Talk:Vayne/@comment-4530717-20130719093105

I've been playing Vayne since her first nerfs. I've been playing her even when she got her somewhat unfair nerfs later on, and I don't intend to stop playing her if she gets nerfed again. Though I must admit that these eSport-sheep are rather irritating, she requires skill to use and she's a high risk, high reward champion. That being said, I think the only reason people are complaining so much is because of the "true damage stigma" that's plagued so many champions, and led to mass QQ simply because you can't counter it with resistances.

Except in this case where you can't build health to counter it, either. Vayne is an assassin-carry. She's supposed to be able to single out high priority targets, kill them and clean up teamfights, those are her mechanics and that is her role. She fulfils her role to the fullest despite the nerfs she's received, and will continue to do so. Her ability to melt tanks is exceptional, but you won't be focusing tanks or engaging them because their utility can utterly cripple her.

Eh, people just hate those mechanics because they perceive them as "unfair". They aren't unfair, they're part of the game and there are other assassin-carries who have the same role. Let's use Twitch as an example, his lategame is more powerful Vayne's, in the respect of his ability to wreck teamfights with his ultimate accompanied by his element of surprise which requires a cunning mind at higher levels of play. Like Twitch, she requires someone who knows how to use her in order to succeed.

Anyway, those are my thoughts, maybe someone elses, but you have to actually analyse Vayne before casting judgement based on watching some eSport games with her.
