Hello my name is Saskio and I have coached a ton of Vayne top laners throughout the last 3 years. I have compiled a list of common problems I have noticed across all elos from Iron - Master. The list is in no order and covers things from a micro and macro stand point throughout the early game of things I notice people dont do.
LIST
- Resetting minion aggression in early laning phase with brushes while poking
- Positioning to ward river after the 12th minion
- 3/4 Wave crash properly into suicide dive/cheater
- Attempting to shave wave and threatening freeze on ALL enemy bounce backs (Against melee champions)
- Shaving the wave enough after solo killing and basing while wave is pushing towards Vayne
- Spacing and Tethering game (Fancy word for kiting) Basically knowing when your opponents will run away after chasing you and losing a ton of free damage that you could have gotten (BIG PROBLEM)
- Using Vayne invisibility timer to surprise opponents to escape weird ganks/outplay
- Using condemn at the wrong time
One of the biggest problems with Vayne top players is their ability to escape the early laning phase going even or ideally ahead. It's hard to maneuver the mid game when you fall behind and forced to farm and react to everything happening in the game. I hope this list can shed some light on common Vayne top problems and help you focus on specific areas in your games <3

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?
r/vaynemains • u/WonderfulHourISC • 5d ago
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...

1 Please Treat Others How You Wish to be Treated.
This is a community for people who like Vayne. This means there will be people of all different skill levels and backgrounds. Their feats may seem simple or trivial to you, but it's a big deal to them, and we want our community to feel they can share clips and accomplishments they are proud of without a sea of negativity following. Please just skip the post if you have nothing nice to say.
Infractions will result in removal, and repeats will result in a ban.
I've been reading a whole lot of posts where folks get disrespect, belittled, or even flamed for having opinions different than others and it makes the sub feel like it's fallen to darkness.
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.
Whether a member is challenger or iron, everyone deserves a voice here.
We can do better, so let's do better.

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?
r/vaynemains • u/Anilahation • 9d ago
r/vaynemains • u/M4ci • 9d ago
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?
r/vaynemains • u/SombreroMan • 14d ago
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?
r/vaynemains • u/nrwPlayer • 15d ago
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?
r/vaynemains • u/Ok-Bicycle-1059 • 15d ago
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.
