Here are some links to r/Vladimirmains. Take a look if you're curious about our opinions [Spoiler alert] We're pretty upset.

I know Vlad has been in a weird state of balance, but the damage nerf they're planning right now is a lot more impactful than people think.

Edit: We've been expecting a nerf for a long time now. TLDR for the Reddit links is that Riot was originally intending a base hp and hp scaling nerf for Vlad, but have changed their minds and moved to a damage nerf. We were willing to accept the hp nerfs. It would make Vlad harder to play, but the mains and OTPs would be fine. The damage nerf really hurts Vlad's ability to scale, and since he's a pure damage late game champ, it just kinda defeats the purpose of picking Vlad in the first place. It's not that we're opposed to a nerf (we knew it was coming), it's just that this particular nerf is going to do much more than just push Vlad out of the meta.

Maybe I'm overreacting, I'll have to see what it's like on live.
