Vi's high early pressure and efficient clear let her contest river and force Jarvan IV off camps before he can gank effectively.
Prioritize using (Q) ganks to force enemy flashes and leverage level 6 lockdown to secure picks around dragon and Herald.
Manage fights around Jarvan IV's engage cooldowns, avoiding isolated duels without lane support to capitalize on Vi's stronger dueling.
Jungle Plan
Path to lanes where (Q) ganks can force early flashes, then reset to contest Scuttle or invade Jarvan IV's jungle before he completes his first clear.
Use vision control around dragon and Herald to deny Jarvan IV's engage setups and secure objectives with your superior lockdown.
Track Jarvan IV's pathing to counter-gank his early pressure and punish him when his engage combo is on cooldown or missed.
Danger windows
Jarvan IV's level 2-3 with (E)+(Q) ready creates high gank threat; avoid isolated river fights without lane priority.
When Jarvan IV's ultimate is available, respect his lockdown potential near objectives and avoid overextending without vision.
Low-health clears or forced smite fights put Vi at risk; back off if (Q) is missed or lanes cannot assist quickly.
Early game
Start with a three-camp clear if early lanes lack gank setup, or full clear if lanes can follow up on Vi's (Q) engages.
Fight for first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority and can collapse on Jarvan IV's ganks or counter-ganks.
Avoid extended fights when (E)+(Q) combo is available to prevent being locked down or counter-invaded.
Power spikes
Level 2-3: Vi should punish Jarvan IV's early gank attempts by counter-invading or forcing him off camps when his (E)+(Q) is on cooldown.
Level 6: Use Vi's (R) lockdown to secure picks on immobile targets and contest dragon or Herald fights aggressively.
Post first item: Vi's dueling and objective control strengthen, allowing her to deny Jarvan IV's scaling through aggressive counter-jungling and picks.
Win conditions
Convert early (Q) ganks into forced flashes and lane priority to secure first dragon and Herald vision control.
Use (R) lockdown to isolate and kill Jarvan IV or his laners, denying him jungle access and objective control.
Maintain tempo through efficient clears and counter-ganks to snowball leads into objective control and mid-game teamfight presence.
