Vaynes getting more fans due to the meta shifts really starting to take hold in NA. Dive comps and poke comps are the big thing right now. Vayne-based team compisitions really destroy Poke comps due to her synergizing so well with Hard engage. Same for dive comps, her kit is designed to nab someone out of position and to get her to safety while continuing to dish out DPS. Someone who dives you is, out of position by definition and most teams recognize Vayne as a DPS monster hence her always being safe with a half-way inteliigent team. Pokes get dunked too early for them to hurt and dives get counter-engaged on. Not to mention her damage is high at all points in the game and if your dealing with a good Vayne plus a decent support your lane will get shutdown due to the immense amount of burst damage and Hard Engages made out of nowhere. Good Vaynes turn the "Carry" lane into the Kill lane.
