Vlad doesn't counter a smart Malphite. A smart Malphite maxes Q first (about the same range as Vlad Q), and takes Mercury Threads, Chalice of Harmony (now you can spam your skills with as much fear to go oom as Vladimir has) and Abyssal Scepter. Vladimir deals no damage, you can harras forever, and you got damage. After that, you just take something like Sunfire Cape, Frozen Heart, Warmog's Armor, whatever you need.
