Alright, here goes.

He is a bit tricky to play as you play around with the resource that you usually don't want to run out - Health. Vlad brings a lot as a top laner to the table with inbuilt sustain and usually good trading power. However, u often need a CC comp to be super-effective as you need the time to set up your R at many enemies (increasing team's total damage) and dish out E's and Q's while pooling around if necessary.

You could pretty much say he is a hypercarry because if you manage to dish out R + stacked E + Q whenever possible, you might end up with many multikills. Just make it hard for the enemy to get focussed down.
