Champion short description:

Shauna Vayne, that’s her name, the huntress of the night.

With the help of her crossbow and her passive, which bears the same name, she hunts her opponents in the Summoner’s Gap. When she moves towards enemies, Vayne gains 30 movement speed, which is more than running boots(25) grant.

As Vayne, you enter every game you play as an outstanding scaling duelist and lategame carry.

Vayne is equipped with the following abilities:

Q- Pike Roll – Vayne performs a short pike roll, the direction of which you can freely choose to reposition yourself, both to land a small poke and to chase the opponent down the lane or dodge dangerous abilities of your opponents.

W- Silver Bolt – Once you have leveled the ability for the first time, any attack on enemy players, minions or monsters will place a silver ring around its target. If you attack 3 times without changing your target, you will trigger the W ability and your opponent will lose 4-12% of their maximum life.

E- Condemn – Vayne pushes her target away and if they collide with a wall, they take extra physical damage and are stunned for 1.5 seconds, enough time to get to safety or fire 2 more attacks and trigger your Silver Bolts.

R- Last Hour – This is Vayne’s most important ability, your best tool to win a duel or teamfight for you and your team. Vayne’s entire kit is improved as follows: Your passive, Slayer of the Night is tripled, you gain 90 movement speed when moving towards enemy champions. You gain 30/55/65 additional attack damage on levels (6/11/16) for the duration of the ability. Each activation of Pike Roll during Vayne’s Ultimate(8/10/12 seconds at level 6/11/16) has a reduced cooldown (30/40/50)% and grants you invisibility for one second. If an enemy champion who was attacked by you in the last 3 seconds dies, your Last Hour is extended by up to 4 seconds.

If you are playing Vayne, your aim is to ambush isolated opponents like an Assasin. So you can push an enemy champion out of a bush into a wall and stun them there, then use the Last Hour to take them down with bonus damage, invisibility and extra pike rolls to generate gold and experience to bring you closer to your strongest point in the game – the lategame.

As exciting as the 1v1 and lategame team fights sound to Vayne, as a champion she needs time to level up and most importantly earn gold to live out this fantasy, but more on that later!

Description Skill Order:

Vayne starts level 1 of every game with her Q pike roll.

The laning phase is your weakest point in the game, so you want to use this ability to dodge enemy attacks and take the Vasale gold as safely as possible by load hitting.

From now on, you should still prioritize leveling W – Silver Bolts first.

Silver bolts are your way of dealing damage, as you don’t have traditional abilities like many other champions, but instead everything comes from your crossbow.

At level 3, you’ll take 1x E – Damnation to push enemies away from you if you’re in danger or to play a trade or all-in with a push into the wall and the 1.5 second stun that comes with it, which you can gain via Silver Bolt damage.

As usual, skill your ultimate to level 6/11/16 whenever possible.

Your skill priority away from the ultimate will be W-Max -> Q-Max and later in the game you will maximize the E.

Description of the build path:

Vayne is a classic on-hit champion, which means that one or more abilities cause increased damage during an autoattack. To make the most of this ability, we mainly need a lot of attack speed and additional items to boost our hit effects. Crit, on the other hand, is never really needed.
