How it works

General

  1. You play Vayne as 'Mage' with Hail of Blades!
  2. You build AP items.
  3. And you auto attack!
  4. Some of your abilities scale with AP.

Champion

  1. Your Tumble (Q) has AP scaling and works nicely with Lich Bane. It also works with Nashor's Tooth (it resets auto attack, so two procs).
  2. Your Silver Bolts (W) works with Shadowflame item as it increases true damage.
  3. You proc Stormsurge easily with your combo.
  4. This version of build is auto attack oriented and about Silver Bolts (W) procs.
  5. If you are interested in big burst instead, go check other Vayne build.

How to play

Items

  1. Playing Nashor's Tooth Vayne build, your first item depends on the situation. You can rush either Nashoor's Tooth or Lich Bane.
  2. Adapt to an enemy team. Are they full of tanks, and they rush tons of Magic Resist? You rush Void Staff as #2 or #3 item to counter MR stacking. Their team has champs with lots of healing? Rush Oblivion Orb as #2 item (upgrade to Morellonomicon as 4th or 5th item).

Gameplay

  1. This build relies on auto attacking, so do it as well as use your abilities.
  2. Fun item to use with this build is Guinsoo's Rageblade.
  3. Before going in, wait for your Hail of Blades to be up.
  4. Somebody is going after you each fight? Always getting ulted by enemy assassins? Rush Zhonya's Hourglass.

Tips and Tricks

Champion

  1. You can have instant Tumble (Q) if you position yourself next to terrain, wall or turret. This way you can push faster, proc Silver Bolts (W) faster or win duels (as you auto attack faster this way).
  2. You can elevate your Vayne game immediately just by changing direction with your Final Hour (R). Pretend that you are going one direction, just to R + Q into another.

Riot

  1. Tumble has many uses, but it cannot pass over walls.
  2. Condemn can be used to both pin targets to walls to ensure a kill, or to escape a pursuer.
  3. Don't go in first to a large teamfight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.
