Expert take
Vayne is a demanding pick, but her purpose is extremely clear: survive the part of the game where she is not allowed to fully play, then become the champion who decides whether a frontline can still walk forward. She should not be picked vaguely to “scale and carry,” but because the draft gives her targets, time, and enough protection to set up her auto-attack cycles. The player who succeeds with Vayne is not necessarily the one who attempts the most outplays; it is the one who holds Q for the real threat, understands when Condemn creates a kill or simply denies engage, and accepts that some fights must be won slowly. In a good Vayne game, she does not force chaos: she waits until the enemy traps themselves inside it.
