If you're the player who observes the game and farms up in the first few minutes to throw a massive impact later on, then Vayne is ideal for you.
In the early game, Vayne is a weak champion. You must stay away from the front and farm as much as possible while trying not to die. This way, you can rush into the late game. Vayne has a short range, so it's better to take your time in a handful of situations, like landing the final hit on a minion for gold. Enemies will take advantage of this and kill you. With Vayne, patience and planning are the keys instead of aggressive frontline play.
How to play Vayne?
Vayne is a dragon lane champion, but due to her short range can't be used fruitfully in the early game. She focuses on attack damage to kill the enemy team. In the late game, with all the core items, Vayne can duel anyone. She has high maneuverability and kiting potential. Her silver bolts deal a lot of damage and are applicable against tank characters.
Vayne Build
Vayne builds from attack damage and takes advantage of attack speed. The Blade of the Ruined King is the first item for her. It provides excellent attack speed and damage. The passive of this item allows Vayne to steal movement speed from the champion. This is useful while chasing down enemies with Vayne's mobile kit. Blade of the Ruined King also gives you a physical vamp to help Vayne survive in the early planning phases.

FAQs
Q. Should the Barrier spell be used with Vayne?
A. Flash is a summoner spell that is a must for most champions. It's handy in sticky situations and landing the killing blow on the enemies. Additionally, Barrier can be used as the second spell for her. However, the only downside is that Barrier doesn't last long. So using it at the right moment is necessary.
Q. How to use Vayne in the late game?
A. Vayne has all core items plus more in the late game. She can carry the game with her dueling ability. She must stay at the back and let the tanks absorb damage while she can deal damage to enemies. Being the team's AD, staying alive is the priority.
