Vamana is a very underrated tank/bruiser that can be very good at harassing early to mid game. His strong defense allows versatility to his builds that can allow some damage items without being too squishy.
This build that I came up with is really good at countering both magic and physical and making the most out of Vamana's passive 
Sleeping Giant
Great passive that allows Vamanna to tank against phys. carries to gain power
Great escape and great closer. Can be used also for burst damage in certain situations. I like to max this second for the burst damage
Vamana's strongest skill that is good for harassing. Definitely max this first.
I see allot of guides maxing this second. It does do good damage but often times people tend to avoid the second hit. However, it's good to have early for the slow.
This skill has been buffed recently and dishes out good damage. To make the most out of it, a slow is necessary.
Early Game
Start with 
Mark of the Vanguard a Potion of Physical Might (consume it), 3 Healing Potions and 3 Mana Potions
When you head back pick up Ninja Tabi and a Creeping Curse
Mid Game
I like to start out with this as it gives great early overall stats against both physical and magical. Start stacking the stacks early by getting into team fights. More protections = more damage
This is a must for Vamana to utilize the damage output of his 
Colossal Fury by slowing them with each basic attack
go with Midgardian Mail for the extra slow
go with Runic Shield
This build is great against a heavy AD lane and is possible with the recent changes of Witch Stone
As usual, start off with this, 3 Healing Potions and 3 Mana Potions and a Potion of Physical Might buff
Witch Stone The recent changes of this item allows you to replace your boots for a nice DPS tanky build
Ankh of The Bear More attack speed and a bit of health
Get this for the extra health and the mandatory slow
The rest of this build is up to you depending on the enemy team.
For damage:
Eye of Retaliation This passive is really great and the lifesteal helps in surviving the fight
Focused Voidblade No other bruiser gets more damage out of this item than Vamana
For harassing in lane I often use this combo:
-->
It takes time to learn the distance of this move 
Umbrellarang. Try to poke the enemy at the very end of when the umbrella comes back. When you do land the move, the slow allows you to run up to the enemy for 
Armored Umbrella
-->Cancel (right click) --> Basic attack -->
-->
This build allows Vamana to be aggressive while slowing the opponents down. I love Hide of the Urchin on Vamana as the stacks can increase his physical protections as well as his damage output. Make sure you be as aggressive as possible to gain those stacks early. Remember that 
Clear The Path can be used offensively as well and can dish out decent burst damage.
Hope you enjoyed my guide and become a beast with Vamana!
