Viktor vs Kled

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize scaling through safe farming and wave control to outlast Kled's early aggression.
Respect Kled's early all-in threat and avoid giving him easy engage windows by maintaining spacing.
This is a scale-versus-snowball matchup where Viktor must survive early pressure to reach impactful item and ability evolutions.

Trading pattern

Trade short with (E) poke plus (Q) shield and only commit when (W) is available for peel.
Punish Kled after he wastes (W) burst or misses (Q) tether by stepping forward for damage.
Avoid extended trades when (W) is up and his remount is available to prevent lethal all-ins.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) tether is active and (W) burst is ready; these signal lethal all-in windows.
Avoid fighting near Kled's remount state where he can turn fights unexpectedly.
Stay alert for Kled's level 6 (R) engage from fog of war and prepare to disengage or reposition.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to cautiously poke with (E) and shield with (Q) while avoiding extended trades.
Avoid fighting near Kled's remount opportunities to prevent being baited into overcommitments.
Keep (W) ready for disengage against Kled's burst trades and punish his missed (Q) pulls.

Power spikes

Respect Kled's level 2-3 all-in power; avoid trades unless (Q) is dodged and (W) is down.
Use Viktor's level 6 (R) to create pick or defensive windows rather than forcing blind engages.
After first item and ability evolution, increase wave pressure and trade confidence to deny Kled farm.

Win conditions

Survive early pressure by respecting Kled's engage cooldowns and remount mechanics.
Scale safely to first item and evolve (E), then use superior poke and zone control to deny Kled farm.
Use (R) ultimate for teamfight impact and to control space, turning the tide in longer games where Viktor excels.
