Read from Camille's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Vladimir.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Vlad is one of the weakest level 1s — but so are you with one ability, so deny his Transfusion last-hits instead of forcing a trade. |
| Level 2 | Camille | You spike at level 2 with Q+E while a low-rank Vlad has no leveled Sanguine Pool — E in and double-Q for the true-damage hit before he can pool. |
| Level 3 | Camille | W Tactical Sweep's max-HP outer edge and self-heal out-sustain his Transfusion drain — force trades whenever his pool is down. |
| Levels 4-5 | Camille | Your Q true damage and E-stun burst a pre-Rylai's Vlad faster than he can pool-and-heal it back. |
| Level 6 | Camille | The Hextech Ultimatum arenas him so he can't roam — bait the 28s Sanguine Pool first, and fight outside his Hemoplague zone. |
| First item | Camille | Your first-item bruiser spike still beats his first AP item — close the lane now, before he stacks AP and out-scales you. |
| Two+ items | Vladimir | Vladimir out-scales hard: he pools your R, drains back through Transfusion and Hemoplague, and kites you — bring Grievous Wounds or let your team take him. |
Vlad is one of the weakest level 1s in the game, and so are you with a single ability, so deny his Transfusion last-hits and set up the lane instead of forcing a trade you can't win yet. At 2 you spike hard: a low-rank Vlad rarely has Sanguine Pool leveled, so E in, land the empowered Q hit, then wait the ~1s and re-cast Q for the true-damage second strike before he can react. The whole early plan is punishing the window before his pool comes online — don't burn your E chasing him when Sanguine Pool is available, because the moment he goes untargetable your combo is wasted.

Camille takes Conqueror on the Precision tree with Triumph, Legend: Alacrity and Last Stand, and Resolve secondary (Second Wind and Bone Plating) vs Vladimir.
Start Doran's Shield + Health Potion (vs his poke) and back for Executioner's Calling (≈800g) — cuts his healing. Build Trinity Force (Sheen → lethal Q resets) first, then Sundered Sky (Spirit Visage if you need MR + heal amp), with Mercury's Treads.
