Who Wins

  • You win pre-6 through superior range, wave control, and Seraphine's poke support - Vayne cannot contest your Q stacking.
  • Post-6 you maintain advantage through range but must respect Vayne's R all-in potential with proper positioning.

Synergy & Trading

  • Use Q to poke while staying behind minions, then follow up with autos when Nami W bounces to you for healing.
  • Focus on consistent Q stacking rather than extended trades since you outscale through item spikes.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Push waves constantly to deny Vayne farm and enable Seraphine roams - your Q waveclear becomes oppressive.
  • Maintain slow pushes to build minion advantages for potential dives or objective control.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't get caught by Vayne E into wall when pushing up without minions - always maintain minion buffer.
  • Never face-check bushes or fight in close quarters where Vayne can use Q to dodge your abilities and gap close.
