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 Seraphine

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Double your Surround Sound

    Make Surround Sound (W) your third basic spell: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, and the second, cast while shielded, heals your allies.

  2. Beat Drop on a slowed target

    Cast Beat Drop (E) on enemies that are already slowed: they're rooted, and those already immobilized are stunned.

  3. Finish with High Note

    Save High Note (Q) for a wounded target: its damage grows with the health they've lost.

  4. Send Encore through an ally

    Cast Encore (R) through an ally toward the enemies: each champion hit, allies included, extends the spell's range.

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.
