Played the best game of Shyvana ever this morning.

I WISH I had saved the replay.

I was fucking pissed. My team was flaming me going "Amumu is dancing circles around you brah" (he wasn't... I was farming because Amumu was too, and i can solo objectives unlike Amumu early.)

I just said, "You know what? Fuck yourselves. Here i go."

I stole 2 Barons and secured a third. Stole Elder Dragon. Got Rift Herald and 4/6 dragons over all. More cs, and Solo'd the enemy team multiple times picking up 1v3/4 multi kills. I back doored two exposed inhibs. There was nothing they could do. Despite all the flaming and bitching my team did I absolutely shrekt and they had to follow me if they wanted to win.

I feel so vindicated. All the years of maining my girl Shyvana . Feels good man.

I would like to add though, that while I obviously don't think AP Shyvana needs a nerf, I do think that a rune like Transcendence needs to be looked at.

Consider my build. I was allowed to be tanky while having over 500 AP. 80 of which came from the excess CDR provided by my build. That rune might as well have been a free Deathcap on top of Gathering Storm. AP Shyvana is supposed to have the drawback of being squishy. I've found

Twin Shadows and Banshee's was invaluable vs the enemy team for their utility in that I could catch people and still move despite their cc.

Congrats I know the feeling. Nothing better than doing it on a champion you love. DW about the replay; games like this live with you in your mind for so long. I still recall exceptional games from years ago.

This Pyke was 0/23 at 20 min Nautilus gave up and opened top after dying 5 times. Bot lane opened afterwards for about 2 mintues (12-14)

Then I popped off getting us all shut downs, EZ started playing, and Naut finally came back after about 5 minutes. Then after being 0/23 Pyke finally changed his mind about how "I wasn't bad and didn't deserve the loss." When we all started playing. We turned the tables hard.

This was the largest int I've ever won. Shyvana was the bridge for 25 minutes then EZ came online our frontline... frontlined, and Pyke got banned. Hard to beat that.

Mind you while EZ did pop off late, he opened mid lane and let them have 3 towers. That's why I attribute the game more to Shyvana then him, because me popping off early/mid game was the only reason he got to pop off late.

Talon and I got 42 kills, did I mention not counting assist? despite bot dying a whole lot and voli flaming, because that's what non junglers love to do to junglers. This didn't stop me from having a nearly perfect game.

Yup he's not wrong I still remember my fist 3v5 win in season 1. I was Heimerdinger and with me was a Sivir and a Karthus. It was a painstaking win that had us holding our butts in base while the enemy team took dragons and barons until death timers eventually got to the point we could finally push out of our base and take it to the nexus. It also helped the enemy teams mental started rapidly falling apart due to being unable to win a 3v5 with baron and back then it was the wild wild west in chat and only the MOST hateful nasty stuff was punished.

Congrats on your win btw.
