Swain rework is what I want for the Vladimir rework.

Improved gameplay but not too far away from it. Amazing visuals. Just imagine blood lord vlad skin with that kind of effort, it'd be so freaking cool.

Swain rework might as well have BEEN the Vlad Rework. It doesn't feel like Swain at all, and instead of a Glorified Vlad. :/

Yeah old swain was about zoning, new one doesn't feel like a tactician

Well, he still has the tactical advantage of a pin-pointed, damagey version of Ashe's own scouting ability, and his abilities create a zone of hell to deal with, but he's otherwise playing like a Reworked/buffed Vlad.

His old abilities didn't feel like a tactician either, so they got rid of that theme for him.

Word. I don’t want Swains new abilities on Vlad because they won’t fit, but I want them to give Vlad the same treatment.

Unfortunately, it's the same deal with Galio. That kit could've been used on somebody other than Swain.

If Eve rework was borderline porn then Vlad rework should be borderline gore

Am I the only one who doesn't find new Ev that sexy? Ok, yeah, her new splashes are fap-worthy in and of themselves, but IG her VO is a hundred variations of "I like to skin my admirers alive and floss with their tendons!" and TBH it's a bit of a turn-off.

That's my fetish.

Kinda hurts how true this is, but that's what happens when over the years their thematic elements get closer and closer together.

Granted, I still love both of them so it doesnt bother me, but I feel for my fellow Vlad mains who just want to see the man in red get a nice update.

Plot Twist Twist: His kit does the same thing Current Swain does, but with extra utilities tacked on. His Ultimate drops a Birb at target location, but its actually a nest of birbs that deal damage to EVERYONE in range, and if anyone tries to escape, Mama Birb drops an egg-bomb, that deals a DoT.

Unfortunately they aren't going to touch my old main Vlad with a ten foot pole because Riot hates him. it was like eating a bowl of dicks updating him. "Well, we made this champ, so we knew this day would come. Let's get it over with, make it look like we put in effort, and try and forget about it."
