Hi,everyone today i am going to show you my Vladimir build.Vladimir is a primary a mage with strong tank abilities.He relies on his powers to drain health from his opponent and kil them so lets start,with guide.

Pros:
-Easy to play good
-Good late game champion
-Has a great passive(one time i reached 4000 hp with him)
-Perfect for mid and top lanes
-Hard to kill because of sanguine pool
-Have great area of effect damage
-Perfect for team play
-Great sustaining abilities

Cons:
-Bad champion in early game
-Depends on his W(Sanguine Pool) on being off cooldown
-Doesn't have the best burst damage

At early game i reccomend buying boots for little extra speed since you will need to escape from time to time from battles.Since i like Vladimir to be fast i have added 1.5% of speed on masteries 4.5%on runes.The reason why i like Vladimir to be fast is because its easier both to hunt and escape with his W(Sanguine Pool) when he is faster it also helps you to engage into teamfights faster giving yoour allies adventage when you go Sanguine pool on your enemies and for each enemy killed you will at least get assist.
Now lets get back to the point Vladmir is very weak at early games so try not to feed other champions.Since you are mage you should be able to attack enemy minions without going close to your enemies.But you if you really want to do something at early game you should try to preserve your minions and destroy enemy minions and push your minions to the turet.In early game dont forget to upgrade your Q since its the most powerful weapon you have.
