Why has Vayne not be nerfed yet

no one knows. shes dominating across the ladder and downright broken at master+ with a 56% winrate and almost 30% pick rate. she has maintained these stats for almost 3 month now, and riot just doesnt do anything about it.

gotta make sure the prestige skin sells and that proplay is exciting to watch

Idk its annoying that u have to use ur ban on it every game

After the whole season 8, you still expect any reasonable action by this company? :D

Riot Blaustoise explained in a video that Vayne is a favorite champion in China. He also explained that China loves Yasuo (which outweighs every other region hating Yasuo), and that Yasuo is his personal favorite champion too! He also strongly pushed the plan to massively buff Zed a while back.

He's in charge of collecting player feedback and conveying it along with representing champion statistics to the other Riot departments, so GG?

Honestly, I don't find him to be a very likable representative of Riot and I don't feel like he's on our side at all. I get the feeling that he's extremely insincere and arrogant from his communications with the community. I don't like the overall influence he seems to have on Riot decision-making either, and that's the real issue I can't look past.

He also said the boards are worthless (then pretended to be apologetic). He constantly 'jokes' about how interacting with players isn't worth his time and how we can fuck off. He takes pride in a 'savage' 'mean girls' 'condescending' sense of 'humor', which feels too natural for him and appears to be thinly veiled animosity. He also says that Riot doesn't need to be data driven, because champion statistics don't really matter as much as he and his team's personal subjective opinions, and he can imagine what we really want regardless of factors like ban rates and our worthless feedback.

[Ps. @Riot Blaustoise, if you happen to read this 'worthless feedback' and want to show that my impression of you is unfounded, then please publicly campaign to reduce the excessive damage and snowballing currently in the game. Players have been crying out about the stale meta of overkill burst-per-second damage outputs, ridiculous ranged/mobile burst potential, rampant true damage, non-niche/non-specific-counter-built resistance penetration, etc. since before the beginning of the season. I will gladly form a new opinion of you if you show that you actually value feedback and can empathize with other perspectives of what the game should be. A great starting point to fixing the game for a lot of players would be to make frontline champions feel durable and for the primary/best counter against armor and magic resistance to be the actual opposing damage type rather than just naturally blasting through defenses. Resistance stacking should be a reasonable option, and when a frontline champion stacks armor, the best counter should be an AP carry (who should be able to itemize DPS/DOT, not just burst), not true damage, armor penetration, etc. Likewise, MR stacking should be a reasonable option in certain situations, and the ideal counter to it should be physical damage. There are other issues in the game, but this would be a very good starting place. Also <1 second time to kill shouldn't exist even against squishy champions. I don't care how fed someone is, snowballing should not be allowed to so easily nullify counterplay.]

You answered your own question: because the real problem is rageblade. I think there's probably an internal argument going on in Riot between "rework/delete rageblade" and "nerf about a dozen champs who are broken with rageblade" and obviously the first side should win.

Making all on-hit effects go off 50% more often than they are designed to is bad enough on its own, but when you combine it with a kit that has resets like Vayne's, you can literally proc a 3 hit passive in under a second using only an ability that has almost no cost or CD.

I don't think rageblade needs to exist at all. Balance on-hitters around or upgrade of choice or something like that. Maybe even for people who really benefit from the hybrid ratios. Straight AS is way, way less abuse prone than Phantom Hit.

Before her q buff and crit item changes, vayne had a completely average winrate and play rate while still building bork rageblade. Why do people keep saying she's so strong currently because of rageblade? She wouldn't be anywhere near as strong if her q just got reverted.

Anyone else find it weird that Vayne AND Riven are both dominating? It's like you're screwed either way. Pick a tank / bruiser? Vayne dominates. Pick a squishy skirmisher? Riven takes ignite, gets level 6 advantage (due to extremely powerful early wave clear) and basically blows you up if you misposition the slightest bit. To be honest, I usually just ban Vayne as even against non tanky people she just shreds. I have no clue what Riot is thinking though. High pickrate and Play rate should be a big red flag. Meanwhile Aatrox is sitting in the dumpster with low play rate and win rate but they won't fix him yet due to "pro play".

Vayne isn't nerfed because vayne is reliant on her teammates to do well. Not to mention she is single target. Stop bitching about adcs when nearly every champion in the game can burst an adc down throughout 90% of the game.
If vayne or any adc gets nerfed then we need to nerf burst damage on EVERY SINGLE other champion.

If you dont want to get shit on by an adc then stop focusing the enemy frontline and focus the adc.
I can assure you if you are getting ur butt beat by a Vayne then your team was losing to begin with.
