theyre abilities are useless mostly everyone plays by passive effects. longboat ride is weak. the passive charge by olaf is weak. why do they get stunned when their ult dies? when one of them dies camera jumps to fountain and you lose the track of the fight and die. compared to other supports they are weak easily countered. and if i hear that theyre good for farming why are assasins equally good? that is the reason we need damage types in this game
It seems like you aren’t used to the very specific playstyle that tlv has and are complaining because you are playing them in a less thanoptimal way.
Tlv is dependant on it’s playstyle wich makes them hard to play by default and in some cases or maps you need coordination from your team wich is hard to get by in solo que and lower ranks.
To explain further on the playstyle tlv is a specialist instead of an assasin and should be treated as such, they are excelent in gathering exp from all lanes, each viking has enough damage on their own to be a threat to enemy structures if left alone and their burst damage when taking their q ability is enough to 100-0 squishier targets they’re hit by all 3 vikings.
Simply tlv is not weak they’re one of the stronger heroes in the game but they require lots and lots of practice to get the correct playstyle right in a way so that it benefits you.

missed my point. im talking about how the passives and abilities are weak when you compare them to other supports. and that the very hard gameplay doesnt pay off. passives are weak abilities are weak only thing that i dont find weak is the revive ability. the fact that there are three of em doesnt healp because even olaf the most tanky one gets chewed through by a assasin in a 1v1 (as in 3v1 in this case). i think some of the passives should be normal for each viking normally. why wouldnt olaf stun every charge if you cant control it? why shouldnt Baleog have attack speed and range increased if he dies quickly. why wouldnt erik run and heal normally because he is even worse than murky. and include that you have no mount and theyre running cant get you anyhwere if someone rides next to u. it can even barely get u out of trouble when ur in battle. and the fact that longboat is destroyed so easily does no damage but they get stunned when its destroyed. why wouldnt tychus get stunned or ragnaros when they do the big transformation ability? TLV are outdated compared to other characters especially supports.
Seems like you missed my point, vikings are not a support they are a specialist by the definition of the old character rankings.
Vikings is a soaking hero that has a focus on map control and safetly picking of rotating targets, not running into teamfights with the rest of the team.
Stop thinking and playing vikings like a support or an assasin they are a specialist and you should treat them like one.
