Are you kidding? Vlad is one of the best late game mages. Look at Tides' of blood. The CD on that ability is insane, and Vlad can easily maintain full stacks on it late game. And Vlad can get away building heavy amounts of AP thanks to the passive. Vladimir is very viable, but you still have to pick your lane carefully, since some guys will still shut him down (as it should be)
