You know what would be a really cool Vladimir rework?

Vladimir's Sanguine Pool to be a short cooldown toggle ability. Instead of losing 20% of your health per cast with high cooldowns in between Vladimir would be better off (with his other abilities being reworked to compensate) with a toggle pool, "invulnerability" which drains 12% of his maximum health every 1 second but has an inbuilt spellvamp effect on this one ability only which heals you for 50% of the damage you're dealing with it.

I might make another post about by ideas about all his abilities and how he they could be reworked later.

Not likely, you would have to make adjustments to how his abilities work, cause Health cost abilities don't by default arn't uncastable if you would normally wouldn't have the health, and you can't kill yourself with an ability cast. (health will be a 1)

But the real problem is that his Pool would simply have way too much up time. (less you think Fizz's troll poll isn't frustrating.)

Yes. I agree his other abilities need to be changed. I haven't looked into how his other abilities would work with this.
Make it uncastable if you don't have enough health. Easy.
12% is a lot of health lost per second. It costs more than it would at the ability's current state. Which is 20% for 2 seconds. This can mean that if you want to use it for 3 seconds it's going to use up to 36% of maximum health. 4 seconds = 48% health etc. This basically means that you need to use it for damage if you don't want to lose almost 100% of your health in 7 seconds.
Fizz's pole costs mana and the reason why Fizz is so stupid is because he has a lot of mobility in his kit on top of his invulnerability. Vladimir presumably won't and doesn't currently have any mobility.
