League Of Legends > Build > Vladimir
Welcome to our elo booster Vladimir build, complete with runes, masteries, skill order and the item build. Since the vladimir rework has changed his kit slightly, building high HP item is a bit more effective in terms of quality of life. This vladimir item build will focus around items that grant utility and kill potential. since vladimir lacks almost any source of CC, rylai’s is almost a must build item on him. alright lets have a look at what has changed spell wise and damage.

- [NEW] After casting Q twice, Vladimir gains Crimson Rush the next time it becomes available to cast.

Vladimir Item Build
In this Vladimir Build the Rylai’s is the essential item and should be built fairly early in the, usually first or second item. It’s super important that you’re also picking up some cooldown reduction along the way when building it. Picking up a fiendish codex or CDR boots in between building rylai’s a good buy in this vladimir item build. Since you’ll be maxing your Q first you’ll be able to repeatedly spam your abilities whilst being able to soak and tank damage from exchanging because you’ll be healing from Q. Building Haunting Guise will later build into Liandry’s Torment which synergies with your Crystal Specter. This vladimir build has a strong slow combo with the burn twice as effective (4% of the target’s current health per second for 3 seconds.). Top lane you’ll be facing off against alot of tanky champions that have raid boss amounts of health and this item combo will allow you to come out on top in your exchanges and potentially in winning your lane.
–
Look out for Swain, if he also builds this same item combo you’re going to have a super hard time in lane. However, if you pick up a Spirit Visage you can also retaliate against him and other tanky mage champions you end up going against. Picking up a void staff as a third or forth item in this vladimir build is excellent for late game damage. If you have the Zhonya’s Hourglass you’ll also be able to go all in and have alot of up-time to deal consistent dps to the enemy team’s backline. Keep in mind, in this vladimir build your kiting potential is quite amazing. Some of my personal challenger tier friends run the luden’s echo as a final item to enchance his kiting abilities. If the enemy team isn’t aware of how to handle this vladimir build in a late game team fight, they will most likely get aced underestimating his healing potential, cooldowns and movement speed.
Runes
Now for vladimir Runes, there are fairly simple rune page. The early defensive stat help, but the Magic Pen mark runes are a must. The best way to top of any AP Carry rune page, is by giving them that extra flat 15 AP.
Masteries
Vladimir Masteries utilize the deathfire torch keystone, since you will periodically spam your (E). making the most of your healing by putting 5 points into runic armor is a must.
Skill Order
Early on in any vladimir build player will need skill points in there (Q). this needed to sustain in lane and survive and complete your item without falling behind. after that your (E) is your next best damage source.
Now that you learned the Vladimir item build, along with his runes masteries and skill order. The only thing left in this vladimir build is his Counters. View our champion Counters for more in depth strategy’s.
