You people are imbeciles. Put aside your ego and judge this build fairly. I've played this build several times and absolutely WRECKED with it. More attack speed at the cost of more deaths in counter-productive. Certainly sometimes a glass cannon works, but when you start rolling with a glass cannon Vayne, you will be focused with a quickness if the other team is remotely good. All of this should go without saying, of course, but I find your brains to be a bit slow and in need of reminding.

But you are surely welcome to remain farsighted and I will continue to mop the floor with your ignorance. And to the person who called this a "troll build"- you're especially ignorant. No build should be called that, unless perhaps it's something as irrational an AP character being built for AS or some such.

+1 from me.

Please, we need this marked as a troll build. None of the build is going to EVER be viable on Vayne.

In this build I try to combine AS with tankiness. The additional items I take are highly situational and I do feel that the Atmog's is essential to the build, afterwards I will usually build my zeal, then it all depends on their teamcomp, if I want to go for more damage I will usually go madred's + phantom dancer (however games usually don't last this long), and this is the most common case. The other items listed I only put as viable because in some situations they are better items than a phantom dancer and madred's. I feel like without the atma's she would not be tanky enough to be able to take focus from their team and still come out alive, all the while dealing huge damage, also it just synergizes so well with warmogs. Of course, if you don't want to build Vayne tanky then Atmog's is a huge waste of cash -.- If my tank items were banshees and GA instead, I would be nowhere near as tanky lategame and I would still be considered quite squishy and a good target to focus.

The only items that are truly AD in this build would be the last whisper and hexdrinker (items that are highly situational), as all the other items add AS to her (apart from the Atmog's of course), so I don't really know what you're on about with the whole, this build is more of an AD build than AS build as I feel like with the runes, masteries and items, the focus is much more on attack speed than attack damage.

I understand that pure AS Vayne (madred's, no atmog's etc) is the best in terms of pure DPS, however I find this build simply easier to play and use since if I wanted I could basically eat while I decide to autoattack whoever I want in the game without having to worry much about positioning.

Maybe it would be best if I removed the Last Whisper and Hexdrinker from this build as I know a lot of people follow build orders by the exact items as they are listed.

By the way, in the game you played, did you feel like you did better early game or late game? Sometimes I find myself feeding early on (0-4 etc) but then late game catch up as I build my Atmog's and my score will shoot up (let's say 9-5). And usually if I have a good early game and get fed early, then I will kind of have a lackluster midgame whilst I build my Atmog's and then once it is built I will dominate again.

Speaking as someone who has played against an atmog vayne, I have to say my team was wrecked by her. I the beginning I was able to whittle her down with my Panth combo, but after she got her atmog combo I wasn't able to deal any damage and was puzzled since everyone focused her and she still seemed to get out alive, I don't know if it was just skill or the build but that was a pretty bad day for me. Especially since the rest of her team wasn't even that good. I don't know if this was the exact same build since that game was awhile back, but I do remember she got the atmog combo. Also if you call me anoob, just forget it since I have played many games in my time of playing and I could easily combo out a vayne with Pantheon.

You're missing the point. It's just fine to build her with a few tanky items, but she needs to be built AS instead of AD. In case you didn't read, her Silver Bolts does percentage damage. You only take Wit's End and claim to rarely finish building Zeal into Phantom Dancer. You should have Sword of the Divine, Phantom Dancer, Madred's, and a few tanky items. If you build Vayne around Silver Bolts, she becomes a terror to behold. When you decided to throw Atma's into this build, you kinda screwed yourself over if you wanted ratings. She has one ability that scales off of AD (Condemn) and it only takes half of her AD. Therefore, Atma's is a huge waste of cash. Honestly, I also feel that Warmog's is as well. You're better off building something that actually offers resistances instead of health because you're still squishy. It may take a bit longer for them to rip you a new one, but one good stun on your and you're toast. I tried out this build myself, and I didn't do very well with it. I only went 6-7-20 because I had no damage potential.

This guide is geared towards an AS/tanky build. I find Atmog's works perfectly on Vayne as it gives +60 damage, a big help in crit chance and amazing armor and health bonuses.

I understand your desire to build Vayne a bit tankier, but AD Vayne is simply not as viable as an AS Vayne. Though Warmog's is a great health item, the bruiser combo of Atmog's is a waste of her potential. You should be maximizing on Silver Bolts and stacking Attack Speed. Perhaps take a Randuin's or a GA if you want some survivability. Atmog's is not worth it.

I thought this guide was a joke when I read Atmog's Vayne. I decided to troll a game with it to have a bit of fun and actually won and did very well! I tried out another game with this build and then same thing, I was tanky and still 3 shotted anyone on the enemy team with silver bolts!

+1

Definitely try it out before voting, think I definitely found my main Vayne build.

Considering that her health would be over 3000 with a Warmog's at level 18 it will actually be more like an additional 60 or more damage. In addition you will crit around 50% of your hits which means even MORE damage. When I crit, I can one hit the melee minions with just the core items in this build.

I was really hoping that people would actually think outside the box and be willing to try a build out before automatically coming to the conclusion that a certain build order sucked, and see that there was more than just one way to build a certain champion. Like the people who downvoted me, I myself thought this would never work, until I saw it played on a high ELO stream and then I later played against it and got absolutely destroyed by it. It is only when this hapenned that I tried it out and discovered just how good it is. I used to build the typical pure dps, pretty much glass cannon build however (dorans, berserksers greaves, madreds, phantom dancer, etc), after experimenting I find this build simply better and more effective, especially once the game goes into the lategame because it's actually possible to get caught in a bad position and survive and still pretty much kill the enemies as fast as with a pure dps build.

But I mean, if people want to downvote without even trying it out, then I guess that's cool and I can keep using this little secret formula for myself and the other few who are willing to steer a bit from the norm. It's funny, because I feel like this is a lot like the case of people once believing lanewick and lanedyr were useless, or how Alistar could never go AP, and then pros started using it and all of a sudden they became the FOTM. Well recently, I've seen high ELO players on pro streams using the atmogs build, and I do believe that people will see its viability soon enough.

No, Atmogs is more recommended for Tanky DPS and Vayne is too far from the tanky part, even with items, runes, masteries.
