Just had a vlad not build visage

Nowhere in the tutorial or the how to play guide or even on any of the champion select or item select screen does it say you have to buy spirit visage for vladimir

honestly after looking at all this data I have to question your teams composition. first tower fell to graves in mid with ahris help. It looks to me like your team would have lost anyway because no one was warding. You all pushed to the inhibitors got greedy and gave up 4 deaths inside their base. Then once the enemies had baron you lost in your own base giving up an ace and your nexus.

sure that extra magic resistance and such would have helped but I can think of lots of items that could have helped out your entire team.

vlad needed help from the start. He gives up 4 kills before 10 minutes because he's trying to figure out how to deal more damage to kill ahri back. He's in the middle of building will of ancients after those 4 deaths and then goes on to build zhonya. He's trying to win his lane but if you were harassing him by ridiculing his build or flaming him in general I don't blame him for losing focus and not building magic resist.

If you look at the stats it shows that as soon as you started building to go tank and left ezreal to roam ezreal got smashed. By 20 minutes in ezreal had pretty much lost his gold advantage to ahri. So it's not all vladimirs fault. He qued for mid and built pure glass cannon AP. He wasn't going tank Vladimir.

There are plenty of other variables that can lead to a teams downfall, but the most important ones are -

*communication *player experience *stress *opponents selection *vision *build path *runes and masteries *alertness *objective control *connection *interpretation

• prediction

if a player or your entire team experiences any of these in a negative sense it can lead to a loss. Vladimir isn't the only one at fault. Next time try communicating more efficiently in the champ selection or at the very least as soon as everyone loads up on platform.

honestly I expected better from someone in gold. Do you act like a bronze V all the time or just when you lose? Quit with the negative behavior and try again with a more positive mindset.

Why do you care so much?

Vladimir gets more hp based of the amount of ap he has, unless there team is heavily ap why bother, Vladimir is a mage not a ap brusier or tank, it won't benefit him in the long run cause he just traded off damage to have for a expensive item that wee bit more healing unless of the team was heavily ap.

I didnt buy Visage by mid-game and was already like 10/0 . .

So as a vlad main I'd say that I hardly buy visage anymore. I generally got WOTA, boots, Rylais, and then either rabbadons or liandry's

I mean, if you completely leave out the enemy team comp..... then this post is shit.
