Sorc boots work well on mid vlad for the main reason that the things you need are Burst and CC mid. Sorcs helps with the first part. You really aren't going to make use of the CDR to "sustain" harder since ppl just burst you down.

Ionian's is really good for top if you need more sustain (and lets face it, top is a sustain battle half the time). Either way there are benefits and disadvantages. If you have a void staff, Ionians are better. But early game? Sorcs gives more damage.
