agree with asperon thorn

vlad is a mage, which can be countered by magic resist items. i honestly haven't run into a match where the other team build center around just to counter vladimir. respect toward saint but he's not being very reasoning. vlad is a mage, which use magic and can be counter by magic resist, although he used health as a mana pool, 3/4 of his skill does carry a heavy cost. yes he can buy items to counter it, like any other champion can buy items to counter him. he doesn't have heavy aoe, like a snare and stun which i felt is a disadvantage for him, but then again he does have a curse ult and a "out of gank free card" that also so i guess it even out, although his pool do require him to be in their face. just learn to counter him, he's very easy to counter like any mages in LoL and please learn to buy defensive items instead of rushing to finish a preset builds and not altering your build to counter the other team. there have been so many matches where no one would buy magic resist items only to be eaten alive by vlad then would cry out OP, or in most cases would call him a "fake champion".
