Vayne ADC build for patch 16.11, generated from current-patch ranked Emerald+ games. Below: comp-aware build path, runes, top 10 bans for the matchup, and how Vayne wins.
Vayne is an AD carry in the adc, and on patch 16.11 they grade out as a solid mid-tier pick — a 51.4% win rate, 5.4% pick rate, 62,809 ranked games sampled. On the power curve, Vayne is a scaling champion: comparatively weak early, but one of the strongest picks on the map once core items come online — so the plan is to survive the laning phase and take the game over late.
How Vayne wins: splitpushing a side lane and forcing the enemy to answer it, and using Vayne's mobility to catch isolated targets. The kit grades 8/10 split-push, 7/10 mobility. Play around where Vayne is thin, engage and siege (3/10, 3/10), and the enemy loses their angle.
The most-played core build is Blade of the Ruined King, Guinsoo's Rageblade, Terminus, which holds a 55.0% win rate across 4,941 games this patch. Pick the enemy team to adapt each item slot to the specific matchup.
The matchup to respect is Kayle, where Vayne sits at just 42.8%, the lane swings the other way into Katarina (56.5%), and on the team side, Vayne gains the most from a Maokai (+10.2% pair win rate).
