So I have been practicing vayne for a while. Haven't played her in a long time and my teams are asking me to get jak sho as your 5th item.

At first I didn't believe them, but looking at some top Vayne players, pretty much every high level Vayne player has Jak'sho in their build.

What makes this item so appealing on her, when she does not build any other resist item? I think getting a different tank item would be more beneficial, like omen, but why jak sho?

I play nothing but Vayne lmao.
I have both fulltime work and college so I legit don't have enough time to "spend more time to get better." I came back after a 4 year break.

I think I have good mechanics for 1v1s and 2v2s. Teamfights are eh because I need better positioning and patience.

I seem to win early game but lose midgame.
Or if I lose early I seem to also throw small leads my team might get.

I usually build Kraken>Guinsoo>Bork
Or Kraken>Essence>IE>crit stuff
I saw a build on here for Dusk&Dawn + Guinsoo. Maybe it'll make me live longer and I can make more of a difference in fights?

I don't seem to understand when to follow up/poke and when to be farming. I'm just locked into last hitting and getting whats guaranteed instead of trying to fight and dying.

Any tips? I'm just Silver😂

Thought this would be a funny challenge.

Anyways, I'll go first.

Lulu: So I got on the Rift with Vayne today, and while we walked to Bot Lane she said something to me for the first time... EVER!

Pix: Intrigued Pix noise

Lulu: Yeah, she asked "Lulu of the Rift, what is your wisdom?", which I thought was so thoughtful because I've been around for quite a few centuries, so I told her "I recommend skipping!"... but she wouldn't skip with me. That's 700 years of wisdom Pix, can you believe it?

Pix: Shocked Pix noises

Lulu: But I couldn't just be mopey so I skipped along while she did some ninja cartwheel move thing along the way. And guess what?

Pix: Inquisitive Pix noise

Lulu: I saw a tulip blossoming from the back of the Tier 1 turret!

Pix: Gasping Pix noise

Lulu: So I told her "Never look a tulip in the eye."

Pix: Affirmative Pix noise

Lulu: And you know what she did?

Pix: Head scratch

Lulu: She stared at the tulip with both of her eyes.

Pix: Irate Pix noises

Lulu: I know! She just "hmph'ed" and kept looking at it!

Pix: Moping Pix noise

Lulu: So I tried to lighten the mood by saying "We could go for a twirl!" but you know what she said?

Pix: Inquisitive Pix noise

Lulu: Ahem Giving her best Vayne impression "I have no time for nonsense."

Pix: More irate Pix noises

Lulu: And that hurt my feelings!

Pix: Mmhmm Pix noise

Lulu: So I transmogulated her!

Pix: Pix gasps

Lulu: I thought I taught that youngster a lesson. But you won't believe what happened next, Pix!

Pix: Sighing Pix noise

Lulu: Yeah. While I was warding a bush, you know the one with the mustache and glasses so those enemy meanies won't recognize it, right?

Pix: Nods

Lulu: Well Vayne ninja cartwheeled aaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll the way under the meanies' turret and died.

Pix: Facepalm

Lulu: That's right, Pix... Sigh Grumpy dewdrop!... Whoa... dizzy...

It's really inhibitive to the betterment of the community. How will we bring out the best in the community and in each member, and frankly the development of the champ's META if respect is, in practice treated as optional.

I'm a noob Vayne bot enjoyer but cant help but tilt at the glue eating supps and perma mage bot.

I see people have success with her Top and just want to try and understand some of why its so strong and how to play it.

Thanks

Just a heads up that prestige firecracker is available in the mythic shop. Missed it a few times myself so wanted to post here incase anyone else had been waiting on it like me

Anybody else super excited to play OG vayne? the damage on her Q, oh the memories.

Hello Vayne mains, I’m here to kindly ask you to explain to me builds like crit vayne, essence reaver vayne, and lethality vayne, and how they work. I usually go for the as/on-hit items and augments but I have been seeing other players doing better with different setups. In my mind, Vayne’s damage comes from her w, which can only be improved by increasing the rate of proc’ing it, in other words: with attack speed. I don’t believe it crits without Jeweled Gauntlet. So what am I missing?

It is insane how 1v9 the build is, you just get to a point where you simply have 3K+ hp, tons of resistances and the dusk and dawn W skip is melting through the filth.

I am achieving elo bliss.

I was planning to buy one but I really can't choose.

So far I'm liking Project, Demoncursed and Sentinel, plus Soulstealer but it's off rotation.

Prestige Firecracker is in rotation but I don't like it too much.

Which skin do you guys prefer and why?

EDIT: thanks for all the comments, seems like Demoncursed is the popular choice

Hello there. I just returned to playing Vayne adc from a jungling detour, so I didn't have much experience using doran's bow so far. I kept buying blade in my first couple of games, because I know that laning phase sucks, and I will either get beaten up by 2 ranged champions when going for last hits, or get all-ined by a melee support and just die even easier. I switched to bow in my last few games and I'm loving it so far, it gives me enough pushing potential in the early game to not end up under turret, and the all-ins are great too. I even felt bold enough to take it against a Jhin/Zyra matchup and was still doing well. But when I look at high elo builds, there is a mix of bow and blade start, with bow being slightly more popular.

So my question is, which are those matchups when you would rather take blade over bow? Melee enemy supp? Double ranged? Mage botlanes? Or depends whether you go lethal tempo or pta?

I’m a bad player here who wants to learn Vayne top because it’s fun (and meta ofc). where do I learn it? like I really don’t know when I should build what or what the actual gameplan is. anyone know?

I’ve been seeing more and more people saying Vayne jungle is a good secret pick. Dawg this shit is ass as hell wtf, straight up psyop.

But seriously what am I missing about Vayne jungle or does it just suck and people are lying?

Like if u already have like botrk rage terminus could dusk and dawn outdmg items like kraken vs certain comps or offer similair dmg while offering some hp/sustain or is it always lower than going for another onhit item?

In my opinion if they made vaynes w deal magic dmg she could be buffed for bot cuz she wouldnt be as opressive top cuz u can actually itemize against her in top now

Shout out to the Neeko for the big Sho'Ma energy.

Funny how in game it all feels so fast but in the replay it feels so slow.

I would consider this a 1v5, altough the fact that I'm on Elder Buff lowers the greatness of the play

Im still very very proud of myself:)

(Also yes, this is Vayne mid)
