i have picked up vlad recently..

i got things that i find hard on him.. not the d but.. i cant cs gud on him.. is it worth taking ad marks to fix that? im trying to learn how to harras and still cs i find it quite difficult.. Should i just focus more and cs at the beginnig or is the harras important too? i tend to go zhonyas no matter what in each game because i like to w8 for cds and then surprise people with my sustain and kinda tank meanwhile cause people will often w8 for me to get back from golden state (warriors.. btw did they win the finals? :P) Its there someone who have had success with a other build path?

If u guys got any gud advice u would just like to share pls share them with me..

I have won 5 out of 6 in ranked by now.. One game i have carried 4v5.. But the rest of the games i feel like i got lucky.. That being said that when i feed i feel very usefull in teamfights still.. thats why i like him.. But i have some things i cant get right..I also seem to be very very very slow.. i have flash ghost for him because of that.. but i still feel like im just too slow.. is it positioning? And the last thing is that i cant really ult and then follow up in lane.. they just run.. obviously.. u got any tips?

No it is not worth while... you just need to practice last hitting with low damage autos and you will be fine.

Ok.. But i also find his aa animations soewhat annoying.. Not like karthus like but still harder than other midlaners..

They are kind of weird compared to other midlaners but you'll get used to them after a while. Same as last hitting just practice.

i wanna go cdr on runes.. i feel like cdr is key on him and cdr is hard to get on him since all cdr items also gives mana

He is mana less so really he just needs to wait for cooldowns which are long on him at lower levels so that is probably a good idea.

I wouldn't main vlad. He's kinda finicky about his opponents. Though it's better picking him into match ups that can't easily punish Vlad Early. If your playing him Top lane, play him against a low damage tank. If mid, pick him against someone who can't all in you, and goes Oom easily.

Haven't seen much talon. Vlad does decent against Zed because his Pool can actually nullify the death mark. Just make sure you have your pool ready when they do engage. If playing him Mid lane I would recommend taking Flash and ghost. The extra Mobility summoner will help compensate for your lack of innate mobility. And if you need more mobility on top of that, get distortion boots.

Vlad spikes after level 9. If you have WotA and maxed out Q. That the prime of his sustain. Unless you want to get spirit visage on top of that, but you lose damage, where he benefits most from building AP.

i usually get an early fiendish codex and CD runes and try to farm with Q. doesn't get you a lot but you do have good sustain,

is it worth getting 15% cdr in runes? i feel like cdr is very key on the bloodsucker

I haven't experimented much with Runes because I only have a few Runes/Rune pages.

I personally go with AP Glyphs and quints cause that's what I have. I wouldn't think it work that well if you had no early game oomph. You might try MR Glyphs in the AP match ups, because the reduced damage would Greatly benefit your sustain and trades. But you would need to experiment.

i just get 5% CDR from runes you get enough from Will of ancients and spirit visage.
