Shyvana could use some buffs this meta. Farming jungle is weak batch

Farming jungle camps has never been less rewarding, which is her main strength. Also games are shorter so she doesn't get as many dragons which hurts her passive. Sorry if my English is bad.

Buffing her in order to fight the current meta will just make her too strong when that meta ends.

We are currently in a meta that almost nobody wants to be in.

Camp farming isn't why shy is bad atm.

Shy pre-6 is just useless, you could play any other jungler for more reliable ganks even if they lack CC.

Post 6 shy is still outpreformed, you can power farm as Evelynn Taliyah Kayn Nocturne and have significantly more impact. Shy will always just jump in and die unless really fed and get outpreformed early.

Warwick is pretty much just better shyvana. Tank, deals damage, sticks, has a more reliable CC tool+a diving surpression, but also has healing and gets damage reduction to survive dives longer. Only thing shy has over WW is her ranged E and unless you ult thats not really too great.

They need to rework her kit to be more adaptable, because she's either only meta when; insanely overpowered, or when everything else is significantly weaker to the point they can't even bully her early.

Shy farms. Farming was nerfed, therefore Shy was nerfed. Once farming is buffed, Shy will be buffed.

Maybe, at most, make her Q deal more damage to Scuttle or something, since that's where all the farm went. Anything more than that will just cause her to swing the other way the minute they rework the jungle again.
