Vi Counters Classic 26.22

Wherever you stand, Vi has to close that distance on her own feet, and a Noxious Trap already in the ground between you slows her before she arrives. The mushroom waits for a foot, so the narrow parts of the lane are worth more charges than the open ones.

That slow off a detonated mushroom lands on a champion already mid-charge, and Move Quick's sprint holds its bonus even when she connects. Distance opens from both ends at once. Vault Breaker arrives where you were standing a moment ago.

Keep the charges for ground she has to run through, and lay them well before the fight starts. Assault and Battery knocks aside the minions in her path, so a wall of them between you and Vi does nothing to turn her away.

Jax's half of the lane suits him, and Vi has to come stand in it before anything of hers connects. Ten strikes deep, Grandmaster's Might leaves him at his fastest, so every second she holds still in front of him works against her.

Health on Jax's bar is larger than his health items explain, since Equipment Mastery reads the attack damage and ability power those items carry. Blast Shield only comes on once one of Vi's abilities has landed. A whiffed engage arrives with no shield at all.

Walk straight back in after the knockback. Vault Breaker knocks you backwards on the way in, and every second spent walking that back is a second Grandmaster's Might is not counting. Close the distance and let the strike run start.

Inside the last few steps of Vi's run, Garen is already standing at the range Demacian Justice needs. She spends her whole approach putting herself there. The reach on the execute is not a problem when she is the one closing it.

Vi's Assault and Battery ends with her target knocked into the air. Courage answers that with Crowd Control Reduction while its shield holds. The same shield reduces the damage arriving through it. Both halves ride the same cast. Garen wants it up before she gets there.

Missing health on Vi's bar feeds Demacian Justice directly. She has to stand next to Garen for her own damage to happen, which puts her inside everything he has. Courage asks for a more careful moment. Press it as she opens and the shield is still holding when Assault and Battery finishes.
