Shyvana needs a buff

StormyChameleon··4 votes·982 views

Shyvana is currently one of weakest champions, all she can do is walk up to u and deal damage, her abilities have no cc, gnar who has a similar ulty has cc making him very affective. Shyvanas only cc is her knock back isn't very affective and her E and auto combo is affective with some attack speed, witch if u build for it makes ur tanking fall off. Gnars Q slows down the enemy. In addition gnar gets a second set of abilities when in mega gnar form, same as nidalee and reksai who doesn't transform but still makes her affective. shyvanas W is amazing, makes her a great jungler, and map clear great. she could also last in dragon for longer. all her Q is just deal damage, witch is good but it could b buffed. Her E witch is good in lane and the first ability u use when u jump in to deal extra damage, could also b buffed as the 2.5% max health damage dealt to an enemy, should b worked on a little cause that should b the reason she eats up tanks. To put it all in a simple way she needs some cc, a buff on her passive( its too simple)and some added abilities in dragon for or buffs in both forms , witch would make her a great ganker from the jungle and powerful in lane against tanks.

Buffs i would like to see:

Dragonborn Innate: Shyvana gains 15 / 25 / 35 / 45 bonus armor and magic resistance, doubled to 50 / 70 / 90 during the effects of Dragon's Descent.png Dragon's Descent. During Dragon's Descent all CC on Shyvana is reduced by 30%

Remove the MS decay on burnout.

Very good ideas honestly. I feel this would be perfect for Shyvana to give her that OOMPH! she needs to bring her back in to the spectrum :D.

There are just a few problems:

  1. Shyvana was nerfed due to the devourer-Titanic Hydra interaction, allowing her to shred entire teams without even hitting the backline. However, devourer was removed and Titanic Hydra was nerfed, but Shyvana didn't get un-nerfed.

  2. All she really needs is a faster cast animation on her E, the Q nerfs reverted and some base stat buffs.

I'm not particularly good at Shyvana, but she's one of my favorite champions. That said, as much as I'd like a buff and think she could probably safely be given one, at least in the games I've played with her recently she's done fine. She might be a bit weak, but she's hardly one of the weakest, and is definitely still playable at the moment.

I would rephrase this to Shyvanna needs more compensation for the nerfs she got because of the cinderhulk jungle / top era.

I bought a shyvana skin because i wanted to start playing shyvana again, Tried her in the jungle a few times in ranked, Took her back to norms because some sht wasent right.

She felt absolutely horrible to play. Honestly she needs additions to her skills. Trying to chase someone as shyvana is actually a lot harder than any other champ because one cc and boom. And by CC i mean slow

some players decide not to take boots do to that she can build dead mans plate and spam her w and shes running across the map, u r right tho, she has no cc there for not making her affective in ganks or ranked games, her jungle clear is great, but when it come time to pressure and gank, she has to depend too much on the laner to and all the cc( witch if they don't the and u don't kill the enemy laner they pretty much get away)

Hmm.... She's not bad. She's not great. She's great late-game, decent mid-game, and absolutely not-great early-game.

Her ult is a gamechanger, but without it, she's squishy and all it takes is a good enemy tank champ to bring her down. No. That tank doesn't even have to be good. It just has to be a tanky enemy champ. Boom. Shyv is gone.

After her ult, she's actually a good team-fighter. I was trying her out in bots the other day, and she could easily get two kills and bring the rest of the team to at least half health. But that's only if you win.

But you always win if there's a shyv on your team :P

yes with a tanky build she can flip a game around her late game is very strong, early game in top lane its all in being tanky and when not in dragon for(witch is most the time) shes done for. she needs to b balanced out, b buffed since her last nurf, and some cc

It takes away credibility when talking about balancing changes or requests for nerfs/buffs etc, when your data is being based off bot games. Not being a dick, just pointing it out there.

Shyvana is one of the 4 champions I actually play, and my only lvl 6 mastery.

She can be a monster if you play and build her right. Her rune build is probably one of the most important things about her. I build movement speed and cooldown, along with some magic pen, scaling health yellows, and some atk. spd. That along with the HP mastery and I have +500 health at lvl 18.

I think she could use some utility buffs though, the mobility in this game is insane now. Consequantly, I think giving her more utility on her normal abilities would make her just that much more awesome.

Shyvana needs a new kit because she has nothing to help her stick, and she is also in between a tank and a bruiser- but she has no CC or anything like that so she can't be built like a tank- but if she builds damage she is pretty fucking useless- but everybody does her job better-

Run on sentences ftw.
