Vayne vs Ashe

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

This lane turns on punishing Ashe's forced short-range CS attempts with (Q) autos and spacing.
Vayne wins extended trades and scales harder, so keep the wave on your side to deny her poke.

Trading pattern

Step forward to auto Ashe during her last-hit animation on melee or low-health minions if enemy support is out of zone.
Use (Q) to reposition after each auto, maintaining distance and avoiding (W).
Hold (E) to (E) Ashe into bot lane walls when she overextends for CS or after her (R) is down.

Danger windows

Respect (R) stun when her support or jungle can follow up; avoid stepping forward without peel.
Beware of (W) when minion wave is large, as it amplifies her poke and slow chains.
Avoid fighting near walls without (E) ready, as Ashe's slows can trap you for extended trades or picks.

Early game

Hold the wave near your tower early to limit (W) poke angles and reduce her slow chains.
Punish Ashe's last hits on caster minions when her support can't immediately trade back.
Avoid pushing early without vision to prevent losing (E) engage windows and gank vulnerability.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) lets Vayne stealth (Q) and outplay Ashe's lack of mobility; use it to dodge slows and reposition.
First marksman item spike improves Vayne's burst and all-in threat; pressure side lanes and punish exposed Ashe.
Two-item spike turns Vayne into a true damage DPS threat; force isolated duels where Ashe can't kite effectively.

Win conditions

Convert last-hit punishes into health leads and crash waves to take turret plates early.
Use side-lane pressure after two items to force Ashe under tower and secure dragon vision control.
In teamfights, leverage (R) stealth tumbles to reposition for sustained DPS while avoiding Ashe's slows and picks.
