MY idea behind this build is to get a Mage that is Strong enough to Kill ADC's, Mages and Assassins in one combo, be tanky enough to not get One-shot by Assassins, be fast enough to disengage from fights you cannot win and have enough staying power so that in a fight it takes more than one enemy to take you down. This build manages that by giving you around 3000 health thanks to Rod of Ages, combining you Q with Lichbane to deal massive amounts of damage in a short amount of time, granting you above average movement speed thanks to Lichbane and giving you decent staying power thanks to the passive of Rod of Ages and Riftmaker’s omni vamp.

Your Upgraded Abilities only add to this playstyle. Your Q gives you additional staying power thanks to the additional shield and the movement speed helps you to chase or disengage in equal measure. Your upgraded W gives all of your abilities a slow which helps with chasing enemies or running away from those who you are ill suited to fight against in a straight up slugging match (ex: Garen). Your E gives you additional damage and excellent wave clear allowing you to move around the map and not miss a lot of frm. Your ult moves faster, thats good.

For all of you historians out there i am trying to recreate the dreadnaught effect just with Victor.
