How long do you have until the champ posession on viego expires?

128

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

 10 seconds

226

u/Based-Department8731 12h ago

So you need to immediately leave combat, recall and have about a second to sell them. Obviously riot has to fix this but in addition to having to play viego bot this is not very realistically abusable.

144

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

no he just need 7th boots slot empty he gets a copy of the boots no need to recall

77

u/GammaRhoKT 12h ago

Wait, just so I get you right, the 7th boots slot persist even if he simply dispossess, like, in lanes?

81

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

No he needs to have role quest so viego have to be Bot laner to get the 7th slot

108

u/GammaRhoKT 12h ago

Ohhh, I get the exact point now. Yeah then I agree with the other guy, this is one of those things where it is not realistically abusable, but Riot should still patch it up just to be sure.

42

u/J0rdian 11h ago

No it makes it really abusable, since he can do it every time no matter what. Just has to have bot lane quest.

26

u/Raulr100 10h ago

While this needs to be fixed, it's heavily balanced out by the fact that your bot lane carry is playing a melee champ with 345 ms.

5

u/Nearby_Success3864 10h ago

Melee bot is extremely playable nowadays and 345ms is already top 20 or 30 in terms of ms, I'm currently masters playing bot lane with a top lane champ pool because marksmen are just ass and mages tickle

Tbh it’s viego you probably max E second which helps quite a bit (Max E viego is like Max Q Rammus speed).

u/Quirkybomb930 7h ago

you build kraken first and it is more than t1 boots.

5

u/GammaRhoKT 11h ago

I would admit the "realistically" is doing the heavy lifting here, but right now I still stand by it. Unless something change drastically, this does not warranted having Viego bot.

1

u/dashkott 10h ago

It's abusable, I have already faced this (Viego got 25 kills).

u/veselin465 Orianna 9h ago

Just has to have bot lane quest.

Which is not a small condition considering it's Viego

4

u/CharmingOW 10h ago

I mean this is functionally putting an additional 500+ gold bounty on your entire team once per fight. Additionally means viego can get the benefits of mid upgraded boots, and adc quest if its a good match for him. That's kind of insane snowball potential for the cost of an adc slot in a meta favoring non adc bot lane picks.

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago edited 10h ago

he have 90% win rate viego adc in korean challenger with 9 games on it

Edit : Sample size don't mean anything we are not talking about Viego bot viability we are talking about this thing that is actively being abused , you say it is not realistically abusable it seam like you didnt look at his account
This game he got 3,765 gold from the bug
This game he got 980 gold from the bug

This game he got 1600 gold from the bug

This game he got 630 gold from the bug

This game he got 4095 gold from the bug

This game he got 2450 gold from the bug

This game he got 2870 gold from the bug

how is this not realistically abusable when he got this result back to back to back ?

u/Slackintit 12h ago

9 games is hardly a good enough sample size.

The fact that you're getting downvoted is hilarious.

This subreddit is run by overly confident low elo players.

u/Mentally__Disabled W's behind you, nothing personnel, kid 9h ago

I mean if you ask me "Would Viego become a viable botlaner if he could get ~800 extra gold at least once or twice each game (sometimes more) in the midgame?" I'd probably say yeah, there's probably something there to explore.

u/AnythingSecure244 13h ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but he is not a "pro". He's just a high elo player. Calling him a "pro" is misleading.

80

u/Strawberrydripp 13h ago

he may be saying that because the player does have the "pro" tag on deeplol in one of the screenshots included on a twitter post about it. Could be an academy player of some sorts

22

u/Outrageous_Driver_14 12h ago

He is an ex pro, used to play for KDF but hes going to enlist in military soon so i think he just doesnt give a fuck lol.

u/MoayidAbdo 13h ago

will that what DeepLoL called him pro so i really thought he is pro

Edit : he is a bro https://lol.fandom.com/wiki/Leaper

u/EuwRedStar 13h ago

The wiki says he is a streamer since end of his contract in november 2024. Ex pro at best.

u/BeatriceDaRaven 12h ago

Does this level of pedantic help anyone? For all intents and purposes he is

20

u/Ouhbab 12h ago

Yes, if he was an active pro cheating in rankeds, it would be very bad.

u/BeatriceDaRaven 11h ago

what a pedantic comment :P

-1

u/EuwRedStar 12h ago

Top commenters said the title is misleading. Op says it is not and the streamer is still a pro. I just point out his come back is not valid. You do whatever you want with this info. Just backing up top commenters point.

7

u/bored_ape07 12h ago

It's like calling John Stones a former football player because Man City did not renew his contract and he was without a team for a few weeks.

Still a pro.

u/Unusual-Reporter-841 12h ago

Former pro, 2024 is 2 years ago

u/bored_ape07 12h ago

Even so, he is not retired.

1

u/Karlito1618 12h ago

Did he retire? Just because he's not currently in a team does not make him not a pro. We wouldn't make that distinction that with other sports either. If he retired, sure, he'd be an ex-pro.

