The Little Vlad that Couldn't

So Vlad is cool. No one can say Vlad is lame, because he's just cool. But the question here is that with his heavy advantages, what does he bring to the table if he's fed as hell? Not much. You see, whenever I play Vlad and do well, it always seems that my kills aren't really translating to my damage. Maybe it's just me, but a fed Vlad is a laughable matter to me. Now here's what is left to consider; Vlad is so strong as a counter-pick, could it be that his immense poke and counter could be meant to shut down the top laner? Maybe his purpose isn't to kill, but to nullify the hyper-carry top lane. Maybe to compensate for eliminating the top lane threat, his kit was created to only counter-play and nothing else.

What are your opinions on the matter? Do you think a fed Vlad is wasted kills, or do you think Vlad is good where he is?

The Problem I have is that Vlad is Really Item Dependent. Making it difficult to get ahead. I also tend to have the luck of building the exact opposite of what everyone else builds.

Looking at the Wiki, he seems to have fair defenses, close range, fair sustain, and Poor AP ratios. Personally i would Build him as an AP Bruiser.

Vladimir item 3145 item 3136 item 3157 item 3020

Focus Magic penetration as his AP ratio's are fairly low. The wiki still says to build AP as his passive benefits more from building AP than health.
