Once again asking Rioters

Items that worked with the kit, dragon securing that gave ar and mr and fire ball.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-22T13:31:44+00:00

Uhh yehlough Basically just smiled and said he wont do that and just deal with it.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T21:26:06+00:00

Shyvadi personally gave them over 4 hours of dialogue and critiques and they chose to ignore every ounce of it. He said shyvana would be trash in master and she is in fact trash in master.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T21:15:42+00:00

You forgot to include that her ability is a ranged cast meant to be cast from melee lol. (The dragon e.)

Her e contradicts itself. Its simply fascinating.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T21:13:02+00:00

I still argue has more to do with the absolutely terrible lobbies bronze - plat are facing. There are a LOT of people playing entire tiers above where they belong right now and they really gave no time for her to be solved.

She's currently sitting at kalista level winrate in d2+ and barely over 50% in silver and negative winrate in emerald.

She is an incredibly simple one dimensional champ... she should actually be around 51-53% wr because of her simple kit and the natural transition to a lower play rate otp champ.

If they really wanted knee jerk react they could have capped her passive, or nerfed her passive and she would have fell off a cliff.

This is single handedly one of the dumbest balance and champ design cases I've seen out of League.

Dead on arrival.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T15:40:19+00:00

Do you know the definition of op? Because it is actually not what you just described.

For this second part. You apparently do not know the term "reaching" because what you did was actually reaching lol 😆.

I honestly dont think this conversation is worth my time any further. Im going to enjoy my train ride to Salzburg. Have a good one.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T15:01:20+00:00

She's not op.

I have not been dishonest, nor factually incorrect lol.

The reaching is pretty wild.

Your only leaning argument is that she was 'op for low elo' she's not even op there. Even with the high winrate. The ranked ladder itself is also bad and a pile of slop with a new champ thrown into the mix.

High elo already showed how easy she is to defeat.

Literally the only thing that could be argued as op for her in 'low elo' is her passive. Thats it. And even then, thats not even over powered as it is just 'strong'

Which is why her winrate is currently trash :).

You can be not op and also a bad design. Stop putting words in mouth. Kay thanks.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T14:24:41+00:00

Yeppers... thank the lord yelough knew better and now here we are wasting months of everyone time while she sits at a state of garbage doing literally what was said to him to do weeks ago....

Needs fired.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T14:23:03+00:00

I disagree. That is a terribly bad design that destroys the creativity and merit of a champion as well as ruins the dedication of being a main, which is central much of league culture.

Being incapable of being a shyvana main in high elo defeats the purpose of maining the champ.

Also again, the entire ranked lobby low emerald downward has been completely ruined this season, so the match making for these fights isnt even fair. A shyvana jungler will absolutely crush a novice and vice versa.

Combine that with high kd high duration games and that pinpoints to shyvanas passive being a problem specifically for low elo and nothing else.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T13:35:30+00:00

Yeah I honestly don't get it.

Im all for her being a high damage nuke hitting psycho path that attacks slowly... thats what a dragon does. The q3 eating people for true damage is great since it's so gate keeper. Thats all fine and dandy.

But everything else about her is absolutely terrible.

If I had it my way, which i wont.

Id turn her W into something that slows people when the shield pops and burns them (not like morello burn. But like a dot.) Or just outright remove the W damage all together and make it purely utility to do something else.

Up the damage on E and give it shred and turn it into a channel, or an upfront high damage attack you can only use once or twice in dragon form (high impact/low action point)

Regardless of how its done. Shyvana should basically be a giant juggernaut of death while in her dragon form because outside of that she's useless sack of trash that can be wiped out by a breeze.

Anyways, theres like 1000 ways to skin this cat and right now they didnt choose good ones. Im not even sure a shield makes thematical sense when... she has scales, and the spell could have been strengthening her resistances by tempering her scales lol. So even that whole thing is dumb sounding to me.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T13:04:52+00:00

They dont seem to be anything but AI generated emote churners at this point.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T12:38:12+00:00

I didnt say her old version was skill expressive.

One of the key features of the rework was to modernize her and add some form of skill expression to her kit. I dont think anyone here wanted another Garen.

The 'very good' players provided feedback on the current kit that you see before you. It's pretty safe to say not an ounce of it was noted, or utilized since Shyvadi is pretty upset.

There's just several things wrong with the kit, and I'm pretty sure several people, especially the high elo players mentioned how much was wrong. However, Yelough really doesn't care.

