Why it works
- Hecarim goes in. His E increases speed and pushes the target with the next attack; his R charges in a straight line and creates a shockwave.
- Viktor controls. His W creates a gravity field that slows enemies; if they stay too long, they're stunned. To verify
- Line damage. Viktor's hex beam (E) crosses the battlefield.
- His R creates an arcane storm that interrupts channels.
Weak points: Long-range poke and CC cleanses; it depends on coordination between both players. To verify
