How it works

General

  1. You play as a slow tank, disrupting fights and soaking damage.
  2. Thanks to slow + Font of Life, you heal allies. You can even get support items.
  3. Core items: Rylai's Crystal Scepter + Imperial Mandate. If you are behind and the game not go perfectly, skip Imperial Mandate and go full tank.

How to play

General

  1. Your all abilities slow and heal your allies and giving them Imperial Mandate buff.
  2. You can go some support items as well in some cases, like Arden Censer if you got a lot of auto attackers on your team.
  3. Guardian's Horn is a surprisingly good item for its price. You can keep it for very long time (or even have it as 6th item).
  4. Enemy team heavy on AP? Buy MR. They are heavy on AD? Buy Armor. You need some damage? Well buy that.
  5. Remember to consume your Grasp of the Undying procs!

Tips and Tricks

Riot

  1. Transfusion instantly deals damage to the enemy before healing Vladimir, making it one of the best last hitting tools in the game.
  2. Cast Hemoplague where it will afflict the most units.
  3. Sanguine Pool pops incoming missiles, so it can be used to dodge disables.
