Guide to Playing with Shyvana

  • Dragon's Descent is a must when initiating team fights. Make sure you have 100 fury to activate it and turn into dragon form.
  • Shyvana dishes out a ton of damage but needs CC from allies to land everything.
  • You can also purchase items that slow enemies so that you can land your abilities.
