Haha, I just referred a kid to MacLaren so he could learn how to play LoL. His life is going to be miserable as long as he plays this game.
I'm lovin on some Vlad though. Yeah, he is easy as far as normal games go, but ranked is always a different story. Ranked and normal have a lot of differences, although not as many as I once thought.

How to fix the stun problem: continue stacked Hextech Revolvers and HoG, but get a quicksilver sash somewhere in there. pop it if they manage to CC you while your bloodpool is in CD or something and you're home free...
(that was a sort of obvious solution to the "what about stuns?" problem...)

Where is this build coming from?
I keep seeing it in solo ranked day after day, and it's making me punch myself in the face because of how amazingly bad it is. Best I've seen one of these Vlads go was 5-5. 32 minutes in they only got around 150-250 AP usually.
I don't get the thinking behind it. Is it to ensure that the other team ignites you 100% of team fights?
It's like stacking spell vamp on Swain. 1 executioners and the whole build is useless as well as doing little to no damage and having little to no health.
1 ignite or 1 executioners calling and spell vamp vlad drops in no time. Coupled with a stun or silence and he's just going to feed.

"Thats a paddlin'"
I was sort of joking because no one seeming to think of quicksilver or banshee's veil to fix the CC problem. SO I posted a stupid comment about it lol

Vlad almost never gets banned. :/
He is my first ban, and I was banning first in the last 7 ranked games xD

rofl I made this thread and the next few weeks everyone started using double/triple revolver. I was obviously trolling. It's actually a terrible build in ranked yet everyone uses it, only good build for noob vlads.
I only use one revolver and rush deathcap
that's what all top vlads do, we all use basically the same build
Boots of Ionian
Hexxtech Revolver
Deathcap
Void Staff
Force of Nature
Hourglass/Rylais
Here are list of the Top ELO people that main vlad in ranked:
SYDTKO,Isnatur,Hai L9,Gravefury

Vlad is hard to fail at. NOT!
Just because he can heal does NOT mean he is indestructible. For one, notice his distinct lack of a nuke. You match him up against someone like Malzahar or Garen, and he's done for. Especially since they can both get up close and personal AND silence him easily. Against someone like Morde, on the other hand, very sustainable. However, my point is that Vlad is a champ that is very possible to fail at. Use your Q at the wrong time, and you have no heal ready for that burst nuke coming down on your head. Use your Tides at the wrong time, and you just put your only escape function on CD. Stacking Hextechs is viable, but not recommended. If possible, you should build into a Will ASAP :P

Karma. Leblanc. Twisted Fate. Kennen. Cassiopeia. One might say that I'm a sucker for difficult champs. One would be very correct in saying so.
