um. He can't steal his teammates ults tho? That can only happen if a Karthus is on the other team, or you're playing blind with two sylas' and a Karthus. It is impossible in a draft or ranked game for a double Karthus ult.

I meant the scaling and 0 mana cost ult with a 7 second cd.

7 sec cooldown is hella misleading. Yes, its extremely low, but he's a squishy engage AP burst champ, the chances of him getting more than 1 ult off in team fight is hella low. And that's on top of the fact that certain comps make Sylas irrelevant (Nid, Illaoi, yasuo, taric, and Jhin; a perfectly normal comp, would give him hella crappy ults). His ult is so conditional that it needs to be a low cooldow; though i will agree its probably a little too low

His cooldown is contingent on what ults are available to steal and the last time he stole them. It itself is not low at all. If he steals a 320 second cooldown ult, his cooldown on it will be 335 seconds.

The "9 Second" cooldown is only after level 16, and only to his OWN cooldown, not to his access to the ones he steals. Even if he has a 9 second self cooldown, that still is more accurately represented by the 45-50 second cooldowns of his opponents'

If it is abusable competitive will find it and abuse it.

All new champs are intentionally released over powered. gotta get that skin money. You wreck witht hem and be like "oh shyt, my new main!" You get the skin...once their skin sells slow down....nerf nerf nerf.

Not in the slightest?

Sylas is bad right now. And has identity issues similar to Diana.

The one OP thing about him is his W. And that's the only thing that keeps him somewhat viable.

Lets gut a champion for Blind pick. Sounds reasonable.
