How to beat Vayne

Common role: ADC

A hyper-carry marksman who shreds tanks with true damage and rolls to reposition.

What makes Vayne dangerous

Vayne's Silver Bolts deal percent-max-health true damage every third hit, melting tanks and squishies alike. Her Q roll repositions and can reset her bolts, her E stuns you against walls, and her ultimate grants stealth and bonus damage. She's weak early but a monstrous late-game duelist.

How to play against Vayne

• 1Punish her early — Vayne is one of the weakest lane ADCs before items. All-in her botlane in the first 10 minutes with an aggressive support.
• 2Keep her away from walls — her E (Condemn) stuns only if it knocks you into terrain. Fight in open areas to avoid the stun.
• 3Blow up her positioning: she's melee-range on her carry pattern and very squishy. Hard CC or an assassin catches her before her ult stealth resets.
• 4Don't try to out-tank her — her true damage ignores armor. Kill her fast or peel her out of the fight instead.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Very weak early game and short attack range.
• ✓Squishy with only her roll for defense.
• ✓E only stuns near walls — open ground denies it.
• ✓Falls apart if caught before she can kite.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Vayne's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Caçadora Noturna

  Vayne caça implacavelmente os malfeitores, ganhando Velocidade de Movimento ao se deslocar em direção a Campeões inimigos próximos.

• Q
  Rolamento

  Vayne dá uma cambalhota, equilibrando-se para efetuar seu próximo disparo. Seu próximo ataque causará dano adicional.

  Strong: a roll that repositions and can reset her bolts. Weak: short range and she's melee-range on her pattern — CC her mid-roll.

• W
  Dardos de Prata

  Vayne aprimora suas flechas com um metal raro, tóxico a qualquer coisa maligna. A cada terceiro ataque consecutivo ou habilidade contra o mesmo alvo causa um percentual da Vida máxima do alvo como Dano Verdadeiro adicional.

  Strong: Silver Bolts deal % max-health true damage, melting tanks. Weak: needs three hits to proc — burst her before she stacks it.

• E
  Condenar

  Vayne puxa uma pesada besta de suas costas e dispara um gigantesco projétil em seu alvo, arremessando-o para trás e causando dano. Caso colida com terreno, ele fica empalado, o que lhe causa dano adicional e atordoamento.

  Strong: stuns you if it knocks you into a wall. Weak: only stuns near terrain — fight in open areas to deny it.

• R
  Hora Final

  Preparando-se para um confronto épico, Vayne recebe Dano de Ataque aumentado, invisibilidade durante o Rolamento, Tempo de Recarga do Rolamento reduzido e mais Velocidade de Movimento adicional de Caçadora Noturna

  Strong: stealth and bonus damage let her reposition and reset. Weak: she's still melee-range — hard CC catches her before the stealth saves her.

Itemization

Vayne's true damage ignores armor, so don't rely on stacking it. Burst her down, use hard CC and Exhaust, and Grievous Wounds counters lifesteal builds. QSS on the target removes her E stun setups indirectly via mobility.