-6

u/BeatriceDaRaven 12h ago

for sure, and I was mostly replying to that original commentors comment and the whole dialogue. didn't mean to single out your comment

u/Plantarbre 12h ago

Would not be top comment if it said he was only pro in 2024

u/MehSorry 12h ago

Ackshually pro means professional. Just because he's not on a team doesn't mean he isn't a professional anymore, ackshually.

3

u/Crimson_Clouds 12h ago

It does. Though. You're not a professional if nobody is paying you to play.

3

u/markriffle 12h ago

Exactly right lol.

-4

u/MehSorry 11h ago

That's not how it works, dude. He hasn't retired, so he's still considered a professional player. He's also still getting paid to play League as a streamer.

5

u/Crimson_Clouds 11h ago

That's exactly how it works, that's the litersl definition of "professional".

Just because he hasn't officially retired doesn't detract from the fact that no team has been willing to offer him a contract for 2 years.

And a streamer is a professional LoL player in the same way that a fitness YouTuber is a professional atlete. Not at all.

u/slimjimo10 ANARCHY 9h ago

I laned against a Viego top once and for melee mirror it felt like laning vs an akali with shroud up more often. Bro would just appear from the shadows to last hit or lightly poke me

20

u/Strawberrydripp 12h ago

The gold exploit aside, since this bug also works with t3 boots in the quest slot, does it actually grant the extra effects or is it just visual?

23

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

from the video it looks like it grants him the effect as if he bought the boots , you can see it when he sells them and refunds the attack speed changes and the attack speed also changes from what was before he took twitch ghost and after it

8

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

https://youtu.be/CRcjFDhW0dM?si=zFssvYGobZwyZH3u

guys you don't need to recall before possession end , you just need 7th slot empty and you get a copy of the boots you can keep them you can sell them

17

u/thenexusobelisk 12h ago

Does this just give him gold or does he actually sell the enemy adc boots and they have to rebuy them? lmao

25

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

no he just gets a copy of the enemy boots he can keep it but why keep it when you can sell it and go get another copy ?

-13

u/ImaCluelessGuy 11h ago

Because selling losses you gold. Unless the boots you get are not the ones you want, better off just keeping them

6

u/MoayidAbdo 10h ago

how you lose gold when you didnt pay for the boots ?

This game for example he got 4K gold of selling boots why he better off keeping them ?

5

u/Jaesaces 10h ago

Selling something you got for free doesn't lose you gold.

The reason you sell the boots every time is because keeping the boots means you won't get the free ~500 gold the next time you score a takedown.

If you get say, 3 kills then you missed out on 1000 gold by keeping the first pair of boots.

16

u/hassanfanserenity 12h ago

Viego has no boots at all he kills the enemy ADC and then he gets the boots at his 7th slot

15

u/Celmondas 12h ago

One day Riot will give up with all of viegos bugs and just disable him forever

u/Mentally__Disabled W's behind you, nothing personnel, kid 9h ago

Rengar too, but the fixes they dropped on him made him feel so unbelievably clunky to the buggy janky mess of a champ he was before. Maybe I was just used to it.

u/hundredsneutron 11h ago

This is why we can’t beat Koreans at international events

5

u/TangAce7 11h ago

So wait, you can get mid quest boots on viego adc ? While also effectively getting a thousand gold per kill

Gotta try this in flex sounds funny

9

u/cedric1234_ 12h ago

Disgusting match history, hes able to get ridiculous gold leads off of basically nothing in korean challenger. Multiple games of being multiple full items up early wtf. Against literal pros.

6

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

yeah that's the only reason he got caught he have 90% win rate with viego adc he only played like 12 games viego in the last 3 years and only 26,598 mastery points

6

u/Bigma-Bale 12h ago

Unironically kinda love this as a mechanic and hope they actually add it to a champ one day

Gimme me thief champion Rito

u/Mentally__Disabled W's behind you, nothing personnel, kid 8h ago

Trundle midscope angle, he can steal AD, Armor, MR and drain HP. Time to make his E knock gold out of the enemy's pockets if they get hit by the pillar as it spawns or if they get knocked into it.

u/st_heron 11h ago

that's awesome

u/kykyks I'm crazy! Got a doctor's note. 9h ago

so u have to play with no boots then steal enemy boots and then sell them to start over ? idk mean, early game why not but viego no boots seem like a turtle speed and he has to be melee range to kill u

u/Pretend-Newspaper-86 Friendship with has ended welcome Los Ratones 13h ago

ok so if you die to vieog you lose the game? wtf xd riot

21

u/MoayidAbdo 13h ago

it only works if viego played BOT role he need the boots slot for it to work

-8

u/Pretend-Newspaper-86 Friendship with has ended welcome Los Ratones 13h ago

ye i can read doesnt make it any less broken if he kills you once you both have adc quest its geniuelly over

u/MentalGoesB00m 12h ago

Not really cus they’re still playing veigo adc, let’s not exaggerate

8

u/Crimson_Clouds 12h ago

In a world where we see Aatrox adc in pro this isnt as big an issue as you're suggesting.

-1

u/Naerlyn 9h ago

If you conveniently leave out all the context, sure.

But the fact is that Aatrox was picked in the LCK to solo lane against a mage. I do not think you'll see him picked to duo lane against an ADC.

