Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Use efficient clears and worked ground to reach river early and control chokes against Vi's dash engages.
Prioritize using (R) to create cross-map pressure and secure objectives, offsetting Vi's early gank threat.

Jungle Plan

Full clear camps efficiently to maintain tempo and arrive early at river for Scuttle control when lanes can assist.
Use (W) and (E) to zone Vi from jungle entrances and punish his dash when he attempts invades or ganks.
Prioritize objective setups by cutting off Vi's access with (R) and coordinate with lanes that have priority before contesting dragons or Herald.

Danger windows

Vi's early level 3-6 window is dangerous when (Q) and (R) are available, so avoid isolated river fights without vision.
Be cautious during low-health clears or when (W) and (E) are on cooldown, as Vi can capitalize on your reduced peel and mobility.
Avoid contesting objectives if Vi's nearby lanes have priority or if you lack vision control around the pit.

Early game

Start with a clear path preserving worked ground to maximize clear speed and arrive early for Scuttle control.
Contest first Scuttle only when nearby lanes have priority to avoid being collapsed on by Vi.
Avoid extended fights early unless you have vision and can trap Vi in narrow jungle paths with (W) and (E).

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) for cross-map plays and objective control; use this to force picks or reset fights before Vi can lock down targets.
First completed mage item boosts poke and wave clear, enabling safer objective pressure and denying Vi's early invade attempts.
Level 3 grants full (Q)-(W)-(E) combo, allowing punishes on Vi's predictable dashes but avoid committing without lane setup.

Win conditions

Convert clear speed and worked ground control into early river dominance and secure first Scuttle with lane priority.
Use (W) and (E) to punish Vi's dash attempts and force him off camps, denying his scaling and objective pressure.
Leverage (R) to create numbers advantages around dragons and Herald, enabling safer teamfights and objective captures.
