Any thoughts on Lethal Tempo for shivana ?

I'm not sure, I played with lethal tempo before they removed it, it was nice against more bruiser enemies (against squishys I only play pta when playing with the ad build), but now it seems to be weaker as before, and I like pta. But I haven't tested it yet, neither in test tool nor 5v5.

I’ve now played with Lethal Tempo a few times, and my first thoughts are that it is fine with ad Shyv, maybe optimal some games.

I play Lethal Tempo when I play with dps builds and feel it'll be usefull. I take this decision intuitively, but I'll simplify it as: PtA when I think the interaction with the enemies will be short, for example against squishy enemies. Lethal Tempo if I see I'll interact with the enemies longer and will be able to keep attacking them consistently, and think that the extra dps from Lethal Tempo will be better for my impact in fights. Conqueror if I think the interaction with the enemies will be extended, but not being able to attack consistently, more like: stop attacking and then re enter to hit a Q, a pair of autos, moving around, and another Q, etc. The ad is great for improving Shyvana's damage and the omnivamp is also great for ad Shyv. Fleet Fotwork some games when I see I'll need that movement speed to be useful.

Can you elaborate on why there's no need for the Deathcap in the full AP build? doesn't the bonus 35% come in huge for AP numbers???

Do you mean why I don't recomend to buy it before Void Staff? If so here's the answer: 1. Void Staff is more efficient for dealing damage with the fireballs, even against low mr enemies, Shyvana's E has a great amount of base damage compared to the scalings. I haven't tested it after the last changes, but I don't think it changed things too much probably. 2. Enemies have normally bought mr at the time you are finishing the third item. 3. In my experience Rabadon is hard to buy as third item because of its cost, it feels much more comfortable to buy it as fourth item.

Deathcap is less efficient than Lindry's, Void Staff and Shadowflame (considering the increased damage against low health enemies), and being that expensive forces you to wait more for the powerspike, which can hurt your gameplay. If you consider the damage of the area that the fireball leaves, Deathcap is even less efficient. Void Staff is already better against 70 mr enemies, and even better if the enemies buy more mr, and Liandry's is already better against enemies with no bonus health, and even better against health stackers, and gaining 300 health with the second item is very valuable for full ap Shyv. If you don't go full ap, Deathcap is even worse.
