Didn't Riot nerf Vayne's Q so she wouldn't burst squishies anymore?

Because it seems like nothing has changed. She's still AA + Q + AAing squishies for almost their entire health bar after getting 2 items. On top of that she's even better at dealing with tanks than before because Riot felt the need to "compensate" her with buffs to her W. Her build path is exactly the same as before, with tons of crit and burst, so nothing changed there. Let's not forget the extended ult duration buff that no one asked for but we got anyway because reasons. I know Rito has a boner for ADCs and everything, but they're supposed to be the DPS class. An ADC with better burst than most mages should never happen.

ADCs kill champions really fast what do you expect?

Vayne's ult gives her 30 / 50 / 70 bonus AD Her Q resets her basic attack and adds AD scaling bonus damage on top of everything Her W adds a significant amount of true damage on top of everything

All of that is icing on the cake when it comes to killing squishies. Any champion with a crit build puts out high DPS. There is no way Vayne will ever be bad at killing squishies.

Then why can she ignore my armor and hp?

Yi and Vel'Koz do a lot more true damage than Vayne do you think they are a problem too?

I mean, the amount they get off their AD or AP respectively is more than Vayne gets from hitting a 5k HP tank.

So what is the problem exactly? Are Vayne players going full tank and bursting everyone?

Vayne rightclicks you to death. Vel'koz has to aim all of his abilities to damage you. Yi rightclicks you to death as well, but at the moment he is a joke more than a champion because he runs at you and dies. Vayne constantly repositions while turning invisible

Wow it's almost like the most problematic mechanics on Vayne are not her W at all

Maybe not "the most" but definitely it's a pain in the ass.

Yes there is, turn her into the late game DPS monster that she should be by giving her another mini-rework.
