Well his AoE damage makes it so these things happen fairly often with Vlad players if the enemy team ignores him. He does a lot of AoE damage that by the time you get around to trying to focus him you are all already too low to fight him.

That doesn't mean that shutting him down won't stop him though. He is a late game champ and with all late game champs, if you shut him down early correctly he won't have fun later in the game.

You dying once after a while probably gave him enough gold to put him back in the game in terms of gold.
