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 Is this outdated?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.

(1) |

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.

Spike! How is Shy now after the changes, in your opinion? I'm on an Irelia Mid craze atm so I've only played her with the changes once. I feel like Riot didn't address her issue of being kited and peeled off carries so easily and she still suffers majorly in that regard. Despite being extremely fed I still lost the game. Pr sure I would have had a better chance split pushing all game honestly. Also her new Passive is awful imo.

(16) |

Hey EF! She's actually not too much changed from before, I would say. At level 1-5 there is basically no change at all.

The new Dragonborn passive:
- helps you in a game where you are doing well anyhow (it's possible to get 3 dragons at around levels 6, 11, 16 and now you take them faster - I've even managed to have 4 Elemental Dragons in one game)
- hurts you in a game where you are doing badly (for example lose first Dragon fight, or your bot lane is losing lane).

I don't understand why Riot would do that, as they call Shyvana a "high variance" champion anyhow...

E in Dragon form is stronger, but W is weaker. The E is especially strong if your team can CC a champion standing on the Scorched Earth circle (similar to Morgana's W).

I'm actually quite upset about the range reduction on Shyvana's ultimate, there was no need for that nerf and it reduces what Shyvana can do about being kited. Riot's logic (Shyvana's R range now matches Caitlyn's range) is just dumb, because a ranged champion shoots Shyvana while she is in flight.

I think you have to be more careful than ever with team composition now, basically Shyvana only works well where you have heavy CC on your team.

(83) |

Yeah her new Passive is just horribly designed IMO. It's inconsistent and unreliable and often times you essentially just won't have a Passive at all (oh, 5 Armor and MR, steady there Riot..)

I agree with you on being careful with Team Comps now, you can't really just pick Shy with or into anything because there's a high chance you'll just get ****ed come Mid and Late Game.

I dunno though, I just really, really despise her new Passive haha
