FLAME BREATH !!!

Technically darkmane's guide 10/10

Hi, Space! I came to say that I loved your build! I'm crafting an AP Shy jg build, I have some data about jungling and her usage from other guides, but I was Lacking about her usage on AP knowledge. Your guide opened my eyes for some mistakes of mine :3

However, I'm still curious about something:

- does Rylai's Crystal Scepter + Liandry's Torment combo works on her W?
- you've shown me that there is no need to rush Rabadon's Deathcap,since I wouldn't have enough AP and would be good if I were snowballing. but just the Liandry's + Rylai's would be enough for high damaging? I'm not considering other itens I would use for more damage :3

Once again, thanks for your time. What I like the most about shyvana is how flexible she is on terms of building itens and playstyle :D

Says it all

I've tried to make AP Shyvana work a long time ago but I didn't succeed. It didn't work because I built her as an AP burst Champion, and her burst was not high enough. I looked at your guide and tried to rush Nashor's Tooth instead as you suggested, and it worked better! I had the long term damage I needed to trade 1v1 and do decent damage.

However, though it is a really interesting way to play her in normal games, I don't think it is viable in ranked games. Her damage falls off hard late game, she's squishy for a melee AP Champion (and if you build her offtank she does no damage), and her laning phase is painful (in the mid lane, she can't safely farm without being harassed, her Flame Breath doesn't do enough damage to last hit minions from afar, and on the top lane she's too vulnerable against most Champions).

But as you can see, I did have some fun playing AP Shyvana !

So AP Shyvana is extremely funny to play. No it is absolutely NOT the most effective build path for her. With this said I have won normal games as AP Shyvana. And I've had people laugh pretty hard after they realized what happened. The key isn't OMGS AP. The key is to get a Sunfire, Liandries, and Rylia's. What occurs then is Shyvana's AE fire shreds hard. With max CDR you can shred the whole enemy team while slowing them. Which is excessively funny.

The catch is if you get behind you'll never reach the cusp of the build working. If you do fine then it works out. Again this is an extremely funny build to play with.

A very good guide I tried it out for the first time and went 8/0/3 and forcing them into surrendering. Im going to hop into another game trying it out. I did screenshot the 1st game so if you pm me your email i can Email it to you and you can pop it into your guide if you want. Overall i think its a great guide with a lot of great information but you could really spend some more time working on the formatting, to make it easier on the eyes. Either way its a good guide and you earned a vote from me!

And i'm sorry, but I watched the first 2 minutes of that video, and you didn't show any success as AP shyvana, in fact it only helped to prove that AP shyvana is not very viable.
