How do i fight a Vayne seriously. Need advice.

I have been seeing a lot of vaynes recently and i believe it's because tankier(not neccesarily tanks} champs are becoming more popular so of course her %hp true damage and mobility will shine. the hp means their health stacking matters little and so does their resistances but she better then Kog beause she actually has mobility

Fine ok i'm not QQing

All i'm asking is for advice from people who know how to effectively play against her in and and when the laning faze is over regardless of who you play you can call counters all day but what if she was last pick(or you're in blind)

point and click CC doesn't really count because point click CC kills nearly everyone in the game it's way to broad and i know pink ward will reveal her but not minimize damage or her ability to run away from the pink and QSS has to high a CD to use on every silver bolt(might just help you against a condemn)

I'm a support main and I use Malphite and run item 3110 item 3082 . Get in her face and E and watch her atkspd crawl.

Nasus also works as well. But then again, how many are brave enough to use him as a support?

My win rate against Vayne is pretty high on Malphite and I can take him top / JG / support. Then again, I'm a bronzie, what do I know.

1 Dont duel vayne unless you can instantly blow her up. 2 dont over commit to fights unless you can kill vayne fast. 3 punish vayne for playing aggressive early. 4 in trades, dont let her stack three autos. If she can stack three autos and you are not in a position to kill her, you have over commited. 5 if you have a big cc ult or a lot of single target damage, hold onto it until you can use it to kill vayne.

Her biggest counter is Caitlyn . AA her every time she goes in to cs. Try and save your crits from your passive for her. Graves, Lucian, and MF used to dominate and her too, but they've been nerfed (which is part of the problem) Caitlyn is still your best best since she's the best at sieging towers since you want to try and end games early before Vayne starts rolling.

Alternatively, if you're supp, you can take a poke or zoning supp (i.e. Zyra, Annie or even Sona if you're good at her) or someone that has hard engage (thresh, naut, blitz). You want to try and put her as far behind as possible.

As far as teamfights, you ideally want to have a tank or two with hard CC and item 3110 item 3143 . Nasus is also insanely helpful. Focus her and profit.

The best way way: AD Irelia 1 shotting her with item 3074 item 3031 item 3078 item 3087 item 3742 item 3006 while she's stunned.

Outside of counters, remember that Vayne is bad at holding off sieges and at sieging enemy turrets. So if you are ahead there is little she can do to stop you from closing out the game, and if she is ahead she is bad at stopping the other team from turteling.

Ok so as a vayne player, my biggest pet peeve is just hard cc in general.

In the laning phase, harass vayne early, she cant do very much in return. Watch for her bork power spike, sh can 1v1 anyone at that point. After laning, when teamfights start to happen, watch for her positioning. She has a lower auto attack range than most carries and sh'ell most likely be right behind the front line in the middle of the team. Try to jump on her, have your jungler/top laner/mid/supp to cc her and try to kill her quickly. If that fails, try your best to catch up to her if she runs. If she turns to fight you, you should be able to just aa/use skills to wipe her clean off the rift. She's a very squishy glass canon which makes her biggest counter poor positioning and hard cc. Do NOT try to engage 1v1 on a vayne under any circumstances- she's a natural duelist and even a decent vayne can find a way to kill you so be weary of that.

im not a pro, but this is what i do when vs vayne, my two main adc is graves and quinn. depending on my support,

*i prefer quin vs her do to me been able to blind her and make her miss like 2 autos which is a big deal for vayne.

*but my biggest strategy is to push the lane after lvl 2 slowly. she is really bad at pushing so use this to my advantage, if she wants to fight me she has to do it vs my minions, and we all know how much they can hurt.

another good adc can be sivir to spell shield her stun. during team fights i always have a pink in my inventory only for fights, i dont place it down for nothing else, i also upgrade my red trinket.

p.s a silence can really shut her down

As a Vayne main....the main weakness is cc......once you cc hard vayne she is useless...she can q away but this is why you need to work together with your supp...and she does not have much health so she is very squishy...and always try to use long range adcs like tristana, jinx, caitlin...the main in lane thing is to poke little by ittle and it wlll make a difference.... hopefully that would help....but never understimate a vayne...because she is strong af if used smart
