[Riot] A Buff Proposal For Shyvana That Feels Right

19 19 19··5 votes·948 views

I Think this buff is something that all of you can agree with since most of you do not want Shyvana to have her own dragon kit nor be similar to Gnar but I believe this kind of buff can express Shyvana's Dragon dominance.

**So, the proposal Riot is that you should buff Shyvana's CC Ult similar towards Yasuo wind wall where she's Immune to any kind of CC/Utility when she takes flight. **

But what I also had in mind is when she flies over champions, instead of pushing them forward (because in most cases pushing a champion forward helps the enemy survive) Shyvana pushes the enemy aside with a utility that reduces their movement speed for a brief second similar towards Draven's E but most likely between 1 -2 seconds or maybe just like Draven's E, 2 second. This is just a suggestion I'm giving here.

Now, you guys can choose whether Shyvana's ult can reduce movement speed of the enemy for 2 seconds or less when they are knocked aside OR have the enemy simply just be knocked aside like VI's Ult.

Think about this, if you want her ult to ONLY knock them aside** it would only be a gentle push like how she pushes the enemy NOW** but if it causes them to have a reduce movement speed then her ult will be very valuable in ganking and engaging/disengaging team fights.

Remember how WEAK the push shyvana makes right now when she ults into the enemy, it's barely noticeable.

When I see shyvana fly ACROSS, I don't picture them being pushed, I picture them being pushed aside and "slowly" try to run away.

I don't want Shyvana to be buffed. She is OK at the moment, and this buff will just make Riot nerf her to an even worse state after.

that's what you assume but it's not true.

About 10 percent of the time, I end up flying over enemies anyways because her ultimate is bugged and doesn't always push them forward

Her ultimate has multiple small hitboxes that apply the CC. Each of these interlocking hits can be escaped using DI.

What is DI?

Directional Influence. It's a competitive Super Smash Bros. term.

Yeah i never understood why she pushes them foward. Already has a hard time sticking to champs in this mobile meta

IMO the best fix for shyvana would be by buffing wits end. Give it an active slow or something. Or even a sort of passive form of cc.

Bring back its old attackspeed as compensation for buff. I would sacrifice some attack speed for an active slow any day.

Instead of a buff to her ult, I would suggest that a buff is made to her *abilities *while in Dragon Form. Maybe Burnout's trail could reduce Attack Speed, or even give her ult a second cast that would do something. What would it do? That's for you to suggest.
