Keep the Shyvana buffs coming!

Shyvana Shyvana is one of my favorite champions even though she's fallen from the top. With the buffs to her jungle clear and % health damage, I've been working to make her a (more) viable jungler. Since counter jungling is a weak strategy at the moment, wouldn't it be okay to give her a more reliable CC like adding a small slow to her Q (like Trundle's Chomp) or maybe making her ult uninterrupted?

She should gain rage while dead. It's kinda bullcrap that nearly all of her opponents will have their ults off CD by the time they respawn. Hers won't even start to CD. It wasn't so bad before they messed with the death timers last season.

That's a good idea although gaining rage after a few items isn't too hard--maybe couple waves or jungle camps. I was thinking more in terms of gank pressure since she has no CC other than her ult (which is easily mitigated) and she doesn't deal enough damage for her W boost to really affect anything.

She is also my favorite champion in league (next is Anivia) and I wouldn't consider her "Fallen from the top", she is still very strong but just not played in every game anymore lol. Then again I've been playing her top since early season 3 and loved her even when people thought she was terrible top lane.

Also I do agree on her needing her ultimate to not be interrupted...It's just doesn't feel much like a crazy feeling when ulting and it's annoying on all the very little knock backs/knock ups that makes your ultimate useless. Also most people have been requesting that her E should slow enemies, would give her a bit more ganking potential for Jungle, and make her have some form of CC when played top.

She needs improvement in her dragon form. Her current skill set in dragon form is quite copy paste with small differences. She needs something like Gnar, a different function set of skill.

All her abilities becoming AoE in dragon form is deceptively powerful, especially with devourer. Applying 2x devourer's damage and your AD in an AoE is pretty big for how much of a tank Shyvana is

But she remain predictable unlike Gnar.

Yes please Riot! Sure with her current state I can carry a fair amount of games with her, but if I don't get rolling and doing very well early then I just end up doing terribly... I have not tried her with Cinder hulk yet, but I still really like devourer on her. Plz just a few more buffs to bring her back into the light a little bit more!