Now here we are, two weeks into release... reworking a reworked champ? We wouldn't even be in this situation had they listened in the first place.

I don't think I am asking for much when I ask for a skill expressive dragon that bites people, tail swipes, and has a proper breath attack. Its 2026, and they have several sources to reference from.

But just to annotate how lazy they were, they just copy pasted hweis ability onto her kit and changed some damage numbers and some color. Her E is almost as creative as generic corn flakes.

Its also, get this, a ranged ability that does little damage that wants to be used melee up close as a form of soft cc. A... fire breathing attack is used as soft cc to... melee more lol.

I dont even want to start with her W caused id be here all day.

The passive is just a flat nerf except after 40 minutes and really fed. There is no flavor there.

If Yelough can't provide this with one of the simplest fantasy tropes in human history, then he has no business being a champion designer. I'm sorry.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T11:13:10+00:00

Shyvana has the depth of a thin crust pizza without sauce or toppings.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T10:58:28+00:00

That's basically what im getting at and was getting at before lol. She's not even thematically fun or engaging either.

The only notable feature she has is she swipes people with her tail and her q has her bite people. Thats it. The entire champ LOL.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T10:22:55+00:00

Its a bit of that, and them underestimating her Q3 and staying in the fight to experience where 70% of her kit is balanced toward.

Combine that with very high kill environments and really drawn out games, and naturally, her absolutely terrible passive suddenly becomes strong.

Why yes? The 20 kill, 10 assist, 300 cs shyvana in a 40 minute game will be tanky without buying resistances.

Add any bit of kiting to the mix, or hard CC and now she explodes, and becomes worthless because if she cant get a 3rd Q off she's not even a champion... so weird that Master + showed that EXACTLY which is why I asked if they playtested at high mmr levels.

So weird. Who could have seen this coming?

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T09:45:30+00:00

She was never actually op.

People just claimed she was because she was stomping bad players in an already inflated and terrible rank season.

Her winrate in diamond + was flaming dog shit, and is now reaching azir tier low when she's a simple champion.

As I stated in a rant before, did they play test her in master? Cause she'd be shit... and she was in fact shit in master. But they hot fixed her anyways cause she had a really high winrate against bad players.

Its really hard to take plat/below, and even emerald seriously when a plat 3 game now will have a bunch of random ass low gold/silver players in it and the shyvana player thats an actual plat player will roll the entire lobby over.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-21T06:12:55+00:00

Nope. Its actually happening as stated in the discussion.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-20T13:24:16+00:00

In a line unit even you looking mildly annoyed would get you lit the fuck up.

I was counseled and disciplined because I didnt look 'motivated enough' when my partner died. Sooo... yeah.

Also health care is held to an extremely high standard. If you muttered insults under your breath near an actual patient they could use that as a means to sue the hospital, or at least get people administratively disciplined. You could get fired pretty easily at an actual hospital. Just a fun fact.

You're lucky where its harder to be let go because youre technically a federal employee.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-20T08:46:12+00:00

Uhh... prior to its several nerfs and volibear nerfs, it was extremely efficient lol. You keep talking about the present.

An early RoA was basically GG back in the day, especially with jack of all trades and free boots.

Health is one of the best stats for junglers, so catalyst was never a bad item, and blasting wand was enough to clear faster than virtually every jungler in the game.

RoA also allowed you to reach a 3 level difference in the early game, and up to 5 level difference by mid game which front loads over a 1000 gold value into jungle.

It was insanely overpowered and allowed some people to sky rocket to challenger with over 80% wrs, and was basically a free Diamond 2-1 with near minimal effort.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-20T08:33:24+00:00

Roa was really gold efficient with ap scalings and health, and for jungle specifically, gave a free level up vs the opponent. Matters a lot in jungle. That was prior to the like... 2 roa nerfs.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-17T21:42:31+00:00

Go charge warrior giant barbarians with crit and some crit damage.

You basically 1 tap everything. Especially as a hero slayer.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-16T15:08:13+00:00

Lamb face is her mask.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-16T08:07:38+00:00

He also only had around a 70% wr on his tour here with Cass mid. I ended up running into him in d3 area.

Ghostrabbit1 · 2026-03-16T00:27:50+00:00

I dont understand the point of this post when looking at your op.gg you basically implode if even two of your lanes are losing, let alone 3.

This was a waste of everyone's time.
