we need you , wake up and update your guide pls

where are you

do you think which one better at late game, trinity force or wit's end ?

Sup Spike. There's a mistake in Gank and Tank build's notes, saying that we should take Visage instead of BotRK, but there's apparently no BotRK in this build.

Hi, Spike! It is me again. I was wondering: What do you think about the new on ? I seriously thought about it and used it as a third item, after and jg item and found it really good, specially for counter-jungling. What are your thoughts about it?? :D

(7) |

Informative guide, thanks. It covers just about anything a new Shvana player needs to know

how come you start w? I went in practice tool and found that e does more damage. Is this outdated? because Im pretty sure I read that you went w because celerity gave you more damage, so im guessing that this was before celerity was nerfed. Also do you have an op.gg I can follow?

Hello, Spyke. I am ~~your stalker~~ a fan of your work and I've been playing a lot with . Acording to you we could take drake already at level 4, though it was risky because we would be really low and could die should the enemy come. However, I tried jg after those changes in the jungle at patch 9.23 and I was astonished at how fast was growing. Before I would need to take red-blue-gromp and 2 mini wolves to get lvl 3, now I don't even need the wolves and, to make thing more interesting, just farming I managed to be 2 levels ahead of an enemy . To make it even better, taking the first drake, an that was supposed to be the hardest to take, was astonishingly easy and fast at lvl 5. I wonder if it would be that easy lvl 4, but given at how fast evolved just by farming (and taking the enemy chickens), is way easy to take 5 before going drake.

Now with those changes in the jungle, don't you think that was somewhat an indirectly great buff for a champion that take Dragons with ease such as Shyvana?

Hello :) Yes, I think the pre-Season 10 changes mean that Shyvana is 'back'! The main thing is the changes to jungle XP and camp spawning timers, so that being a good jungle farmer is now actually rewarded. Taking enemy chickens is a good strategy, someone like Rengar is always going to leave those at levels 1-2 because he takes them so slow.

Either level 4 or level 5 for first drake seems good to me, Shyvana can do it at either level if she went back already (for example, + + should do it fast and safe). The exact timing of going there in a game is obviously going to depend on your vision, your knowledge of where the enemy jungler is, and whether your bot lane has lane priority. So I should say in the guide that Shyvana is "looking" to take first drake any time from level 4 onwards.

I have aimed to update the guide for Pre-Season 10 fully when the pre-season started on 20 November but there's probably parts that are still out-of-date, if you spot anything specific please do let me know. I also plan to update some of the videos shown, but need to find good current examples of Shyvana play - if anyone wants to suggest a good Shyvana video in comments, please do!

I also think that you are right. They lowered hp of the dragons and the game is more based on dragons. This is indirectly a shyvana buff. The only con is cloud drake is useless.

yeah, only good for her passive, though the dragon soul do help on move speed and increase her DPS after ult for a while.

Not gonna lie, this is the longest guide I ever read. However, this has basically everything a shyvanna player could ask for. I think we will see more of her in season 10 due to the massive dragon changes. AP nuke shyvanna is going to be nuts when those changes hit the live servers.

not gonna lie but people prefer to play shyvana as an AP jungler now instead of AD but i've seen her hybrid

(16) |

Yes AP Shyvana is a lot of fun.

did shyvana strong at late game ? , and what should i do with her ?

(16) |

Late game Shyvana wants to tank up, you can even sell items and switch to a full tank build.

Ok so with the scuttle crab rework I cannot seem to have a healthy farm. I used to use scuttle to heal back up but since it spawns later im not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

(16) |

Shyvana shouldn't need to heal up if you keep in motion around the jungle camps - kite them slightly, let the Krugs block each other a bit, and you should take less damage.

You can also back early - as soon as you have 350 gold - get a Hunter's Talisman and then you can stay healthy in the jungle for a long time.

Hey Spike! been a long time since I asked you something XD

I've been thinking about an AP jungle build for shy and I am basing it with you guide :D but I wondered about something:

- you told me that is excelent for a full AP build, since it gives a nice passive and some atack speed. However, does Shyvana's Q also activates it's passive? because if it does, I would have lots of fun doing it!! XD

for now it is just that. Hope you can help me more on improving it :3

(16) |

Yes, Shyvana's Q activates the Nashor's Tooth passive ... indeed Q activates the on-hit effect twice for 30 + 30% of AP bonus damage.

That gives a nice AP scaling on Q, in addition to the AP scaling on W, E and R.

I also recommend the tanky AP items like Rylai's and Abyssal Scepter, but I'm sure you know that :) You might want to add a Wit's End into the mix for crazy levels of MR reduction.

(6) |

man, you are the best!! XD I thought "mage shyvana" was something dead but you made me see it is still possible!!
yeah, I will put some tanky itens and health. "Shy is tanky but not a Tank", as you said :D

Now I'll just figure out which runes and masteries fits the best and an order for the spells, although I believe the first 3 levels would be just like yours, since our beginning wouldn't be so different and W is our best friend.

Maybe a mix of , , and would be sweet *w* I'll keep in touch with ya :3

There is an AP Shyvana guide on Mobafire which you'll have seen I'm sure. But that's mainly looking at Shyvana in lane.

I agree with you that AP Shyvana can work in the jungle. I think there are basically two reasons, first she has good damage and defence naturally so that many different builds can work OK on her, second she does really well with movement speed and the gives extra movement speed.

If you decide to follow this build or even make a guide about this, bear in mind that other people will see it as a troll build. It's probably best if you are already a Level 5 player on Shyvana, so you can be successful with the champion however you build.

Sorry for not replying and thanks. I'm lvl 5 pklayer on shyvana, she was the first one that I achieved such a thing :v

Also, I read again the AP top guide and I am being more clear-sighted about my studies of it ^^' I've seen so many things on your guide, LyteChai's and on SpaceMonster's that I am re-learning all about it jungling and mechanics :3

I look forward to receive you critic on my guide :D
