Pros:

- Tanky from early to lategame
- No mana
- She turns into a freaking dragon
- Capable of scoring Pentakills
Cons:
- Focused in teamfights
- Her classic skin doesn't have the best artwork ever

Cons:

The runes are pretty straightforward:
Works well with all of her abilities, along her to gain fury a lot faster, decrease the cooldown of her
and farm for longer with
Shyvana starts off with relatively low armor, but gains more from the passive of
so she doesn't really need scaling armor runes.
Fortunately, her lack of armor is made up for by her really high magic resistance, these runes mean that she stays relatively tanky against mages for the entire game.
I don't think these really need explaining, they give her a nice chunk of health, help her stay in lane longer and are almost necessary for a tanky DPS.







The reason I go for
and not
is because most of her damage comes from
which deals magic damage, especially when you're in Dragon Form and your enemies are standing on your Scorching ground, it also works well with the passives of
and
allowing for slightly more damage. I also put 4 points into
because we already have a lot of attack speed from our runes, and the increased cooldown reduction allow her to use
and
more often too.
The defensive masteries are mostly just standard, increasing her tankiness and survivabillity.

Another thing you may not know is that while in dragon form she gains some new animations, so don't be afraid to /dance if you've got some spare time.
Useful Spells
Flash is a very useful spell for any champion, it allows you to escape a fight, chase after an enemy, follow your enemies over walls, there are so many uses for this spell, and I'm sure you know of them, so you'll know why this spell is so useful
Another incredibly useful spell, the true damage means that you can hit through tanks and get the kill, it's also very useful for revenge kills, and you can also score first bloods with it, a very useful skill indeed.
A good spell since this champion doesn't have any CC reduction, but most of the time flash, the tenacity from
and the speed boost from
will be enough to escape most situations, unless it a 3 v 1 fight where you really need it. Don't forgot you can also fly over walls with
, but cleanse is useufl if you need to get away in the open, you could possibly use this over ignite.
Another useful skill, but not really needed since you already have a movement speed boost in the form of
Fortify is a skill I'm personally fond of, you can save turrets that would otherwise mean an extra 150 gold for your opponent, and the passive means you can farm more effectively, however ignite is a better skill since you will be in lane most of the time with this build anyways.
Another useful skill, you gain more map control and it allows you to get to areas for ganks or teamfights quickly, you can also return to buy an item and then get back to your lane very quickly without losing too much xp, possibly worth using over Flash since you basically have a flash in the form of
Not So Useful Spells
Basically anything that isn't listed above, simply because the above spells are better
Since you're a tank you shouldn't really need this as it isn't much use lategame, and early game you have the health regen from
to keep you in lane.
Although Shyvana is very capable of jungling, this isn't a jungle build, so I recommend looking for one if you want to use this spell.
