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 Udyr

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after his stun

    Once Blazing Stampede (E) has stunned you, take your trade: he can't stun you again for a while.

  2. No CC while he's awakened

    If you have CC, don't use it when he awakens Blazing Stampede (E): he's immune to immobilizing effects then. Wait for the effect to end.

  3. Stay away from his storm

    Keep your distance from Wingborne Storm (R): it damages and slows nearby enemies every second, and once awakened, it follows the last enemy he hit.
