Ok so I started playing vayne not too long ago. Hoping to use her to climb in the next seasona nd all. In all honestly i suck at her. Like at all parts of playing the game with her, not just farming or combat.
So i had a question i thought id bring to you all, as a community.
Is there a certain mindset you get into when playing certain champions? Like playing when playing different ad carries. And if so what are they? Are you thinking "Farm farm farm farm" Or are you thinking something more along the line of " I need to be here so i can kill them"or like in team fights and such thinking "I can outdamage him him and him".
Maaybe this is a silly question maybe its not. Maybe no one will even know what i'm talking about, and maybe no one will respond. But i would love to hear what you all have to say, especially on vayne in particular.
If you don't know what i'm trying to say well just keep on with your day

You can start analyzing the enemy team comp in the loading screen and think of abilities that are gonna **** you up. For example malphite ult, so try to stay out of range or wait till he used in it on a different target in a teamfight. You also have to watch out for assassins, since they will be all over you.
As for different mindsets for different ADCs, some are lane bullies and some scale really hard, keep that in mind when looking for fights early on. On Lucian and Draven you wanna be more aggressive than with Vayne or Twitch. This depends heavily on your support though. Looking at your own and the enemy supp is also very important. Has the enemy supp hard cc? Can your supp protect you in some ways? For example you can play more forward with a Thresh who can lantern you out.
Just start thinking about all the champions in the loading screen and it will become second nature.
As for Vayne specifics, go into practice tool and see what you can do with your E and Flash. It's important to know what your champion can and cannot do. Good Luck
In simple black and white terms, I think it's easiest to determine whether your ADC is a lane bully or needs a certain item/s before they can fight. I would say Vayne falls into that second category. So do Kog'Maw and Twitch for example. Other ADCs want to get kills ASAP and are actually able to - Lucian, MF, Draven etc Of course, a good support can make the ADC a lot more flexible and effective.
If you could could you refer someone on here who does play adc to this post so that I can get some more in depth information from them.
Also as a side note i want to say I love your guides. I used your Mf guide for the longest time. It actually got me to the M7 point on Mf. I don't play supp all that much, and when I do I usually play supps that you don't post guides for. But I have used your Soraka guide a few times and maybe your nami one once or twice. But yeah jsut wanted to use this opportunity to give a bug thank you.
