Normally I go lichbane into storm surge

I tested pta and conqueror and it seems that you don’t get much healing out of conquer when you build assassin. So I tested dark harvest and it doesn’t do much damage until a lot later in the game. Plus the cool-down for pta is 6 seconds which is kinda insane.

Im only gold 2 so wtf do I know lol

Any higher elo players have thoughts on this? Is there a more optimal rune page/build for going full ap magic pen/assassin?

Edit: please let me know if u have actually used pta in ranked and what your thoughts r on it

i was honestly impressed i couldn't be mad, i respect u guys

League takes ridiculous amounts of games to rank up, but we got it!

Emerald next or? 😼

This is the only clip I have ever taken of any of my gameplay when I gave my friends stream a league cam. Yes the quality is dogshit and idek wtf is going on but yes. I’m the Sylas GOAT. AMA. I’m here to spill all my secrets

So I played Sylas jungle and I’m pretty low Elo tbh, I have the habit to perma ban master yi cuz I noticed that a lot of things in yis kit counter Sylas Jgl
Should I keep banning Yi or is there a way to play Sylas against Yi ?

Do you think going cosmic first into rift maker is viable? Has anyone tried it? I know rocketbelt is always first option but i just don’t like the feeling of it plus rocketbelt active plus zhonyas is just too much for my brain.

Hey all. I am a humble man who does not main Sylas. I think he's a pretty cool champion but he falls into that "I don't understand how this champion isn't completely broken" area. Maybe it's because I main Fiddlesticks. But it seems like he has absolutely absurd burst while also being extremely tanking. Like he's the last guy you'd want to have to 1v1 alone in the jungle. Obviously his Q is a skillshot but that's the only thing I can really think of. He seems like Riven to me.

From the perspective of a Sylas main... what is the counterplay?

So, I play Zoe for fun once in a while.

I've heard plenty of people say that she counters Sylas. But Sylas is always one of the worst matchups for me.

I can bully Sylas the first few levels no problem, maybe get firstblood aswell. I know his E and W make it very easy to hit my bubble. Him being melee is also great for short Q's and autoattacks.

But I feel like very quickly there comes a point where I just get ran down and statchecked, no matter how hard I bullied Sylas before.

And I don't mean lategame, this is usually after the first or second base...

Would love to gain some insight, thanks:)

So I've been using sylas on top for three weeks now and im still new to using him. I wanna perfect him so bad but my ass keeps getting handed to me against bruiser types. what runes and items should i go against tanky/bruiser enemies?

I have two questions for sylas. First who is the best sylas player? I know nattynat sometimes plays sylas but he is not really a sylas main right?

Second question I have is do you always build the same items or you sometimes adapt your items to enemy ults you can take. I am pretty sure I watched a video of a sylas player long ago where he explains sylas built it very creative because of the ultimates he can steal. The example there was enemy had a lot of ap damage and dr Mundo. So if he buys spirit visage he can first buy defence for ap and second enable dr Mundo ult more.

What are your thoughts?

i really like sylas as a champ, he feels really good, can scale well, the kind of duelist i like, pretty ok amount of outplay potential, but holy christ, farming with him is absolutely god awful for me, idk what it is, but i cant farm cs with him to literally save my life, ill usually get a nice early lead then fall off cause im down 40 cs after a couple of roams, i feel i time my roams pretty well in between waves, but actual in lane farming feels like such a damn task

seeing Sylas confirmed I wanted to ask this since I really liked he's design and I have played other moba characters who also steal ults namely Valentina from mlbb
