Riot decided to redo Viktor in League of Legends in the direction of Arcane
Previously, when the Viktor version was first, Rework created a general of the Emperor. Viktor can be compared to a League of Legends version of Victor Von Doom in Fantastic Four: Possessing powerful power, always carrying a mysterious mask, half the first half, ready to sacrifice everything to achieve the goal. The names of these two characters are almost the same.

However, after the Arcane series (1 & 2) was released, everything turned. Viktor was revealed in the film and many comments from Riot said that these details could be Canon for the game. However, when Riot decided to reward Viktor in the game in the direction of creating Arcane, a wave of protest had exploded.

According to the observation, Viktor's new shape will be somewhat taller, thinner than the old version and suitable for Viktor Arcane. In addition, the new Viktor's skill set will almost have nothing to change. However, a series of Viktor's costumes will have to follow a new shape that according to many viewers is “losing the characteristics of Viktor”.
For example, Viktor Cong Tu will lose a familiar mask that has been characteristic and makes the aesthetics of this skin line. Or the new Viktor series made this general look like a student than a scientist.

The League of Legends community feels annoyed with Riot
For League of Legends gamers, Viktor is currently very good and exudes the familiar atmosphere of this general – a crazy scientist and becomes a tyrant of his own empire. Meanwhile, Arcane design is only a original version of Viktor, not clearly shaping the style and thought of the general later.
“I am not a Main Viktor but I understand the thoughts of this champion who loves this general. Viktor Arcane is great but should only stop at the film. Viktor Arcane is good and no one denies but does not reflect what has formed Viktor in the game,” a player commented on X.
This version may disappear permanently
Of course, if Riot has made a decision, they will not change. And even if not, players will be able to receive the new Viktor in the near future and officially broke up with what has created this champion in the past.