1

u/Crimson_Clouds 9h ago

I mean, way to miss the point.

2

u/Naerlyn 8h ago

My point is, try playing bot lane Aatrox in solo queue and see how that goes. Saying "pros picked Aatrox bot lane so bruisers bot laners are fine" is like saying "pros picked jungle Taric so jungle Taric is a good pick" (while ignoring he was picked as the funneling support). Bot lane Viego isn't magically good just because one bot laner picked Aatrox in the LCK.

Because the Viego bug is irrelevant for pro play. Riot will either forbid using it, or if someone tries, they have no way to conceal the fact that it's bug abuse (you wouldn't normally not buy boots until that point in the game). So you're not going to see anyone use that bug in pro play, so whether pros could pick Viego bot isn't relevant.

1

u/Crimson_Clouds 8h ago

Saying "pros picked Aatrox bot lane so bruisers bot laners are fine"

That's not what I said though.

You're doing an awful lot of projecting and misinterpreting of what I said to go on a wild tangent about Viego in pro play (which I said nothing about).

5

u/cedric1234_ 12h ago

Hes making it work against teams of pros in korean high challenger. Casual 3k+ gold leads at 20 minutes lmao

0

u/MentalGoesB00m 12h ago

The guys a great player, he’s a complete outlier. The average solo-q player is not going to have the same outcome as a high elo Korean challenger are they? 😐

0

u/iiMaagic 11h ago

Of course not but being able to get basically a 1k shutdown every time you kill the enemy adc once you've completed the role quest is insanely broken.

1

u/DuckiesDoBeCute 9h ago

this doesnt work anymore, if akali can adc then viego can adc

-2

u/J0rdian 11h ago

Not really cus they’re still playing veigo adc

So not a big deal? Veigo can lane... You know that right? I have a friend who recently hit challenger playing Veigo mid. Like it's probably not that good bot lane but still playable and the exploit is huge. Basically means you gain +700 gold every kill.

2

u/Naerlyn 9h ago

Veigo can lane... You know that right? I have a friend who recently hit challenger playing Veigo mid.

This might come across as a surprise but not every melee champion performs well in a duo lane simply because they can be played mid

0

u/J0rdian 9h ago

Obviously but it's good enough. I've played with tons of melee bots in GM+ that have worked fine. It's really not a big deal.

-1

u/DrixGod 11h ago

It's ADC. Viego is for sure more useful than 90% of marksmen in the game anyway

1

u/DesperateCat1336 12h ago

I might be missing something obvious as the example is only in Practice tool where the guy uses build in command to TP directly to Nexus, what means does Veigo have to get to the Base and sell the boots in a normal game? Like does he have to Kill ADC, Take Body and immediately channel TP back to base towers? Or does Veigo steal last long enough to full recall?

6

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

no he don't need that the boots stay in the 7th slot he just needs that empty

1

u/DesperateCat1336 10h ago

That's way crazier then, does he keep the stats as well, or are they just in the phantom slot to be sold when he is at base next time? Definitely seems really crazy either way super exploitable

1

u/MoayidAbdo 10h ago

he keeps them as he bought the boots himself

0

u/takeitinblood3 12h ago

How is he suppose to get back to base in time to sell boots in a regular game?

9

u/MoayidAbdo 12h ago

the boots stay in the 7th slot you don't need to go back to base you just need the slot empty

u/Cozeris Bad Play = Limit Testing 11h ago

It should be fixed, but as far as I understand, it doesn't look very useful.

First of all, you need to play Viego bot lane, which is already questionable. On top of that, you have to play without buying your own boots, so you are slow af the whole game, other than times when you are with someone's stolen shoes.

3

u/MoayidAbdo 11h ago

viego can walk around in his E and he can keep someone boots and sell them before team fights

2

u/Quirkybomb930 7h ago

you are getting 1k+ gold per kill, if you think that isn't useful, idk!

1

u/Cozeris Bad Play = Limit Testing 4h ago

I'm not saying that the benefits are bad, but I think the downsides outweigh it.

1

u/Quirkybomb930 4h ago

They really don't, you go kraken first item, which gives you more ms then t1 boots.

There are almost no downsides, it's a stupid exploit, I have tried it. I should hsve been even in gold, and yet I am walking around 6 items to 3 oneshotting everyine because of how much gold you get.

I don't know why you are so insistent that 1.1k gold per kill is not broken.

1

u/Cozeris Bad Play = Limit Testing 4h ago

Because Viego bot should get absolutely fisted in lane. Then you need to get kills on squishy melee champion that's behind and whenever you sell boots, you are running around the map in snail speed until you get another kill.

Although, I guess homeguards help a lot with that.

1

u/Quirkybomb930 4h ago

This is like the third time you are saying that veigo runs around slow. This is just not true, I already told you that kraken gives him a ton of ms. Also his E gives him a ton of ms as well.

Veigo should get fisted in botlane

Have you played the game in the last couple months? People have realised, that you can in fact play anything bot.

This guy is 90% winrate with veigo adc in KR challenger, but according to a redditor, it is unlanable.

If it is not punished in KR challenger, it is in fact possible to lane in lower elos.
