vlad's advantage is that he can rush ap more than any other champ (because it also gives him hp)..

use mr/lvl runes and flat armor yellows with basic defensive masteries, then buy mr boots. those resistances will be enough to last you until late game.. now you only have to buy your revolver before moving straight on to your rabadon's; reaching a strong amount of ap very early on.

flat ap quints should do, with a boots/pots start (movespeed is a must to dodge skillshots from champs like brand). reds can either be pen or att dmg, which might benefit his early game difficulty.
