The mentality of Vayne players

Blåbæret·May 19, 2016·2 votes·536 views

On my journey so far I've encountered a staggering number of Vaynes. Most of the time it's a tryhard who goes Vayne top and ends up feeding, or simply an ADC Vayne that feeds as well. A couple of days ago I got flamed by a Vayne who expected me to soak up damage as Zyra support. Calling me useless when I actually set up a lot of good kill opportunities, but he didn't follow up even once. Vayne is picked so much on my teams that I'm considering banning her every game possible. I've also seen Vayne jungle on several occassions where we of course ended up losing.

Quite frankly, this champ has become a huge problem for me. I've never seen so much flame and trolling coming out of one champ.

Vayne players tend to be a bit more on the arrogant site I think for the fact that once Vayne has her items and/or it's passed the 30 minute mark, the game becomes hers, and that might get to their heads sometimes. Vayne's laning phase is probably one of the weakest among the ADCs as she has no real farming tool, and her base AD sucks. She relies heavily on , attack speed for her real damage potential. I think that peeling, tank-ish supports are better for her. She relies pretty heavily on communication with her support for the early game.

In general I think that short ranged Adc's are hard to both play and support properly in solo queue because you're typically not in synch together. Vayne also has one of the lowest base AD's in the game so trading early without attack speed can be especially scary for newer vayne players that dont quite know how much damage they can do. If your support and you get a vayne for adc, try playing utility supports like nami or lulu or peel supports like ali or leona, having a full blown mage supporting one the squishiest champions in the game makes for high risk game play. I know Zyra was only one example and idk which supports you've played with one, but if only that adc is causing you issue, banning her isnt a bad or unreasonable option.

Exactly. Vayne, especially Early Game where she is weakest, REQUIRES CC to aid her. HARD CC, the kind that stops damage from heading her way.

You grab a Leona or a Braum or a Taric, she does much better.

Especially Braum, since his Passive synergizes with her True Damage 3rd Hit, and his Shield can block incoming damages while he can jump to her, buffing her Defenses. For Ranged Supports, Morgana works a bit with her Spell Shield helping Vayne stay alive (if she's not an idiot... some are) while Zoning for safety. But Zoning does nothing if the Vayne tumbles past the zone to mad-dash the enemy.
