Sylas's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Petricite Burst (P)

After casting a spell, Sylas stores a charge of Petricite Burst. Sylas's basic attacks will expend a charge and whirl his energized chains around him dealing bonus magic damage to enemies hit. While Sylas has a charge of Petricite Burst, he gains attack speed.

Playing as Sejuani

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Land both Winter's Wrath swings

    Land both Winter's Wrath (W) swings: the second deals most of the damage and slows, and each one applies a Frost stack.

  2. Permafrost at 4 Frost stacks

    Cast Permafrost (E) as soon as your target has 4 Frost stacks: Winter's Wrath (W) and your melee allies' autos apply them.

  3. Shatter your stunned target

    Hit a target you just stunned: Fury of the North (passive) shatters them for heavy magic damage.

  4. Engage with Arctic Assault

    Engage with Arctic Assault (Q): enemies you pass through take a knock-up, and the charge stops on the first champion hit.

  5. Glacial Prison from a distance

    Cast Glacial Prison (R) at their carry from far enough away: past a quarter of its range, the stun lasts longer and a storm slows nearby enemies.

Playing against Sylas

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Keep minions between his chain and you

    Stay behind your minions after his Abscond (E): the Abduct (E) chain pulls him to the first enemy hit, and only that one takes the knock-up.

  2. Don't trust his low health

    Don't go all-in just because his health is low: Kingslayer (W) heals him more as he loses health.

  3. Back off after each of his spells

    Get out of his range as soon as he casts a spell: each spell charges Petricite Burst (passive), and his next auto hits around him with bonus magic damage.

  4. Fight when he can't steal from you

    Take the fight when Hijack (R) is on cooldown: he then can't copy your ult and turn it against your team.
