Rek'Sai into Viegomedium

Overview

Use Rek'Sai's superior early clear speed and mobility to dictate jungle tempo and pressure.
Prioritize early invades and tunnel ganks to deny Viego safe farming and scaling.
Leverage river control and vision to force Viego into reactive, risky plays.

Use tunnels to invade and contest camps early, focusing on lanes lacking flash or crowd control.
Secure river vision and Scuttle control to restrict Viego's pathing and force mistakes.
Counter-gank aggressively when tracking Viego's path toward low-priority lanes to secure early takedowns.

Beware isolated river fights where Viego can use camouflage and stun to initiate resets.
Avoid forced smite fights when Viego is healthy and his is ready to reposition and execute.
Respect moments when Viego's lanes gain priority, increasing risk of counter-ganks or collapsed fights.

Execute a three-camp clear to hit level 3 quickly and pressure lanes or invade before Viego arrives.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to support or counter-gank.
Avoid extended fights early if Viego's is available without a low-health target to punish.

Exploit Rek'Sai's level 3 power spike with knockup to disrupt Viego's engages.
Respect Viego's level 6 spike with execute and reset potential; avoid isolated fights without support.
Use Rek'Sai's faster clear and mobility to force tempo before Viego completes his first fighter item.

Convert early tempo from fast clears and tunnel ganks into repeated invades denying Viego jungle control.
Use vision and river dominance to force skirmishes where Viego cannot safely reset, securing dragons and Rift Herald.
Snowball through objective control and lane pressure to close the game before Viego scales into a reset carry.
