Who is Elite500? The #1 Vladimir doesn't care about his team 

cringe ad

I love this video of yours. As a Yorick main, Elite and I both has the same mentality, same playstyle. I love this guy. What people normally mistake about league is it's not a game of kills, but a game of gold. My opponents who is legendary at 10/0 gets surprised when I kill them 1v1 when I'm 2/1. I thank you for making this vid as I am struggling to find a mid lane champ who would be fit in my selfish playstyle. I think I've just found my newest mid lane.

As an average elite enjoyer i can tell you, if theres one thing he likes more then gold its exp, you can hear him say "ah, i got it", while the canon dies to creeps, hes talking about the exp. Thats the reason he ghosted and flashed not the 4 cs.

I know it was only a joke tho ;)

@@KingStarAlex a lot of high elo players, they don't just care about cs, but also the exp. The amount of times I hear a streamer go "as long as I get the exp I'm good" like it's a damn Pokémon game lol

@@IGamingStation yeah thats so true hahahahaa

@@IGamingStation then u got low elo with your jungler 4 levels behind

I've found 3m master Vlad players still going 1/9 with 5 cs a minute, so I don't see a difference

On the champ with the lowest

don't worry, here instead comes my mastery 6 vlad with my pathetic attempts at suddenly changing both my build and playstyle

Queueing as we speak

@@Pyrrha_Nikos some people see vlad like yuumi so they just go late game runes/spells, don't give a fuck and proceed to misplay the entire landing phase just trynna last hit and heal whenever xd

Honestly. I took a lot from his streams

I feel like you can’t be bad with a basically point and click champ though.

@@Bloodthorn48 He's far from that. On paper you just Q and one shot someone, but there are so many factors to consider. Positioning is very difficult with him, as well as managing his cooldowns. Early laning sucks if the enemy has at least 3 brain cells and his roaming/wave clear potential before 20 minutes is terrible. He has very short range, attacks in bursts, damages himself with his abilities and build almost no resistance items.

@@Bloodthorn48 Because of this playstyle you're going to be playing from very behind/very negative tempo the vast majority of the time, this in itself, from a macro perspective, is challenging.

​@@Bloodthorn48 Brother have you ever done the maximum fast combo on vlad? The one that requires you to let off E after flashing in that millisecond Q and R before the e projectile hits? It's insanely hard to master because the timing window is super small. If you just hold E flash RQ or QR your e will be delayed since casting Q or R while HOLDING E cause E to force auto cast at .3 seconds later. It stutters you combo. Vlads sleeper combo is super hard to master. Once you do though it's OP as fuck.

same

Same. I saw his preseason 8 guide and I one tricked vlad all of S8 and S9

@Jksm Mkv my brother in christ that matchup chart is like 3 years old dont use it

rock3tt inspired me.

@@esqzk its literally 1 year old and he himself said that most matchups are pretty much the same so you can use it

Yea I mean u just gotta understand on which champs u can afford to roam and which not, like if Vlad joins an early scuttle fight he won’t be really able to provide anything for his team

we about to see alot of vlads ...

@@spencerhotello7468 right?

Uhh, well if you're a "scale for late game" champ then you're not supposed to roam. Same thing with nasus and kayle. Just farm, ignore the map until you have 3 items. Am a Kayle main, btw

Other champs to practice this for midlane incase you don't like vlad are Veigar, Kayle, Cass, Kass, Anivia, Ziggs, Corki. I think this is a good skillset to work into muscle memory to have more balance to overall gameplay, and I'll likely being doing this myself.

On early game Late game of course he dive u in ur base but early game he cant kill u if u get close to him for no reason

@@rugalvex9749 My guy he was 8 mins into the game 💀

You ignored 90% of what he said at that point and he also did not just dive them but whatever

The part where he was talking about how the guy is killing himself, is because the karthus was harassing him and got himself down to 50% and low mana.... And vlad is a monster at tower diving and it was a free tower dive after baiting the exhaust from the karthus. Karthus being greedy still stayed after he used his exhaust and got punished for it.

