Also check out the guides at www.solomid.net they have some awesome advice about things. You don't have to take what they say as the be all end all for certain champs but they often have some interesting insight.

You'll enjoy him, I'm not into the lore of the game too much but his story is pretty cool and his voice overs are amazingly well done.
Let me know if you need anything else or if anyone else has a question on champs or any aspect of the game. I'm no pro but I know my way around this game pretty well. Mid/Adc are my expertise but I've played every champ at least thrice.

Dude you were so right. I played him twice last night and I'm already looking forward to playing him again tonight
By the way, I'm not quite sure what his passive means. 40 points of bonus health?? Like where can I find his bonus health...?
Oh and is it better if I go all out AP with him? I'm thinking about getting all AP runes just for him, but what do you think?

A good friend who is plat mains Vlad. I've had nothing but success with his runes/masteries. You can look up Don Wild Cherry and go to his page marked Varkael and Mastery page VLAD. Rabadons 1st item unless you lack sustain in which case you buy an early revolver for spell vamp and finish rabadons second.
From there if you are still dying too easy but put out good damage make a Zhonyas or finish Will of the Ancients from the revolver and see if that helps.
If you are doing really well with just the Rabadons and a revolver and snowballing rush right into a Rylais but always include Rylais in your core build. Once you are doing well with your poke and winning your lane without the Rylais slow you will only dominate that much more once you make it.
So core build is Rabadons/Wota/Rylais if snowballing otherwise you go Rabandons/Rylais/Zhonyas or Abyssal scepter if dying to lots of ap damage with just a revolver for some extra sustain.
His passive turns ap into hp and hp into ap according to whichever you buy more of. You essentially must play Vlad as a straight AP carry by building as I've described above. With 500 ap and a rylais you will do great damage, have a great tank and one of the best initiates in the game.
Always be poking until it feels like a good time to initiate or if your team does even if you think you might lose it. Vlads hp regen is crazy when fed and there will be times where you're just so certain you're going to die then you get a transfusion off and manage to kite out the rest of the fight and win a 1v3 situation.
He is all about confidence. I really wish you luck and hope this helps. :P Be back later to edit this in case I'm too stoned and fucked it all up.

Yeah I tend to go Rabadons first ASAP when it comes to AP champs. Definitely worked for Vlad His W is my FAVORITE move of all time lol just knowing I'm safe for 2 seconds makes me feel happy on the inside Is Warhog's Armor a suitable item for him though?

Don't make Warmog's on him. You should do the core build and after that you can buy any ap item that is manaless or a GA for more tank/dmg/utility. Stacking lots of ap and the giants belt in Rylais scepter will put your health pool through the roof to 4k if the game goes on 40-50 mins. That with an abyssal or zhonyas + a GA = a ton of resistances.

If you see her starting to stack balls on the field then its time to run. I've played against her a lot before she was released and it comes down to who the player is often, and how well you can dodge or anticipate her moves.

I haven't gone against her once, I've been playing too much ranked to see her.
I'm more excited about the new ELO system than anything else. Yet since they've launched the new system ranked queues have been down 50% of the time. I'm going to lose my mind if I don't get all my accounts gold.
Luckily the new changes locked one of my accounts permanently into gold.

Syndra is extremely UP. She's weak as hell, seems fun though.

God damn my bad luck. This game goes in cycles for me, I get some decent teams and then I get awful teams that go like 0/10 and lose us the game regardless of how well my lane is doing.
I think to consistently do well at this game you really need a premade of at least 3 people. As I have found out two people generally isn't any better, so it must be three.
And to think, my wins to losses used to be double this.

Yeah, pugs are generally annoying. Someone told me you get queued based on w/l ratio, I don't know if that's true or not, but I definitely get much worse teammates when I'm queued with my friends who aren't very good.

I knew it! So there's an ELO even for normal games. That fucking sucks.

You might as well come play on the superior server. No offense but Platinum on EU is the equivalent of Gold on NA IMO.
US might not have won the season 1 world championship but I expect otherwise this season.
