Vlad Buffs (I did the math on it)

So when I saw the vlad buffs coming in 7.3 I wasn't sure, although riot stated, if it was a buff or not. The bonus ad is obviously a buff. But they increased his q ap ratio by 5 percent and his base damage up a bit. Ok so its better normally but Bonus damage reduced from 100% to 85%, I started worrying that he might not have op half healthing capability anymore so I did the math using 20 40 60 80 and 100 ap This is on his bonus dmg on an empowered Q Before the changes Vlad lvl 1 Q 75 + 11 = 86x2 = 172 Vlad lvl 2 Q 90 + 22 = 112x2 = 224 Vlad lvl 3 Q 105 + 33 = 138x2 = 276 Vlad lvl 4 Q 120 + 44 = 164x2 = 328 Vlad lvl 5 Q 135 + 55 = 190x2 = 380 After the changes Vlad lvl 1 Q 80 + 12 = 92x1.85 = 170.2 Vlad lvl 2 Q 100 + 24 = 124x1.85 = 229.4 Vlad lvl 3 Q 120 + 36 = 156x1.85 = 288.6 Vlad lvl 4 Q 140 + 48 = 188x1.85 = 347.8 Vlad lvl 5 Q 160 + 60 = 220x1.85 = 407

So I determined it is only a nerf if you have low ap and you have lvl 1 q. Everything above that is better with the changes.

FORMULAS **BEFORE THE CHANGES ** 120 + 30x + 1.1d (d is the amount of ap you have, x is the level of your q) AFTER CHANGES 111 + 37x + 1.11d

You can even put them into a graph and see where one over takes the other. At d = 200 this is exactly lvl 1.

No problem. I was just in fear that I could no longer run vlad with stormraiders and he would become a poke until kill mage due to him not having burst.

DUDE BEST POST EVER lol I was just about to ask if anyone got the calculations. he seems to be more of an early game champ after the slight buff

Early game? The stats grow to be better and better the higher the q lvl is and the higher your ap is. He will have a better time in the early game after like lvl 4 or 3 (Whenever you lvl up q second) But his late game will ROCK harder than it does already.

ya late game will be fun if the match last that long, im in bronze most ppl /ff or /remake but at times I do get a nice 40 min game

I wonder how item 3116 will be on him since people keep telling me to not use it cause of the nerf to it lol

Still use it.People in bronze don't understand that Vlad NEEDS it to win games. Late game i usually have 25 - 35% cdr unless i buy lucidity ( Which is if it gets late game and we are still losing). Rylais with spamming q op.
