Aaah I keep seeing people talk bad about Vladimir, or come up with dumb builds n such. I have 700+ games pre nerd after nerd. Since he came out. "HijackedCorpse" if anyone wants to challenge me.

My build is.. Starting ( Boots 3 hp pots. ) Then you go directly to Ionian boots. After that go for hextech and turn into will of ancients. Then go for rab cap. Void staff depending Then Rylai's.

You won't lose with this, also with the right runes and an exlier you AP hp and COOL down is more efficent than anything. This nerd was a set back but I can still carry any game with Vlad and barely ever get beat mid vs mid.

Only one counter to vlad in my opinion "FiddleSticks" for various reasons. But summoner skills matter as well don't get ghost or flash etc. I go for Summoner heal - Ignite. The lane stability, the baiting technique of summoner heal, The ignite for extra damage against them etc. Escape methods arent the most considered thing when you can kill 3 people coming at you.

Vladimir can be one of the best AP champs used by far.