Yea except Vlad here, he poked with r-combo and walked off, saving all summs into the least mobile champion in the game, Karthus. And, only then did the 40% hp- w/ a burned exhaust Karthus go back to contest tower into an all-summs-up vlad. Not like an Ekko or Ahri would have an ult in the back to survive or anything.

but if you happen to lose the second fight you'll lose 40 AP and likely lose the game quaranteed, compared to buying the fiendish and completing one more item

@@eVill420 There's no guarantee that you make it to the next item though? You want the highest percentage chance at the current moment. Also if you're trying to account for losing the 2nd team fight, that makes no sense. You have to assume you'll win at least 2 fights. In that scenario, Mejais is the best item

@@eVill420 as long as you dont die the stacks will remain so even if you lose just make sure you survive

@@eVill420 put 4 teammates in front of you if needed, abandon all of them if see the fight going south but do your best to kEEp the stacks

@@eVill420 You forgot we are talking about Vladimir here and one of my lost games i was 9/0. If you die with Vlad you deserve 14 day vacation.

does azir hard counter vlad or whats the reason behind it ?

@@bavo5179 hard outrange, high dps, consistent poke is insane pressure on Vlad, builds a lot of HP so he can't be cheese killed. Doesn't get outscaled much.

@@bavo5179 technically everything that out ranges u and can’t be insta killed is a hard counter to Vladimir. Anivia, Azir, Zoe all hardcore shit on him, even Xerath is a kinda hard matchup for him.

@@bavo5179 yes. You can easily poke him out of lane and deny him CS. And if for some reason he won't recall, you just jump onto him with WEQ, ignite him and watch him kill himself with his W (it costs him HP to use it.)

almost as bad as anivia matchup, idk which is worse

Not just Vlad tip.

On god that tip helped me so much when I was first learning the champ. Play selfish get 8-10 cs/min win game. Preach it

Nah bruh I be winning games with 2.5 cs bro just perma roam and my whole team fed asf gg

msot of the time they don't listen to eaach otehr bad call they refuse to follow it and do something else then rage that nobody follow them that why solo q (and that type of gameplay) will eventually kill the game u can't be solo in a team game

@@goobandz1663 doesn't really work outside of pisslow

im a kat otp and watching this makes me want to try vlad out so bad lol

@@fantasma_11 every time i pick vlad it usually doesn't go well, swear people in my low elo (d2ish) perma fight and tilt T_T

@@loserbrandon yeah, sounds like the point of the video. You have to accept it and try to perma 1v9 (or you could try telling you team the gameplan, but as elite said i doubt they would understand)

@@fantasma_11 they never accept it LOL

Omgggggggggggg is that vortexual

How did it go? Did you improve?

@@kostasgamer6725 i stopped playing this dog ass game bro

@@RiseSoup real

@@RiseSoup ( GOOD ENDING 1)

​@@RiseSouphe tried and got slapped and flamed cuz he isnt challenger/GM level

he ghosts and flashes out of rage in the video lol

nahh, he is a good player but there a much beter attitudes in the community, he is like super toxic when smurfing. It's kinda sad how Calvin's personality developed over the years, he went from a cute unsecure but nice guy to a fragile ego average league dick

@@kroneexe cannon exp

@@kroneexe Clueless

@@kroneexe this was not a play out of anger. Early into the game he sometimes ghosts to lane to get cannon if he knows he won't use it anyway in the next minutes

how you get past all the enemies without ghost?

@@stefanristic9245 rocketbelt dash (also giving movespeed towards enemies) or night harvester proc + nimbus cloak from ignite is usually enough, I also switch to predator/phase rush depending on their team

im suprised Riot hasnt tried the ranked 1v1 mode yet

THIS

we need a PvE mode

Same my man

@@full-timepog6844 There was 1v1 and 2v2 mode couple of years ago. Like maybe 6 or more. Not ranked but still I always wished they would bring it back.

And even if you would carry there are multiple comeback mechanics for losing team.

definitely, especially since it's a game mostly played with 4 other strangers, being so team centric is just annoying, like playing jg requiring your lane to have prior is annoying, bot feeds, you can't get drag, team blames you lol

the balance of power must be preserved

Yeah. sad that kassadin isnt that 1v9 anymore i hope he gets a rework soon

durability patch made it harder, vlad no longer gets big fed and flash R E Ws to win a teamfight, its a bit more of a back and forth.
