Additionally, Shyvana starts with 5 bonus armor and 5 bonus magic resistance, which is permanently increased by 5 for every elemental drake (Cloud Drake, Infernal Drake, Mountain Drake, and Ocean Drake) and also Elder Dragons that her team slays.
The second strike applies on-hit and on-attack effects at 100% effectiveness and is affected by critical strike modifiers. Shyvana's basic attacks reduce Twin Bite's cooldown by 0.5 seconds on-hit. Twin Bite resets Shyvana's basic attack timer.
Dragon Form: Shyvana instantly attacks all enemies in a cone around her target before applying Twin Bite's effects to each of them. The basic attacks deal 100% AD (+25% of ability power) physical damage, are affected by critical strike modifiers, and apply on-hit effects to each target hit. The second strike cannot critically strike nor trigger on-attack effects, but it will still apply on-hit effects. Additionally, Twin Bite's empowered attack becomes unstoppable.
The movement speed bonus is reduced by 15% of the original amount every second. Shyvana's auto attacks increase Burnout's duration, up to a maximum of 4 seconds.
Dragon Form: The range of Burnout increases to 350 / 365 / 380 at rank 1 / 2 / 3 of Dragon's Descent.
Shyvana's basic attacks against marked enemies deal 3.75% of target's maximum health bonus magic damage, capped at 150 against monsters.
DRAGON FORM: Flame Breath explodes upon hitting an enemy champion or reaching the target location, dealing 100−160 (depending on level) + 60 / 100 / 140 / 180 / 220 (+0.6 per attack damage) (+100% of ability power) increased magic damage to them and surrounding enemies and scorching the earth for 4 seconds. Enemies standing on scorched earth take 30−60 (+0.5 per attack damage) (+10% of ability power) magic damage every 0.5 seconds (depending on level).
Active: Shyvana transforms into a dragon and dashes to a target location. Enemies along her path take 150 / 250 / 350 (+100% of ability power) magic damage and are pushed toward her target location. Shyvana must have a full fury bar to use this spell.
While in dragon form, Shyvana gains 150 / 250 / 350 bonus health and her attack range is changed to 175 / 190 / 205. Dragon form also increases in size by 8 / 16% at ranks 2 / 3.
While in Dragon Form, Shyvana will lose 5 fury every second. Once her Fury bar is empty, she will return to her normal state.

Shyvana runes
