Thanks for the vote!

Anyway, I'm trying to build a carry shyvana, so some squishiness going to be included, but Fromal is generally enough.

Likewise, I hate Sunfire cape. It's a really ****py item and belongs on a tank, something which I explained Shyvana should not be. Warmogs, however is in the situational items.

Addressing the squishiness, it's not actually there. The 'sweet spot' of resistances, or the point where they reach their maximum effectiveness, is about 150. With dragon form up, I reach that point, so she's actually very tanky already.

As for Youmuu, bleh idk about it. I needed more AS and damage, so I said why the hell not. Need a better replacement since Zekes Herald became Zekes Herald.

Guide is awesomesauce. Build(s) are a bit too stronk and not enough defence imo. Youmuu's Ghostblade isn't the best choice for Shyvana but I do believe that if you switched it out for Sunfire Aegis or Warmog's Armor it would be much better ^.^

I will not down-vote you because I am one of your competitors and down-voting a competitor is a sign of very bad sportsmanship, especially if you're doing it just to troll. Even if you weren't, I would obviously not down-vote a guide just for that, especially seeing your guide is relatively well-written and offering variety and information for everyone. Still, AP Shyvana...no way. Shyvana doesn't even have the spell package to be a successful hybrid. People don't even build Ezreal full AP anymore and you thought on this for Shyvana? I myself, take Hextech Gunblade and Atma's Impaler even on Mordekaiser. There are just 4 melee champions in this entire game(except tanks) which should always be full AP: Fizz, Cho'Gath, Rumble and Kassadin. Not even Sion works full AP anymore...

Wow...sorry you feel that way...

In actuality, AP Shyvana DOES WORK, how much it works is questionable though. Flame Breath is far from unreliable, however, notice that while in dragon form the damage done is INSTANT. There have been countless times a champion has been on the edge of my AoE, when I hit them and score a kill. Dragon's Descent should be up at all times before a team fight, and it's impossible to use a ult more than twice per team fight, unless it's supposed to be spammed, like Kog'Maw's Living Artillery. Burnout is NOT your most important source of magic damage, it's Flame Breath, and with CDR you can have an AoE nuke every ~5 seconds. Also, 15% of Flame Breath's damage is done as bonus damage upon hitting someone with an auto-attack. This essentially gives AD at the cost of AP.

I'm not saying AP Shyvana should be used in competitive play, I'm saying it's fun for an alternative choice. If it displeases you that much, I can take it down or put it in the Humor section.

Rylai's Crystal Scepter, I'm sorry I wasnt more clear on this, and will change it now, should be CONSIDERED, but more of a last resort against certain kiting comps. If you don't like it, I'll take it off too, but I won't put up Frozen Mallet because people on this site are SO AGAINST wasted stats(not you, im talking Mana on energy users *cough* Lich Bane + Kennen *cough*). But think about it, a ranged slow will let you preserve your ult in 1v1's, especially late game where you can't leave your team to autohit minions. And Rylai's Crystal Scepter is cheaper than Frozen Mallet, but only by about ~100.

I also agree hybrid Shyvana sucks balls hard :p

And if you're going to downvote just because I INCLUDED AP Shyvana in this build, I suggest you eat some cookies and drink some tea to cool down.

AP Shyvana is ********.... Stop lying to people about this, there is no way this can work. Flame Breath is a skill-shot and it's very unreliable, it's AP ratio is tiny at best and Dragon's Descent is only viable for use if your raise your fury with auto-attacks(if you have to auto-attack anyway, why not just build AD). Besides, your most important source of magic damage, Burnout, guess what, scales with AD. These reasons make it so even hybrid Shyvana sucks balls hard, AP Shyvana is a stupid fantasy. Never build anything else on Shyvana but AD, ATS, MR, life-steal, health and armor. She DOES NOT NEED: spell-vamp, AP, CDR, active effects. Why on Earth would you ever use Rylai's Crystal Scepter on her, when you can just buy Frozen Mallet? More health, a great slow and cheaper.

Found a hyper-aggressive jungle route! :D
Thank god for stonewall.

I can see you weren't paying attention >_>
"the zhonyas is there for teh lolz. Also checking if you were paying attention" or something like that. I remember typing that :o

wtf, the guide is too long... cause my laptop crashed while loading, no joke xD

i think with this guide a newbie should be able to play her like a baaaws !!!

good job, keep doing stuff like this :)

highly suffice in content +1

*AP Shyvana is a good idea but Zhonya's doesn't exist anymore
