Come one, come all and welcome to my Shyvana build/guide. This is my first guide on this website so please don't be afraid to leave comments and suggestions below ^_^
I suggest that you keep on reading if you like to jungle, get in your enemies faces while breathing fire, and or if you just like dragons.
Shyvana is a jungler no matter how I see it. The way she clears it so quickly and flawlessly makes it her home. Jungler Shyvana is by far the best way to go.
EDIT: Switched the items in the build. Merc Treads instead of greaves, mallet instead of tforce, and sunfire cape. Also incorporated it into the items section.
For runes I run with the standard tanky dps build with flat armor penn red, magic resist per level blue, armor per level yellow, and last but not least flat armor penn quints.
Greater Mark of Desolation Armor pen will help you late game.
The magic resist will combat your weakness against range AP.
Greater Seal of Defense Gives you more survivability against those AD carrys.
Greater Quintessence of Desolation Gives all the armor penn you need early game.

For my masteries I run with going down the offensive tree making sure to pick up smite and alacrity. Smite will help you clear the jungle quicker and the alacrity will help you reach Dragons Descent quicker while also allowing you to clear the jungle quicker. I don't run the defense tree because in the utility tree Awareness is a must have because it will allow you to level 2 gank when everyone is level 1 still.








[Mercury's Treads size=42]I pick up Mercs bcause it gives you tenacity and that's very important for your survival in teamfights.. how can you kill someone while feared.. stupid fiddle >:O




Additional Items *Don't build the same every game*




*Reserved for comments*
This guide is intended for you to jungle and if you're not content with that then I suggest you look up another guide on the website for lanning Shyvana. Now that, that's out of the way we're up to the good part ^_^. So you're in the jungle right but where do you start?
Wolves
Wraiths
Gank Top/Bot lane
Golems
???????
Wolves
Blue
Wraiths
Red
???????
When you start at wolves you want to activate
burnout and pop a health pot. After you kill wolves move on to wraiths quickly and smite the big one, quickly take
Twin Bite while activating burnout and follow up with a Q. The wraiths should drop really quickly.
Fom there Pop a health pot and look at top/bot lane whichever you're closest to. At this given moment if executed properly you will be level 2 while they're still level 1. This gives you a huge advantage. You will either get first blood or make them burn 1-2 summoner abilities to escape.
If you got first blood then good for you :D now you want to either stay in that lane to cover if your teamate is low to soak up xp or just get 3 creep kills and head to blue buff.
At level 3 make your way over to blue. Whoever is mid or closest to blue and needs it make sure you give it to them because it will be invaluable for them to sustain in their lanes.
At level 6-7 make sure you go and pick up dragon. Ward around it to secure the kill.
From here you should be in control of the game by monitoring lanes and continuously ganking. Take red if you don't need to gank and if you're low just b back to base and pick up items. *Whenever you go back pick up some health pots until level 8* Health pots are very important because it allows you to recover from ganks and continue to jungle without having to b all of the time. Carry about 2-3 health pots on you until level 8.
Make sure you also pick up wards for dragon, blue, and red. these are of great help to your team because map control can easily change the tide of the game.

Your W is your bread and butter for farming. When you're clearing a lane just pop your w and keep auto attacking. It will last an entire creep wave at level 3! Spam your Q + E. While jungling your W will have about 80% uptime which is almost insane!
Okay so you can turn into a dragon... so what? Knowing how to use your ultimate is vital to your success in teamfights/escaping/and picking up runners. Your R can be used as a escape or to chase someone down. Keep in mind it will allow you to fly over most walls so use it wisely. *Don't ulti over the small walls lke at red where the enemy can simply catch up to you by walking around*
While in dragon form you want to W and move behind your target to allow them to take aoe damage from your W and hit them with your E + Q. Assuming that you're fed or doing well your damage output will be very nice and you can practically take down anyone!
One thing for sure is that you stay confident and relaxed. It may take time to learn this champ but once you get the hang of her the only thing you will be hearing is LEGENDARY!!

So why choose Shyvana and this build? She can offer alot to the team by jungling, sustainability and great damage output in team fights which makes her a crowned jewl. Remember to keep calm when playing, ward, and monitor lanes. Other than that I believe you're on the right tracks to success!
Thank you all for reading my guide, remember this is my very first LoL guide so let me know what you think in the comments. I'm open to criticism and suggestions to change things in the build. This is my build and you don't have to follow it word for word so don't be afraid to experiment and let me know how it goes!
