Vladimir can give Malphite a really hard time. Vladimir can harass Malphite with his Q and his E, has the sustain to counter Malphite's harass. Malphite would have to spam Q all day during early game to be able to beat Vlad, but this would cost him a lot of mana and Vladimir can counter that late with sustain and magic resistance. Also, if timed correctly, Vladimir can dodge Malphite's ult with his sanguine pool, though this is very hard to predict. The only way Vlad can lose that is with ganks.
