To be frank he needs a BUFF, there i said it, let the trolls come

His early game is hilariously bad, i main with him, and vs almsot every other vlad that doesnt stack mr early game, i win handily. It is hard as hell to keep up with almost any ranged attacker with any sense, whenever i come across him while im using a different toon, he either has gone b twice by lvl 5, has hugged his tower tightly the entire time, or is dead

Once he hits his mid lvls and gets into his stride hes certainly a force to be reckoned with, butif you play against him correctly you should have several levels and about 50 minion kills on him by then

Overall while his lategame (particularly the aoe department) is good, he needs alot of love for his early game, having 1 spell with shorter range (ex. annies dspells are both range 625, which when she has her stun will stun you and gtfo before you get your spell off, kass is 700 i think, trans is 600) than almost every other single arget nuke in the game, thats does low damage on an 12-10-8 second cd until lvl 7 where it goes from being hilarious to jsut ok, is just pathetic, using tides against champs is suicide (autoattacking them pust a bigger hp lead on them than that spell) and if you are pooling and are not being ganked or going for a kill, you should find a new champ (and no i dont want to hear about the heal on trans, its a 2-4-6 hp/sec heal if used every cooldown, and if youre doing THAT you have no defenses left to you, see above). Hes so ludicrously easy to shut down and exp starve it sfunny, in fact the only thing he CAN do early game is escape ganks, and you dont even need to gank him, jushit him whenever he comes close and hell go away
