The only champs I've ever lost lane with vlad against are a Yasuo (before I know you had to deal with his shield first with a basic attack and wait for it toi end before poking him), Garen (high mobility with consistent damage, and only the good Garens, most are really easy to take) and quinn. Quinn top is specially annoying.

For ryze, as they say, just q harass and keep your distance in early. I don't even farm much as your e + q combo will help you get back farm in mid game, and it's a lot more important not loosing early against a ryze.
