Don't pick Vayne into this current meta at all

I mean even Ezreal destroys her in lane with just a tear

She's really only good in this meta with someone who has extreme amounts of peel like Janna

Lol this. Especially now that cait is popular. Had a teammate first pick vayne and got hard countered by cait and blitz. She ended up going 0-5 in lane and 40 Cs down while blitz just roamed and murdered the rest of the lanes with their jungle in 3v1 gangbangs

She can still do good, but she needs a more specific type of comp which requires organization... which is hard to find.

But Vayne hunts darkness.

to be fair lucian never fell into darkness, he was dark to begin with

remember, "let us hunt those who have _fallen _ to darkness"

Lucian may have the upper hand but it isn't impossible for Vayne. You have just played with bad vaynes.

Vayne should not be trading with Lucian assuming Lucian has a bf sword and Vayne has her vamp scepter or bf sword.

IT DEPENDS ON THE SUPPORT. If Lucian is trying to trade while Janna shield is up, then it's not going to workout for Lucian, and vice versa

Straight 1v1 Lucian will probably win but it is not definite. Any condemn and ult tumble displacement will really mess up the culling. Also condemn flash might abuse position mistakes.

Gotta love the balls-deep analysis from silver players on board

I do not fully agree with the elitist argument that rank = skill level, but that is a valid argument that I do not even know a fragment of game knowledge in lane just because I choose to not play ranked. Alright you win the internet

What is right is right doesn't matter what skill he says it at.

Although, he forgot to factor in Lucian's summoners or using bush advantage Vayne mis-kiting or something like that. There are an infinite reasons to how that situation can go wrong. However that doesn't give you the right to shame him because he has little to no playing experience at high elo. As you and I know, sometimes our teammates are like silver players.

As long as you're not an offical E-sport player, you has no right to judge anyone.

normally when its vayne>lucian i avoid trading with him without my support ready,if he is alone and I'm level 6 duelling him really isn't that hard dodge his Q and you basically remove most of his immediate burst

The thing is lucian has a support as well and you might not want to trade, but he does.

according to qtpie, she can do quite well as she can tumble out of lucians q.

TNHA Baritone1 votes

What about the Passive from his Q W E ?

Woook3r1 votes

if you dodge the q you dodge about half his dmg.

MunchCrunchLunch1 votes

no

LaserDeathBlade1 votes

Too bad it only takes like a quarter of Lucian's dmg to outtrade Vayne in lane

That is true for literally everything. The problem is when you can't dodge it. Why do people always assume that all enemies are brain dead and will always fall for the same pattern? Seriously, what about the support? They are not going to just sit right there and let you dodge Lucian ability, false tumble always happen and Vayne was design to be weak in laning phase to begin with. There are more factor of everything in this game, even minion wave can cause problems. Stop assuming that everything will be work out as planned, respect your enemy a little bit more. Nobody is going to just throw out an ability that can be telegraph, people use it with an edge over positioning all the time and if you think that one mechanic will negate everything... it won't.

TNHA Baritone4 votes

You have to respect your enemy more than you respect yourself

I cannot agree with you anymore tbh...people always give you tips to counter and act like its going to go as planned. People are prepared for you to know these types of things to counter them so they will have something planned.

Vayne STFU I'M DIAMOND SMURF I will say as a Bot Lane main (Meaning I play both ADC and Support) Supporting a Vayne is the most stressful thing ever, I swear I get mini heart attacks just trying to keep them alive because they run in 1v2 all the time in lane Supporting is killing my health but at least I climbing cause of it

Supporting is fine, supporting vaynes isn't.

WISE MEN AND WOMEN KNOW NEVER TO PLAY WITH OR AGAINST A Vayne .

I actually see a rise of people taking Vayne with smite and rageblade lately. And, unsurprisingly, being horrible.

Personally I am glad for people why pick Vayne now that Caitlyn is a stong pick again.

I hope you don't mean to not pick Vayne into Lucian at all, though. With a really good amount of intelligence and the right know-how, you can definitely lane against Lucian as Vayne.

Just don't try to trade against him until you get your first couple of items, or until you can all-in and cheese a play.

I wanted to say what you said in the first part but that is just asking for downvotes.

Ah so you must be that salty Lee Sin.

Nyhver1 votes

She can trade vs. him but it has to be the right situation, if she loses lane, she's one of those ADCs that exponentially get worse, she's not an Ez who can avoid grabs and extend his range with Q to CS.

The Deckowner1 votes

what about just don't pick Vayne in general. Statistic shows Vayne players are generally more toxic similar to Riven players.

Ackelope1 votes

I had the horror of playing Kog against a Morgana/Lucian lane in a blind pick normal, and I don't know if I'll ever truly recover.

Granted I could've played many times better, but Lucian's dmg is pretty much through the roof during laning lately.
