Is Vayne really that bad? There is no other champion that give people a hard time?

I maybe run into a Vayne here or there, but not enough to the point I see the complaints of her match up with actually playing against her or as her. In those matches in which people are steamrolled by Vayne, there have to have been way more factors that caused you to lose than just Vayne being OP in from your viewpoint. I just want someone to illustrate why exactly Vayne is tough from their viewpoint without bias. I play ADC a lot and many marksman champions have their own way of outplaying people once you get it down.

she herself isnt hard to fight. land any form of hard CC and she is basically dead.

the issue lotta people have is one of 2 things.

kiting with her low cd Q (and the invis it gives when she has her R) or you cant build against her.

typically vs an adc u build tanky, but as silver bolts does % health true damage, you are screwed no matter if you build armor or health.

Ahri is ALMOST as popular, and wins a greater percentage of games. Considering Ahri's been this way for a damn long time, I'd call her a bigger issue.

Likewise, Jinx is better at winning games than Vayne, and has a significantly lower variance in her match ups (Like seriously, her strongest ADC counter pick is Ashe at a 49.96 win rate), while still being in a large proportion of games.

Janna is crazy dominant as well right now, rocking an incredible win and play rates along with having no poor match ups bot lane, similar to Jinx.

I've been playing this game for 5 years, and up until a few months ago have I never seen Vayne with a good win rate and play rate. I'm more than OK with chalking it up to the current meta, unlike Jinx and Ahri who've been dominate so consistently, especially considering she has match ups that do quite well against her.
