Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1LeBlancViktor has no dash or blink at levels 1-2, so your burst punishes him whenever Death Ray poke misses or Gravity Field isn't set
Level 2LeBlancHis early damage is low relative to scaling, letting your E-Q all-in win most direct trades before level 3
Level 3LeBlancDistortion lets you dash around Gravity Field and burst him before Chaos Storm becomes a threat
Levels 4-5LeBlancThe mobility gap still favors you at levels 4-5 as your kill threshold arrives before his Hex Core evolutions catch up
Level 6LeBlancYour one-shot combo still kills him at level 6 if you catch him without Chaos Storm or Gravity Field ready
First itemLeBlancFirst item burst kills him from stealth before his evolved Hex Core adds enough control to punish your engage
Two+ itemsViktorOnce Chaos Storm zones full fights and Hex Core is fully evolved, his AoE damage and safety net start beating your single-target burst

Early game (levels 1–5)

You win the 1-2 trade because Viktor has no dash or blink and his Siphon Power only reduces incoming damage rather than escaping it — bait his Death Ray poke, then punish with E-Q before he can reposition. His early damage is low relative to his scaling, so most exchanges before level 3 favor your burst if you engage from an angle he can't punish with Gravity Field.
