With 2.4% popularity, Vladimir constantly encounters meta-dominant Irelia (4.1%, 16th place out of 65 Top champions). Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Vladimir performance in the current patch. Identical tiers, different outcomes: Despite matching A-tier ratings, Vladimir struggles with only 43.3% win rate. Irelia's mechanics prove more effective in this particular confrontation. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Conqueror + Triumph combination (80.5% win rate) plus optimal itemization Hextech Rocketbelt, Riftmaker, Rabadon's Deathcap, and Ionian Boots of Lucidity boosts your chances from 43.3% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.
Farm your way back: Vladimir's superior farming (7.49 vs 7.42/min, 4th among Top) offers a comeback path. Focus on safe CSing and capitalize on your 0.07 CS/min natural advantage. Damage doesn't equal wins: Vladimir outputs more damage (984 vs 797/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Strong individual performance: Vladimir maintains better KDA (2.00, 22nd place vs 56th for Irelia), but loses the matchup overall. High KDA without wins suggests difficulty translating individual advantages into victory conditions.

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
The magic damage that Vladimir deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Irelia deals mainly physical damage (71.83%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Vladimir is higher farming statistics (ranked 4th among role champions) (versus 7th for Irelia), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.5 versus 2.0) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Vladimir player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Irelia player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
