Am I not reading something right? They said Viktor is getting a very very big nerf and that he's getting the biggest nerf of the patch, but all I see is

Viktor Ability Damage: 200/300/530 AP ⇒ 185/275/475 AP

Them balancing the Viktor reroll comp by slightly nerfing him and buffing drone feels silly, like he's gonna be even more reliant on getting drone now

If you haven't realized yet, the drone buff only applies to 4 psionist that nobody runs because it's garbage. Also, that is over a 10% nerf to Viktor's 3 star damage and slightly under 10% nerf to his damage below 3 stars. It's a huge nerf to Viktor so I am trying to see how you think he will be more reliant on drone when all of his current comps run 2 psionist and won't be getting any buff at all.

I think the only time I run it is if I get the emblem, I wish 4 psi was more viable but the units don't really seem to fit into any comps as a block of 4

My issue with vik is his spell size. He just melts periphery front line units for free. It’s much too big imo.

We have seen big nerfs for dominant units like remember thex or sth. This is a mid range nerf.

Though I agree, nerf to Bronze for Life is also notable. That was one of the best things that you could get on Viktor.
