vlad's is a pretty common item, but I've been wondering... what if you could toggle its aura affect, like you can with Ring of Basilius? Seeing as the ring builds into vlad's, wouldn't it make sense for vlad's to inherit the toggle ability? A trivial change maybe, but perhaps it'd make more sense to add a toggle option to something like vampiric aura so you don't have to worry messing up creep equilibrium or what not. I don't know, just food for thought!

Hmmm... I actually like this idea. Maybe not Vamp Aura just because, you know, passive = inherently on. However, Vlad's toggling would be great for if you want/don't want to push a lane. I can also see some awesome screw-ups going into teamfights with the Vlad's off the whole time.

I think Vlads is often got as a mid or late game item, when you actively want to be pushing towers.. So it would be kinda moot to turn the aura off..

The only time when you want to hold the creep equilibrium is during the laning stage, when you won't have a Vlads yet.. By the time you have vlads, farm the wave, let your creeps push, go farm jungle, ancients, get runes, roshan, do stuff..

In all, I don't see a reason for this..
