Shyvana update flaws?

TroubleCraft·Nov 24, 2016·2 votes·527 views

Im quite new, but I already have Shyvana and I love her design, but her latest update changed her mechanics in a way. Do any of you experienced Shyvana players like this update? Because I played a few games with shapeshifting characters and plainly dragons, and I feel like she is missing something from both of the factors she mixes. Thanks for your attention, TroubleC

Tbh I haven't felt much change from the update, although I have started solo'ing drag at lvl 4/5/6 so maybe that's why the passive change doesn't seem to affect me as much.

New E is better for 1v1's than old one, so love that.

Unstoppable ult is also amazing.

No burn trail doesn't matter too much to me, if I'm running away in drag form then I've already fked up.

I somehow feel that her w forces her to choose if she wants mobility or damage which causes problems in situations where everyone are running around .c

While the changes do feel rather odd, even for Shyvana mains (myself, for example), they aren't terribly bad. Her q and w are still good, the E actually does more damage in dragon form so maxing e first or second is actually pretty good for early burst and sustained damage in a teamfight. Making the ult unstoppable is good and adding health ontop of it helps synergize well with titanic or tank builds.

Yeah, the whole "get tanky for kill dragons" is a bit gimmicky and annoying but she's still the same dragon lady we know and love. I feel like a couple things could've been left alone or done better, like her passive but I like this update
