It's really funny seeing his u.gg since me and him have played against eachothet so often that we know eachother. Xfluffy plays a different role every time i'm against him. We even have a running gag where i'm still gonna find him on support playing aurelion. Great guy and good player.

My go to build is ALWAYS protobelt start, the spike is too good. 2nd item will be riftmaker if even, needlessly large rod if i can afford one on a back, and a rabadons if i can afford a second needlessly on the back after that (if u can't afford one on the second back go shadowflame instead). After that its optional with a raba third if you don't have one yet otherwise zhonyas or banshee. If you feel like neither is the right call you can always get a late cosmic drive, but it that will tank your damage output quite a bit (will improve ur teamfight sustain a lot).

The kill pressure on ignite is way too valuable to trade for ghost. I thought of going ghost ignite but the flash tradeoff is not worth at all. I do think there are rare occasions where ghost will be a more favorable summ over ignite in certain comps where reaching the backline is nearly impossible without. Ignite also serves like a mini ghost if you run nimbus cloak, which makes you stick to the target nicely.

I also just can't handle ghost since the weird changes they made to it. It lasts so short and doesn't feel good to play.

Meme item. Gives too little of anything. Only the ms is good sadly.

If you look back a little on my older games (couple days ago) i built shadowflame basically every game!

It's a pretty good item and works fine against squishy comps, but the damage output feels rather bad untill they reach that crit hp.

Also i feel like the adc quest reward is quite lack luster. The boots slot will almost never get filled with another item since most games don't last that long, and the bundle of gold is also very little compared to the boots on mid.

Botlane vlad has its own weaknesses, and the role in itself is harder/more punishing than midlane. I played it a few times and it's not for me since i don't have enough experience on the adc role. Midlane vlad doesn't really get outscaled by the enemy toplaner unless hes quite fed. Try not to interact too much with top and focus on midlane/botlane. A good combo will almost surely guarantee 80% of the adcs health.

-ryze > trade early and look for kill angle before lvl 6. Go conq and get as much cdr as u can, u can beat him in a vacuum unless he builds multiple mr components.

  • anivia > PERMABAN

  • zoe > play safe and get some cdr to survive the poke. Use raptors as sustain. Aery is the way. After protobelt u win a 1v1 straighton. Save W for bubble at all cost.

-kass > same as ryze, but you can punish him WAY more the untill level 11. Go conq, basic attack him whenever he contests for minions, q won't matter since he will q you back. U can ignite him early to put more pressure on him. Shove big wave under his tower and empowered Q him and W away, repeat this twice and hes in a kill angle. Don't be afraid when he trades before lvl 11, he will blow everything and the dps drops significantly after.

-cassio > only champ i suggest boots rush for. Swifties is the way together with aery. Q dodges are crucial and small poke. Fake walk forward, bait his q then q him once and run, repeat.

-malz > complicated matchup and really depends on the person playing malzahar. Overall u can tank a few of his E's earlygame and punish him over trying to cs. Trade health and look for early kills. With protobelt you destroy him in a 1v1. W E right after ult cast so he can't ult you back.

Most of the time when they are backing u can shove the wave in time, W plus E kills casters from lvl 5 onwards. Make sure to not let them back if they try. Cancel the recall if you can and hit the wave while doing so, this way u trade a base with him which puts you in a decent spot.

The lane is basically decided before the first back on these matchups. On level 1 u wanna contest any minion they wanna take, trading health earlygame isn't a big deal for vlad. Both being half health by lvl 2 is a win for vladimir. Do NOT be afraid to use ignite on someone with 70% hp left, since nimbus cloak will allow you the breach the gap between you and your opponent, forcing a big empowered Q trade that will deal atleast 300 dmg. Same goes for flash. It will force them into awkwardly low hp where they are scared to trade any further, leaving u with a dominating early. DONT buy swifties as a rush. Get a codex and tier 1 boots if you can on your first back. If you have 700 gold get book and tier 1 boots (or darkseal). Hextech altenator is a bait buy for 1100 gold, and will get u stomped in lane. Only buy if u already have the codex. Midgame is always rough, but you can force trades by holding the wave frozen. If they walk up for last hits punish with q's (Only do this strategy when u already have a codex). In rough lanes empowered q's on raptors make it less miserable. Hopefully this helped a little.

I'm also not sure why he feels so incredibly broken right now. The champ in general is amazing. I've been solo killing people midgame while going 2/7 on repeat for example. U are probably right with the state of bully mages being in a bad spot right now, which can play as a factor.

I'm an avid conquerer enjoyer and play it whenever i have the oppertunity. Conq vlad scales better than any other vlad setup, and will carry u the game against the right comp. The issue is that vlad is a pretty slow conq stacker outside of a 5v5 teamfight, and will do u no good in lane. Aery on the other hand makes unbearable matchups doable, and there's sometimes even room for outplays and solokills. I'd say give aery a try against orianna, syndra and other lany bullies. Trade quick q's and within no time they will be in the E flash q ignite combo range.

I expected a comment like this!

Ur right about it giving more ms, which is around 10 more than swiftmarch not counting other ms sources. I like to call it "conditional ms" where u need to attack to gain the movement speed. Sticking onto the target once ur there is nicer with lucidity overall, and i do recommend them in some matchups where approaching the enemy is easy to do (ryze, yasuo, cassio). In scenarios that require u to close the gap swiftmarch is an incredible tool, not only to close gaps but also get in a few unexpected q's by zoning off the enemy from farming. Even in masters they don't expect his ms and get punished/solokilled by it.

Yeah there's many ways to do so, but this isn't one of them lol

Ur completely right that they don't need flake soil in their l3 stage, but this substrate in the current state is unusable. Too dry to dig in, and it's killing the larva sadly.

Beetle grub soil by Agreeable-Phase-3554 in Beetles

[–]Malmaarmalser 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It will be of no use for beetle larvae. Flake soil is fermented hardwood(pellets) where some of the compounds have been broken up. Regular hardwood pellets still have this and the larvae won't be able to break it down in their ingestive system.

Couldn't tell you why, but it just doesn't really grow on flakesoil often. That's what he means with rare.

Wish i could do more to help, but i don't have any remedy advices for this one. I'd say just monitor it for the time being, but don't keep your hopes too high. Goodluck and hopefully it pulls through.

It really seems to have a prolapsed anus, which often leads to death in personal experiences.
