Tips Against Vladimir in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Ediwarden says “Your wall is very good into vlad and you also outrange.”
V222 says “Never let him get an empowered Q onto you for free since that's where a huge chunk of his damage comes from. In this matchup, just focus on farming well and getting consistent First Strike procs whenever you can. As long as you play cautiously, don't die early, and keep your CS up, you'll hit your item spikes way faster than he will. When you do look for all-ins, try to save your ult until after he uses W so he can't avoid your damage, and make sure to Ignite every all-in since it helps secure kills and reduces his ability to turn the fight around. ”
twin7zz says “Q max in this matchup is very important, (3 points, more if YOU have to.) Q his Q, dont let him get fully charged Q onto you even if you Q it the healing he gets is just not worth. you outscale if you go even.”
Amothertruckingunicorn says “Take D helm and go unsealed spellbook+ignite rather than barrier, you are not poking him out. ”

Soul0fghost says “You can normally out poke and win lane. Dont trade when he has empowered Q and space him.”

uramakyo says “W makes him completely untargetable on demand — he can dodge your poison, your R, and all your damage on a low cooldown. You simply can't kill him and he out-sustains you over time.”

L0ganJG says “Can be tough if you do not create your own opportunities. E start to conserve health. Q second, if you get a free Q auto trade it's good. W1 towards Vlad, and go for a decent trade. Figure out his timing, if he W's immediately on the start of your W, save your Q, use it immediately after he comes out of pool for a Q>auto>W2. You won't lose Frenzy as long as there are minions. If he doesn't W early, get as many autos as possible and W2 right as your Q stun is about to end. BotRK is insane in this matchup ”
V222 says “This is a very volatile matchup. Level one you don't have enough damage to start breaking him and if you E on him you will take a lot of caster aggro which will lead to you pushing the wave into him, making him heal up eventually and making the trade not worth. Only start E vs Vlad if he starts zoning you, pushes the wave or already wasted Q on the wave. It is very important to keep the wave on your side so you can keep jumping on him. This is why starting Q and letting him push while trimming the wave is usually safer and superior. The most common mistake people do versus vlad is spacing his Q bad by being too far away to punish once he goes to Q cs to heal. You want to imagine a circle around his Q range and instantly jump on him once he uses it. When you EQ into vlad it is very important to not be in range for him to pool in a way where he can damage you and heal off it. Trading your EQ for his pool is always worth it. One trick you can abuse vs vlad pool is that as long as you keep walking forward your E2 will outlast his W, meaning that you can jump on him after it expires. The only way vlad can outtrade you earlygame is if you tank his charged up E, it will slow you a lot and do a lot of damage so try to stand inside your minions and trade on his lasthits when he has his Q down. Otherwise only ignore this rule if you have your W shield. If you think vlad is going to pool your combo you can also EQ W. If he gets hit by your Q as he is in his W he will be extremely slowed so hitting your W stun is extremely easy. Once Vlad gets his second base and around lv7 in his Q points it is no longer worth to keep permanently trading with him as you won't break him unless you are extremely ahead and still have your ignite up and the wave is still on your side. Most Vlads will instantly ult you and the wave once they hit lv6 so watch out that you don't trade too much. If you jump on Vlad in a long lane when he has both summs up and he ults you with red Q up, don't try to statcheck and kite him and just ult out as he can easily outspace you and deny you from proccing your passive and just ult out instantly if you are anywhere near lethal. Your ult is much lower CD anyways so it is completely worth it. He will beat you for a while until you have your dusk and dawn, so plaiying the map vs Vlad who has no waveclear and no useful abilities in a skirmish is a very good way to win the game. Once you have your dusk and dawn laning against vladimir becomes manageable. As long as you use your W shield and don't jump into him fully charging his E you should win for a long time. One important interaction vs Vlad with dnd is that your E will go through his W once you start the animation https://app.tryascent.gg/clips/ArKt5aeAbXr Since he builds a lot of HP your W% + dnd double proc will do a lot of damage to him once he is low. ”
V222 says “Grasp Ignite D shield Second wind E start lvl1, get grasp proc, u out heal him with this setup, constantly harras him and don't let him heal up for free, and deny him cs, don't push the wave, and u can run him down, Bork/ Berserker/ Shieldbow/ Doms build is really strong into him, u can kill him on sidelane.”

Soul0fghost says “If you can space him and take trades with his q down, you can win lane. Don't try to gank him and just play to scale.”
