AikoPanda says “he will outscale you, and he is stronger early game, wait til lvl 3 so you can start poking him down, get your jungler to come since he cant disengage, if he uses W look for all in.”
Misuleague says “Take ignite. Let him push to have room to run him down, learn the timing to block is E with windwall and the timing when he comes out of his pool so you can Q3 nado him.”

TimeForTrolls says “Pretty hard matchup, he outscales you hard and is quite difficult to kill with pool. try to deny him farm and bait out pool. When pool is down he is burstable early on. Later you can't really get close without getting completely blown up.”

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 ”

Sekirooo says “♡ Dracula insane ap and don't have any antiheal MR for him is disgusting but he won't be strong early so try to always make short trades with him getting hexdrinker is good or mercs and some MR early will help if you can try to waste his W you can win against him mostly not always if he have his Q almost powered he will just shrug the damage off best to always fight when his W is down and you can also do a combo on him when he about to power Q and you now stacked your passive is E + R will prevent his healing ”

TheMild1 says “Won't do enough damage to kill you and can't stop you from doing what you want. Just try to avoid taking his empowered Q. ”

Dragonlord1022 says “Fleet Footwork Bone Plating D Shield → Refillable → Mercs/Swifties/Tri Force → Tri Force/Streaks If you're playing vs ignite Vlad or enemy has a very aggressive jg, you need to stay as healthy as possible early. Vlad with ignite can straight up tower dive you level 3; if that's coming, make sure you have Bone Plating up or a mega timer. You can kill Vladimir by baiting out his pool, then hitting him with Mega W. Typically this looks like, after level 6, with mega, jump on his head and just don't use any abilities right away to bait pool. In an even lane, once Vladimir has his first item, he will most likely win the 1v1. ”

Saneryus says “In low elo, he isn't much of a threat since people don't know how to pilot him as well. Once you get into high elo, a good vlad will perma tower dive you and force you to base or ult. This is just a statcheck match up where you'll mostly lose pre-6 unless he somehow lets you walk up in melee range at max passive stacks. Once 6, you will only engage short trades against him when he uses his Q on minion, OR he doesn't have empowered Q. You'll win the short trades with PTA and you just rinse and repeat. Once level 11, it will still be hard. Once level 16, you will beat him automatically you're the first to engage on him (preferrable from FoG). If he engages on you first, you'll have to time your ult to negate his E and Q damage (his ult does less damage). The 1 tech that will guarentee let you beat vladimir in a 1v1 late game is going to be Kaenic Rookern. Vladimir falls in the category of a burst mage as he doesn't have consistent damage like you with autos. If you can prevent him from bursting you down level 16+, you will win the 1v1s. Teamfighting is a different story though since you can't all build kaenic rookern. If you need, you can build an early negatron cloak to survive the early laning phase if needed. Standard PTA DShield TP/Exhaust or TP/Flash I havn't tried gunblade in this match up to see if it's enough for vlad's poke. For now, standard build. I'll see if gunblade is good for his poke in lane”
PokeRoyal2007 says “Quite even, but the match-up favors you. His early is pretty bad, however don´t be overconfident because he has a lot of lifesteal. Anyways you should be fine against him.”

TENSION019 says “Grasp, Doran Shield, Ghost and Ignite. Vladimir is basically a big minion for us in this matchup. Grab Swifties and just run him down without mercy.”

zwartebliksem says “Flash + Ignite Another scaling champion and wannabe toplaner. Vladimir really wants to scale, where he starts getting strong around level 13. You can punish him before this, where most toplaners couldn't. When you go in on Vladimir, he will typically use his W to disengage. But there is a trick with Kled that most Vladimir players don't know. When you land your Q, it will remain stuck onto the Vladimir, even if he goes into his pool. That means that the damage, pullback and the slow will all go though as well. Because of this, trading is very easy.”
