i personally don't like this build or guide. first with the guide, not very detailed in strategy such as, laning phase, first blood, lvl 6, ganking. If you improved on them might give people a better chance to understand how to play him instead of just giving items and letting them run off. Another thing is summoner abilities, new people to vlad might not recognize what is best. i prefer to use ghost and ignite as this combo at lvl 6 allows you to get first blood ( if not already taken) trans->hemo->ignite->Trans->sangine to slow->trans-> dead. very affective combo if you do not already use it. a post of stuff like this will help people recognize the skilling order carried out to kill people. and secondly, with the build. it is not my cup of tea, i like the early ap boost from items to get some oomf from my abilities, while gaining some hp. Problem i see with this is you migth be tankish at the beginning but have no real dps, unless aided by team mates. Late game i feel vlads effectiveness is reduced so the ap in late game wont aid you as much. however i might be influenced to believe this is more of a team buidl more than a solo or 2v1. i am up for a discussion on these matters if you would like to counter my arguments.

lol simple but annoing lol nice build dude :D

i love being a tanky vlad, but you went overkill on the health, especially since replacing a single rylais for a guardian angel or something would add soo much more dmg reduction that all that health might actually be useful, except you wont do any dmg... i dunno im not a huge fan of this build atm

I love people that are trying to hate on this build. :P Its funny. It gives you so much survivability and more than enough AP on him.

@ TheLoneWolf

You must be trolling because getting Sunfire on vlad. lol

@ shrvn

Anyone can do what you do in games with bots JUST LIKE YOU MUST BE DOING! In real games that would be impossible. Thank you but try again. O.o

500 AP in 15 min with 4k gold ? I'm waiting for your stuff guy. The fastest and cheapest way to get Ap is Mejai (20) + Zhonya, and that's only 375 (not including runes or masteries). One also have to consider you can't reach 20 stack in 15 min in a real game ...

we will neeed 18000 gold for this build which is alot and u get it in late game .i can make 500 ap with 4000 gold in early game in the first 15 min of the game

3 Rylai's? XD oh wow only keep 1 and trade the others for more AP or HP throw a sunfire cape in there or 2 but if this is the highest ranked Vlad build then ppl need to wake up and figure out how to build him -1

I bought Vlad just yesterday, played 3 games so far, lost the ones with the AP build, and OWNED with this build :-) though I used it b4 looking at this page but nevertheless u posted it so u deserve the praise =) Keep it up!

I felt like commenting as I personally enjoy vlad. I will start with my recommendation in slight tweaking of the build first. I don't know your order but I recommend Rylai's first then onto warmog's. Second, I personally don't care for warmog's, but it is amazing if you have the money to burn so haters gotta hate. My question is with the Rylai's stack interesting choice but possibly throw in a spirit visage to get more from your heals. All around interesting build +1 for actually taking time to write a guide that is detailed, but I myself personally would not do it.

P.S if you haven't written a guide, unless it is really bad you have no reason to flame as they took time and effort to help.

I have tried this build and tbh I find it very nice good job.

Thanks. My best game with this build i had about 21 kills and 4 deaths. My itemization for him differs now from what i have in this build, but as i stated before this build was more of a guideline. I'm glad it helped you. I think i remember playing a game with you before as Jax. You should post up your build, you were definitely one of the better Jax players out there.

I love how you don't give any constructive criticism. Please refrain from posting, if you can't read.
