Is Vi a good champion in LoL?

So I started playing LoL for about 2-3 weeks now and ive been playing Vi for a few days. I read online that she isn't that good and worth buying, but I enjoy the playing style and I do pretty good when playing as her. At the same time though I'm not sure if it's because im playing with low rank people that makes her seem good.
Thoughts?

[quote=Rtyu]She's very good as a tanky dps. Jungle and gank a lot. If I compare her to anyone, I'd say she's like J4 but is worse at teamfights but better at rushing a single target and dealing sustained aoe damage and damage in general.[/quote]
She's like a J4 but her ult is harder to mess up a teamfight with xD

If you get good with her it should be fine. Learn to use her ult to focus squishy damage dealers in team fights for easy wins.

[quote=Gyro]Yes she does. Almost every champ is fine in solo q. It depends on skill level.[/quote]

@yomamma1134: Still as you move up she won't be able to compare to high level junglers, like Nunu, Sej, Trundle. But as a beginnger (nice spelling <<&lt you should be fine until you learn some other champs. MY suggestion is learning Draven, most OP champ and EXTREMELY fun. I main him so I could help you out sometime if needed. But if you want to stick with Vi you can but depending on how competitive you are it might not be the best champ.

If people think Vi is crap, prove them wrong. Be the best Vi you could be.

Yeah she is extremely good against like MF, Lux, those no escape champs since she have a long hard engage, play her at jungle not top.

[quote=cool123ter]nope, high level play Vi top is terrible, you lack so much sustain. IMO, you shouldn't buy champs like that until you know what you are doing. I doubt you last hit or CS or ward or secure kills on enemy missteps so you are better off just learning for now and saving up IP or use them on 450 champs.[/quote]
well what i meant was that Vi is good enough at my level to do top since a jungler isnt needed. but as I move up I'll be jungling instead. I just wanted to know if it was a good enough champion.

@officercake well i really enjoy playing her so i was planning to buy her asap as long as she is worth using at higher levels. and i usually use her for top lane because like you said you dont really need to jungle at my level. It seems like she is pretty weak at first, but once you build a couple items shes very good.

She's pretty good if you know how to play her, just practice and get your build right.

If you like playing Vi, then buy her.

I bought her and i really like her, but she's best used in the Jungle, and jungling on low-level isn't really viable so i advise waiting a while to buy her, maybe around 20-ish
