Neeko vs Vladimir

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Neeko wants to pressure Vladimir early and deny him a calm scaling lane to delay his mid-game burst.
Use disguise and minion wave angles to create pick opportunities and prevent Vladimir from safely farming.

Trading pattern

Trade aggressively when Vladimir's W is down to punish his vulnerability.
Use E and Q combo to burst before Vladimir can heal with empowered Vladimir Q.
Avoid extended trades if E misses or R is unavailable, as Vladimir can out-sustain and retaliate.

Danger windows

Respect Vladimir's W cooldown as it grants untargetability and negates your root and burst.
Avoid trading when empowered Vladimir Q is ready, as his burst and healing peak.
Vladimir's R window is dangerous in grouped fights; avoid clustering to minimize impact.

Early game

Use E through minions to root Vladimir and follow up with Q burst before he can respond.
Force Vladimir to use W early by threatening all-ins with disguise and E angles.
Keep lane pressure high to prevent Vladimir from comfortably using Q sustain and scaling.

Power spikes

Neeko's major spike is level 6 R for all-in burst and crowd control.
Vladimir's major spikes are level 6 R and empowered Vladimir Q trades, which Neeko must respect.
Neeko's first completed AP item increases burst threat and should be leveraged to pressure Vladimir.

Win conditions

Use disguise and E angles to create picks and force Vladimir to burn W defensively.
Punish Vladimir's long W cooldown by aggressively trading and zoning him from farm.
Leverage level 6 R threat to force Vladimir away from minions and control lane tempo.

Tip: For Neeko vs Vladimir, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
