Understanding how to play against this popular champion becomes essential for consistent Vladimir performance in the current patch. Meta strength confirmed: Vladimir's superior tier rating (A vs C) translates into a solid 53.0% matchup win rate. This performance explains why Vladimir ranks 25th in win rate among Top champions.

How to Beat Jayce as Vladimir (Top)

The Vladimir versus Jayce matchup in the top lane is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

The magic damage that Vladimir deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Jayce deals mainly physical damage (77.63%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

An important advantage of Vladimir is higher farming statistics (ranked 8th among role champions) (versus 30th for Jayce), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.7 versus 2.0) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Vladimir Top versus Jayce Top matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Vladimir player to maintain constant pressure on Jayce, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Vladimir tips:

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

Playing Against Jayce

  • Jayce can attack in melee or at range. Pay attention to his stance and weapon color to know how he is going to attack.
  • If you see Jayce drop his Acceleration Gate, be careful, he is probably about to cast Shock Blast.
  • Jayce is strong in the early game. If he gains the advantage, play defensively.
