I dont think its unusual to be inconsistent with Vayne or any ad carry for that matter. Your score is always going to depend on whether you get focused early in teamfights (which should be the case) or not (which happens when playing noobs). As for playing Vayne, the optimal lane would of course be together with a support such as Soraka or Sona. Since the nerf her early game damage isn't as high as it was anymore, so I'd suggest focusing on lasthits rather than harassing enemies with your Tumble damage (which a lot of Vaynes seem to like doing). As for your items, I'm not a huge fan of getting multiple Doran's items, but it works. I'd personally suggest getting a Vampiric Scepter instead of an extra Doran's Blade (for the lifesteal which will allow you to stay in lane much longer) or farming until you have enough gold for Sheen, which is a great item to get early. Trinity Force, the Bloodthirster, Infinity Edge, Phantom Dancer, the Black Cleaver and Last Whisper are all great items to get on her. As for defensive items, I wouldn't buy a lot of those, I think :| Grab a Quicksilver Sash so you can use the active in combination with either Flash or your invisibility to get out of trouble when being focused, but apart from that I'd recommend offensive items, you are the ad carry after all ;)
