What's wrong with Vlad?

Handy Sandy ··2 votes·615 views

There are a couple posts talking about why vlad needs nerfs but they don't give a reason. Can someone tell me why he's strong? I find him extremely easy to go against with any of my main champions. (Syndra, Cassiopeia, Azir, Karthus, etc.) He lacks range, burst, cc, and waveclear..

Whats wrong with Vlad? Well for starters, he sucked the neck of some chick with blue hair and white skin that shoots some sorta spit to stop people for hours. After he did that, he started getting sick and melted in a pool of his own liquid. In such pain, he went to the doctor. Doctor Shen. Not knowing how much of a quack Dr. Shen was, Vlad was inadvertently chopped up and fed to some werewolf on the other side of the land. Such a pity.

The issue is that most people dont know how to play against a Vlad and will let him poke and sustain for free. They wont abuse his super weak early game. Instead the will just complain when he pokes them without punishing him and cry he is OP.

I wouldnt say Vlad's waveclear is bad though. Its definitely not good though

You can "abuse" him all you want but at the end of the day you have mana and he doesn't. You'll run out of mana eventually and he can stay in lane literally forever being resourceless and healing a shit ton.

I just bought Vlad and I'm loving him. He's no Ahri or Anivia on waveclear, but his E is pretty good at knocking down a creepwave in one or two shots.

Riot destroyed his kit with new E skill.AOE damage and he became competitive champion.RIP Vlad.

I think the issue is he's tanky, does damage, heals for a pretty big amount, and has his pool to keep him alive until he can heal again/use it to get into the backline. You kinda have to blow ur stuns on him to make sure he doesn't kick your whole teams ass.
