Swain can counter Vlad but really most casters can counter vlad. Leblanc kill vlad with just a few pokes early levels when vlad's can't heal for much and at level 6 she can instantly kill vlad with the silence stopping him from pooling. Morde can also counter vlad by soaking up the harrass with his shield. MF can outdamage vlad and counters his heals as well. Malzahar also counters vlad since vlad can't pool to avoid dot damage. Vlad is very strong late game when he has his items but his early game is actually incredibly weak.
