Edit: I've always felt that J4 midgame is a tanky beast. Nothing mathematical to back this up but it's always feeling that I've had. What's more weird is why I never decided to pick him up despite his versatility. Edit2: Yango would like me to clarify: "i hate regen when youre paying for regen i have no problems with getting regen for free see locket, aegis, warmogs, all 3 spirit upgrades" | ||

He already gets picked in every game, but people still don't ban him for some reason. See Ezreal Pick Vayne Win game He can't kite her, can't duel her, can't escape her. Well he can jump a wall I guess. Honestly with the Caitlyn nerfs Vayne is easily #1 carry now, the only problem is Draven. Have to be careful with MF but you can get ahead with ganks and then hold the lead. | ||

So far in most situations, I've been able to rush the item with little to no drawback. Sure it makes me squisher than if I had a Cloth or Ruby but early game/first 9 levels is more about picking your fights, especially as a Jungler. And to Yango's dismay, I think the regen off SS is not bad. philo stone hi. Edit: I've always felt that J4 midgame is a tanky beast. Nothing mathematical to back this up but it's always feeling that I've had. What's more weird is why I never decided to pick him up despite his versatility. For sure, I only run Razor myself on J4 and Lee Sin now (and I like NEVER jungle Lee Sin). With J4 tho I would rather spend the 1700 gold spent turning a machete into a Elder Lizard into instead 400 gold for a Razor (and get the nice armor from it) and put 1300 extra gold (enough for Kindlegem, Cloth Armor, and Rejuv Bead) into a faster locket/bullwark. I don't think the damage is a big deal on J4 tho, you have the absurd passive and a great armor shred, he's the only solo que jungler I run 100% tank. | ||

I also still run razor on Xin, he really needs the dmg imo. (Not that I play him that often anymore) | ||

And then they made it better and only marginally nerfed her ult. | ||

Just checked too, it's not just me: http://www.lolpro.com/guides/jarvan-iv/237-jarvan-build-guide-jungle-by-crumbzz Edit: Since when has J4 required a lot of farm? Did I miss something in the last week with J4? One of his strengths is he does very well with little gear. Locket + Razor + Merc Treds and you pretty beefy. What am I missing here? Because everything being said at the moment goes totally against what has made J4 great since the start of S3, how did it all change in less than a week? That guide was written when E still gave your whole team Armor (and doubled your bonus). A week later that was removed, and with it the biggest reason for maxing E first. | ||

Varus still awesome though. And Ashe really good sometimes. And Trist still good sometimes too. Saying someone is the #1 carry is a realy bad statement to make, as I can think of plenty of situations where I wouldn't want a Vayne and instead want someone else. | ||

Plus ofc the armor bonus. | ||

Team aura AS is situational, as late game it's only going to affect you and your AD, unless you have like Jax or Irelia top, but auto top champs are falling out of favor. If that's what you're looking for, Nunu does it better. | ||

The thing is, you can only pick Vayne after making sure the other team has an AD or they'll just go Cait who still makes your life miserable. Ez hasn't bee top tier for a long time and although Blue/American Ez is good it still can get countered (idk if Vayne is a good one, but I'll take your word). If we had to pick a n1 AD, I'd have to say Varus. He's a very safe pick-- no true escape, but good range, poke and brings his own CC. | ||

I don't think a good vayne stands a chance against even a mediocre ezreal in lane, especially taking into consideration that some of her best lane partners (nunu, nami, zyra) are nigh helpless against ezreal. Take into account that ezreal's effective range with blue buff (all auto attacks are now Qs instead) is more than double vayne's... and he has a teamwide steroid and a more effective escape... I really question your logic | ||

Ez just follow the fotm build and do no damage when your team needs it, and then end game comes around and you have a cheaper/less slot efficiency than the other ADC. Stall long enough and even the worst Vayne turns into a hyper carry. | ||

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. My mechanics are so shit. ;_; (Plus it really feels like she does no damage at all, even with BotRK+LW+PD+Mercurial I felt like I barely tickled Udyr who didn't even go full tank, and I didn't burst Karthus or Morg either. Gimme Graves instead.) | ||

There on HA I could only hit Rammus or Udyr (sometimes Karthus, he was pretty bad so he tried to rush me then sat there with noone in Defile for most of the fight) and with all the zoning produced from Defile and those 2 I couldn't maneuver around them to join the rest of the team. I'd probably have had the same problem with Graves but at least bursting Karthus without hitting Bear Stance/Puncturing Taunt/Dark Binding would be easier (until he gets Seraph) so I'd contribute. And he's tankier so I wouldn't die so fast once inevitably caught. | ||

I was Lissandra vs Lissandra and Nidalee and I kept yelling at someone, anyone, to put pressure on them, but nothing every happened. It didn't help that bot and top lost 4v2. Don't feed. And safely farm, and hope your team can win their lanes. Or lane swap. | ||
