Track: Vladimir's W — Sanguine Pool (28–16s cooldown). Untargetable dodge — bait it before you spend your kill window.
Read from Lissandra's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Vladimir.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Lissandra | Level 1 is clearly yours — Vladimir is a weak early laner paying health to cast E, and your Q abuses it. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | At level 2 his 28s Pool negates one combo, so trades come down to timing. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 stays even as the all-in becomes a Pool-cooldown timing game. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | By levels 4-5 you bait the Pool and all-in him before he can heal through it. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Your level 6 R hard-locks a Pool-cooldown Vladimir and denies his Hemoplague value. |
| First item | Even / skill | On first item you dive and Tomb him under tower before his health curve kicks in. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | In 2+ item fights your engage and peel shut down his dive despite his scaling. |
Level 1 is clearly yours — Vladimir is one of the weakest early laners, low base damage and paying his own health to cast Tides of Blood, while your 725 Q pokes him for free. Levels 2-3 skill out around his Pool: if you dump your combo he can Sanguine Pool out of the root and negate it, so the trade becomes about timing his 28s, not raw stats.

Start Doran's Ring + 2 Health Potions and back for Oblivion Orb (≈800g) — cuts his sustain. Build Malignance first, then Zhonya's Hourglass, with Sorcerer's Shoes / Mercury's Treads.
