I am so tired of vayne, impossible to build vs her.

As a mainly bruiser/top player it is so freaking annoying. She is the ONLY adc that ever gives me trouble.

There is absolutely ZERO ways to build to counter her vs other adc's. She does so much true dmg + botrk and scaling takes care of your health. So armor/health are a moot point when it gets to late game with a vayne. I mean you can have omen, fh, warmogs, thronmail, she ults and still beats you as long as she has her botrk + phantoms.

You can literally have VAyne down an ENTIRE game, your team stomping her in bot lane, then late game comes around she farmed enough to buy her botrk+phantoms or whatever and wipes out your entire team.

She is by far, in my experience, the best late game adc with her scaling. Give me a super-fed trist/jinx/cait any day of the week over a farmed vayne.

True dmg I wish never made it into the game. Magic dmg, physical, you can balance those around and have ways to build to counter them. Anyone else find her so annoying? Getting to the point I am just going to ban her every game when I am able to because I'mt ired of winning a game and then having a vayne going from nothing to 1 vs 5'ing entire teams with her late game spike.

It's not impossible to build against her.

I see that you don't have many (if any?) games with Vayne. If she is giving you troubles, you should try to play her to see where she is weak.

There is only one stat you can really build against Vayne. It's a bit risky, but if you do it right you can not only stay even with her, but occasionally snowball and stay ahead all game. You know what this stat is?

Damage.

You don't 'build' to counter Vayne.

You counter Vayne the exact same way you counter Yi.

Don't allow them to farm Early, when they are Weak, and Chain CC them to death.

That's it, no big secret. You don't allow Free Farm early, and you end the game before they can get the items they need to swing it. Of course, this requires playing as a Team... so... you know...

All ADCs top are cancer as they hard counter melee tanks (the natural denizens of top lane)

Really? I think you're alone on that in season 6. Vayne would be such a wasteful ban, and I'd side eye anyone who banned her with things like Ekko and Zed out there.

That's just not the experience I've had with Vaynes this season.

Last year around this time she was a **BIG **problem, but now not so much now. She needs to be coddled so much early game to make a difference, and if she doesn't at least hold a decent amount of CS early game, then she's going to fizzle out for the rest of the game. That's really difficult considering how weak she is, and why she needs a support and to be patient.

Lane bullies are Vayne's biggest weakness, so if you aren't bullying her out of lane then you'll pay for it later. I'd take counterplay or counterbuild any day of the week since it's much easier to do in Gold and below. It's not like she has the highest range or powerful disengage either, which is why taking her top is even riskier this season.

I totally agree with you, man. Thx for posting. Shes the only adc I want to ban every single game. I believe her kit is the most broken kit an adc can possibly have. U need to have so much shit to counter her, which in itself tells us that shes the most op adc in the game. When vayne is the adc, u need vision ward, hard cc, etc etc. And, as you pointed out, u cant itemize against her. Delete vayne from the game. Ty v. much.
