Guide to Synergizing Rek'Sai and Shyvana

Tips for Playing as Rek'Sai with Shyvana

Keeping tunnels spread out across the map will ensure you have choices when you want to cast Void Rush.

Cast Burrow before travelling around the map to take advantage of the increased Move Speed and the safety provided by Tremor Sense.

Tremor Sense can warn you of enemies closing in, and is particularly useful when entering enemy territory.

Advice to Understand How Shyvana Will Play

It can be valuable to purchase one of the items that can slow enemies: Frozen Mallet, Dead Man's Plate, or Entropy.

Shyvana's abilities all benefit from attacking units. As a result, Attack Speed items are more valuable on her than most champions.

Burnout is an ideal choice for jungling. Monsters will be hit by the full duration, and the speed boost improves her ganking potential.

Flame Breath is great to level-up against difficult lane opponents.
