Item Build

Vi is one of the few champions in TFT that can realistically hold nearly any item and be viable. However, she is best used when she is a composition’s main tank champion. This means that players will want to prioritize tank items on her, with Bramble’s Vest, Ionic Spark, Dragon’s Claw and Titans Resolve being the best items for her. However, unlike other champions, it’s not vital to grab three S-tier items for her best in slot. In fact, since she is so versatile players can focus there item attention elsewhere knowing that whatever items are left for Vi will be good regardless.

Positioning

Vi is a tank champion and as such should be exclusively in the front row of a team composition. Even if she is a carry champion for a player with damage items, since she dashes to the backline anyways, it does not matter if she initially is in the front line. She is one of the best front line champions in the game because she buys so much time of the other champions in a team composition. If players want to keep her safe because they have other strong frontline threats, players can put Vi in the second row in very niche circumstances.

Top Comp

Vi works best in Bruiser focused comps or Enforcer focused comps. The best performing comp in the current meta game happens to be one that is bruiser focused. In this comp Vi plays the roll of the main tank and acts as a pseudo carry alongside Renata Glasc. This comp maxes out on the Bruiser trait and activates the Enforcer trait. This makes sure Vi gets as much value as possible.
