Gwen vs Vayne in Top lane is a hard lane on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: her Condemn is her setup — W through it for your only all-in window, and don't force the fight otherwise. Below is the exact page the OTP runs — runes, skill max order, summoner spells, item build and the four tips that decide the lane, plus a quick quiz before you lock in.

How to play it

✓ DO

W her Condemn

After 6, if she E's you you can W it and look for an all-in — but stealth plus ghost/flash make it a coin-flip, so don't force it.

Poke, then all-in

Trade on your W cooldown when she can't hit back, and only all-in once you've poked her low enough.

Give up CS safely

Let her auto you once to push the wave, then farm safely under tower — give up CS if you must.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never look to fight her in lane — even an all-in that wins on paper usually loses to her stealth and ghost/flash.
