I personally think you can beat him if you just force trades with him early using your Q. Often times vlad's poke is only really strong if you allow him to poke you without answering it by trading.

if he Q's you just Q to him, E, and keep attacking. Use a health pot if nessesary. Repeat every time he tries to Q until he is forced out of lane or killed.
