Considering the "Zone or Get zoned" Meta bot-lane those days, with all those really aggressive supports forcing trades early on, she sure is in no great spot. She has a bad mid-game transition, which most adc's require to be efficient those days, and has bad response to harass unless put with one of her (quite numerous actually) synergising supps. Vayne's goal in lane will always be to avoid gettin forced into a direct trade and farm, farm, farm, but the actual metagame tends to favor champion who can abuse such behavior, like cait, lucian, jinx, who can build an advantage very quickly, have greater waveclear, and incredible zoning potential.

She's not what I'd call a bad pick though. She's hard to play in lane, but hard to play in mid-game TF as well. She requires high macro AND micro vision on the game, high mechanical level on sthealth gestion, hit and run, and condemn, and a high sense of initiative to be able to make those plays 1vX late game, those plays who make or break a Vayne player. She needs high peeling during midgame TF's, as she is extremely easy to all-in. But once mastered ... you usually dont regret it.
