How is vlad healthy gameplay? @RiotRant

Caytheles··2 votes·877 views

This is a Rant to riot.

I just wrecked a vladimir with Sion... However,,, Vlad buys one Spellvamp item and he becomes unkillable with free sustain and high dmg, You really made a bitch ass champion for top Riot. Good job, Vladimir is to top lane what Fizz is to mid lane, Cancer.

Also lets not forget that

  1. Free sustain after first item

  2. High dmg with an ult that amps dmg not letting you all in him or even fight him,

  3. He can dodge ULTIMATES, with his Pool. ( Also as sion, i used Q AFTER he pooled, i held it to its max duritation but vlad was STILL pooled, completely negating one of my abilities, that he can use in the next 5 seconds... ) But good job working on People like Garen and Darius.. yknow. THE FUCKING CHAMPIONS THAT WERE FINE? The champions that people were able to use normally and carry games? man. you guys have gotten on a new type of low. Lets not forget that Everyone on the PBE said No to Sated Devour because it was op. But you dont really care about the players do you? you just want to pull stuff out of your ass. Hey!!! Why not....

Wait... just hold on a second...

Instead of reworking champions that people play on a daily basis.... why dont we work on whats NEGATIVELY effecting the game... Like Spellvamp in Items, Taric being forgotten for years because you were too busy with Juggernauts, Balancing Riven to where if she gets one kill then she can own the game, Making urgot played instead of working on DhaMa,

git gud

if you go to Q vlad after he's already pooled and still miss because pools lasting longer than the wind up that's your own fault

Its my fault that a champion can stay pooled longer than the casting of one of my Abilities? lol get real, I did it because i just used slow on him before he pooled so he would still be in Radius. Riot needs to either Shorten he Duration of the Pool because Sions Q is one of the Longest cast abilities other than Vel'koz ult. Or make it so that Blood Circles around Vlad dealing damage to anyone around him,

Also "Git gud" Typical idiot player Phrase, Its almost as pathetic as playing Vlad XD

Vlad's Sanguine Pool has a 26 CD at rank 1 with no CDR. If you fail to force him to pop it before you all in him then that's your fault. Also, Sion is a Tank. Vladimir WRECKS Tanks with his powerful sustain. This is like complaining that using your silence as Soraka did nothing to stop Yi while he used Highlander to just run past it and murder your face.

Vladimir rarely receives buffs. He's like Poppy and Yorick. If he ever saw pro play they would destroy his numbers in a heartbeat.

The only real counter to vlad are champs like XinZhao Irelia Riven which can keep jumping on him over and over again as soon as he steps close to the wave (denying that way his sustain). So the only way to outplay a vlad is having a double engage, otherwise is almost impossible to deal with him.

Yes easily it's YOUR fault.

If the pool lasts longer than q, maybe don't q? Maybe wait a bit to time it? If he's always avoiding your ultimate with pool maybe wait out his pool?

Vlad has some of the longest cds in game pre 9 as well.

Sions game play is just as "unhealthy"

I'll say it again

git gud

Vlad just needs a hardcore rework. He is a fun champion, but if he is strong in even the slightest way, then he suddenly becomes OP. That is why he isn't buffed. I don't remember when his last buff was, but Riot knows better than to fiddle with him too much I think.

Well yeah he is a fun champion knowing that

"Even if i get stomped..... Will of the Anchients will Carry me!!!"

Literally what all vlads do, Losing lane? winning Lane? GET MORE SPELLVAMP!!!

he is kinda like mord b4 this rework, rito just prefers not to buff him or nerf him cus they too dont know how to deal with him, expect a vlad rework that will change him completly and makes him shit to play then

Two things you have to understand about Vlad to beat him.

1: He's a carry, not a bully. His early game is laughably weak (10 second cooldown on q level 1, 6 second cooldown on an E that kills you, 24 second cooldown on a W that takes 20% of current health...) If you play someone that can bully vlad hard early on, anyone that can, he'll suffer. Irelia, Swain, old Darius (donno about new), Riven, and even Teemo will murder him in lane if they knew how to play.

2: Once Vlad hits critical mass, he becomes a nightmare. This means that if you're playing another champion who doesn't do much early on and just wants to wait until level 11-13 and have an item or two under your belt to start doing things.. Vlad will give you trouble. He'll have his own items and have unlocked the potential of his kit, which is scary.

Vlad is, quite frankly, how carries in league should be designed. When you have retarded abominations like Vayne and Jinx running around who are late game hyper carries but also extremely safe lane bullies, that's problematic. Vlad has some pretty clear weaknesses to go along with his strengths. You have to play with them to shut him down,** but they can actually be played to unlike plenty of other champs.**

Oh i know that Vlad is really bad vs high cc burst Ganks.... One of the only champions..... that needs heavy cc AND burst. to kill. I have faced vlad many times as Sion. I even went to other lanes and Ganked.. But guess what? He just comes and Smashes all of his buttons for cleanup.

If you're good with Gangplank you will rek vlad. Cassiopeia bullies him and so does Swain . Pick these against him and you will do a little better then playing Sion against him.

Want to hear a funny story about Vlad? He wasn't even supposed to exist. whoever made him accidentally put him out.
