Playing as Sylas

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. An auto after each spell

    Weave an auto after each spell: Petricite Burst (passive) turns it into a chain swing around you, with bonus magic damage.

  2. Save Kingslayer for low health

    Save Kingslayer (W) to finish or to save yourself when your health drops: its healing grows with your missing health.

  3. Abscond, then throw your chain

    To engage, cast Abscond (E), then recast within 3.5 seconds: Abduct (E) pulls you to the first enemy hit and knocks them into the air.

  4. Steal the ult that decides the fight

    Cast Hijack (R) on the enemy whose ult can turn a teamfight: you keep a copy of it, cast with your own stats.

Playing against Nunu & Willump

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Change direction against his snowball

    Change direction sharply when Biggest Snowball Ever! (W) comes at you: it moves fast, but he turns slowly while pushing it.

  2. Move away from Willump

    If the Snowball Barrage (E) snowballs slow you, move away from Willump: when the spell ends, he roots slowed enemies close to him.

  3. Leave his blizzard fast

    Get out of Absolute Zero (R) fast, or interrupt it if you have CC: the slow grows stronger, and the explosion hurts more the longer he channels.

  4. Don't leave him alone on an objective

    Don't leave him alone on an objective: Consume (Q) deals true damage to monsters and adds to his Smite to finish the dragon.
