My name is XxBTExX and I have been playing League for about 6 years. I have 4 accounts in NA/LAN(better ping).

Highest rank:
NA = Gold 2
LAN = Platinum 1

I like to play off meta champions and builds as I like the extra challenge plus I enjoy how frustrating it can be for some players to go up against unconventional picks. One of my favorite champions/build this past year was the AP Shyvanna in Top and Mid lane and after playing over 100 games with her (on about 5 different accounts and 2 different servers) I think I have enough experience with her to make a guide. Going by my rank, I'm not the best at this game but in the hands of a capable player I think you can easily hit Diamond with this (while the champ and build have a ton of counters, a better player can work around them and destroy in team fights).

Great burst
Good mobility
Damage/Range greatly underestimated
Uncommon build

CS easily denied by champions with targeted ranged abilities
Nearly impossible to kill champs with sustain
Extremely squishy
Relies too much on ULT

You will rely on E to poke during Lane Phase.

If you are getting punished or countered try to use E to farm instead of poking.

Your W will help you get movement speed to avoid enemy skill shots.

With Dark Harvest/Scorch you can poke lane oponents and eventually your DH will stack up. Triumph is better but im bad so I stick to Scorch for the ezpz stacks

People will underestimate your E range in dragon form. Even if the fireball doesn't hit, the edge of the AOE will do FULL DAMAGE. Use that to your advantage.

Ult can be used to escape nearly everything. Its unstoppable. You get the CC effect after you land. (If Lissandra uses ult while you are mid flight, you will get rooted once you land.)

Aim for 40% CDR so you can spam E faster and keep W almost up all of the time giving you AOE/Movement Speed.

On teamfights try to wait for as many people to stack close together. Once you R into the whole enemy team everyone you touch will get stacked together and you can E them all. Damage from R+E should be enough to basically get everyone to about 25% health. If DH is stacked it can proc and kill multiple targets from the reset.

Use hourglass after R+E combo on teamfights. Often people wait for you to come out of Stasis meanwhile they will take extra damage from the ground fire.

People will underestimate your E range in dragon form. Even if the fireball doesn't hit, the edge of the AOE will do FULL DAMAGE. Use that to your advantage.

If you are ahead and against squishy champs rush Deathcap after doing the core items.

Magic penetration should be your go-to stat if you are ahead in the game.
