thoughts on the Vlad rework.

I'm loving the rework and I think ability wise they took him in a good direction but at the same time they basically gutted his sustain in fights and his HP costs are just downright silly.

Going tanky vlad with around 4000 HP I'm using 400 Hp for a fully charged E and 700 for my W at full.

His sustain is no where near as good without WoTA so it's impossible to sustain through those costs in a fight and if you don't use your E you won't deal any damage at all. It's to the point where my ability costs were hurting more than the enemy, sometimes I would even outtrade myself.

It's nice that they put HP scaling on an ability to encourage HP on vlad but it's pointless if your primary damage hurts you more than the enemy.

Especially since he didn't gain net damage for these changes.

Sustain gutted, damage slightly down.

Less reliable.

Costs are absurd relative to his sustain now.

Didn't fix any of his huge issues that almost prevent him from functioning in a healthy state.


Try item 3116 item 3089 item 3065 as a sustain core, btw.

After that, tank itemization to try to make your HP and sustain worth more. Bonus if it has HP on it.
