Introduction
Hello Mobafire. M4a1SteakSauce here (in-game Dondrak), this will be my first guide. This guide will explain my playstyle, and the items I typically use and/or reccomend. You're welcome to play any champion however you like, but this is MY playstyle for
Shyvana, The Half-Dragon.
Pros / Cons
Pros:
-Great damage in general
-Great area effect damage
-Fastest jungler in the game
-Quite durable if built right
-Can solo other champions like
-You can use you're ultimate as a flash
-You can outrun many champions with your Burnout (W)
-You're a ****ing dragon
Cons:
-Is somewhat squishy early game
-Easily outranged
-Ultimate is scaled off of ability power
-You're only a half-dragon </3
Skill Sequence
I start with
, this is the first spell I max. I found this is overall more useful then maxing
first. I then take a point in
At level two, and
at level four.
Basically.. Take a point in each spell, and max
followed by
follow by
.
Summoner Spells
It's pretty self explanitory which summoner spells are useful and which are not.
Possible Choices:
The rest are meh. The ones above are ideal. I personally use
and grab
to get those early kills.
Masteries
21/6/3:
The first 21 point go in offense for damage.
The 6 points go in defense for some more armor and magic resist. This combined with your runes will give you nice survivability and damage output at the start.
The 3 points go in utility for some added health regen.
Runes
Greater Quintessence of Desolation(x3): This build is focused off attack damage.
Greater Mark of Desolation(x9): Like I mentioned above, an attack damage based build.
Greater Seal of Vitality(x9): Honestly, I just have these in my runepage. I'm sure there's a better replacement, but it does serve purpose as it gives you some extra survivabilty as you level up.
(x9): Since we don't build cooldown-reduction in our items, it's nice to have it in our runes. The more we can attack, the more damage we do. The more kills we get. /win

Build Explanation:
As I started playing
I noticed she works well with builds you probably wont see on any other champions. My build focus' on attack speed, and attack damage, while maintaining defensive stats that will help you crush enemies and survive. The main reason attack speed is so important is her passive.
the more attack speed, the more you can spam
and the longer your
is going to last. Your
is going to work out amazing with
giving you great AoE damage, while your other items provide direct damage aswell.
Item Build and Build Order:
Start off with
and grab 3
. Stay in lane as long as possible, recalling once you can afford
. Go back in your lane. By this time you should be getting some kills (if you're decent) and rush in your B.F.Sword From there finish off your

next. Then
. After this work on
to quickly build into an
. This is your base build You have good damage, armor, health, and magic resist. From here it gets mostly situational depending on your opposing team. I usually grab a
for the extra HP and slowing effect. Complete a
then finish with a

TL;DR ITEM GUIDE

Second Back: B.F.Sword then build into
Comes next.
Is after.
Summary
Well guys and gals, thanks for reading my short but sweet guide to
Shyvana, The Half-Dragon. She's a wonderful champion if played correctly, and can crush almost anything in her path. Like I mentioned earlier, this is my first ever guide, so I'm open to some constructive criticism. Feel free to vote and mention your suggestions and reccomendations.
