Why is Vayne so Broken Late Game?

Seriously this needs to stop! If Vayne is even slightly fed early game, she turns into a monster that can pretty much one shot anyone on the team. She seems way too broken and there seems to be no effective counter for her insane damage and speed. Suggestions?

Every single ability of her is broken. Passive: A Vayne is chasing you and you think you can escape? Good luck with that. Q: Dash with which you can dodge any skill shot, built-in Lich Bane that scales with AD and ridiculously small CD. W: Every 3 hits you get at least double the damage and it can't be countered because it's TRUE damage. E: Sorry, but you aren't getting close to me. R: Who needs to buy AD when I have my ult and 1 sec of invisibility when I Q?

Her insane late game is to make up for her short range and worse-than-average early game. She inherently relies on 1v1's and picks because she herself is very vulnerable to being picked off in a teamfight. If in ranked/draft make sure you counter pick her with a good dive champ like Vi, J4 or Jax, and if in blind make sure to keep her down early game. If neither is possible attack speed reduction items and staying grouped will get you far everytime.

If Vayne is even slightly fed early game

One of the worst early game ADCs shouldn't be getting fed early. Vayne shouldn't be able to get off her silver bolts in lane unless you all in her when she has full HP, Vayne should be able to be poked via abilities/AAs without being in range to retaliate during lane.

she turns into a monster that can pretty much one shot anyone on the team.

3 shot. It takes gettingher bolts off to kill someone because she builds more AS than AD/Crit.

much one shot anyone

Armor and not Armor + massive HP is your friend. her bolts do percent hp so something like randuins/sunfire against her is less effective.

uncounterable damage and instant stealth with dash, this is the reason. She has also a bad early, so this should balance

Lots. Of. CC. Seriously, you can stop any champion, no matter how strong or mobile, by getting them alone, locking them down and crunching them before they have a chance to escape. I've seen many good vayne mains and, yes I do admit she's strong late game, I rely them being greedy and extremely careless about their safety, sometimes getting them under turret long enough to kill them if not do an insane amount of damage and hope to finish her off.

She is op but her being op at the end game makes up for her poor performance early game. If you dont want vayne to carry bully her early game. Plus she is very fragile so she relies on team mates to support her.
