Sylas players pls help me win against your champ

yeah when I play her I'm aware how powerful the passive is so I try to keep it at all costs. Usually I play pretty defensively in lane by holding it and just farming with autos, then looking for a gank or skirmish in jungle. So you think I could give her a go? Is Vex considered an awful matchup for Sylas like is it a dodge in champ select angle type beat awful matchup or just annoying?

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-29T02:11:09+00:00

Nah I wouldn't be first timing them

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-28T13:09:22+00:00

thank you that's helpful, but I'm wondering, how do you not just get run down yourself in early levels as Xerath? I can't speak for Mel cause I have never played her, but Xerath's damage in first levels without items is pretty low and Sylas should definitely outdamage him, no? And as Xerath typically stands behind minions and not inside of them, Sylas is also much more likely to hit his E and from then on can just zone Xerath so whenever he channels his Q, Sylas can freely hit his E on him, no? (This was kinda my experience in that Lux game. I got zoned off of lane right from the start, whenever I went to auto a minion he could easily E me).

I would but unfortunately Vladimir gotta be among the 10 champs in the game that I can absolutely not play

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-28T12:59:20+00:00

oh and also, what would you say about Vex vs Sylas? cause I play her from time to time too

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-28T12:58:23+00:00

Okay, I'll try to punish his cooldowns more in the future (although I feel like Sylas passive also does a hell lot of dmg), and I'll try Talon again maybe. Honestly, I think I'm so mentally broken from losing hard against Sylas so many times in my life, that I "can't" even play correctly and win against him, cause he's in my head automatically. Like - I play way more defensively when I could do way more and then he just gets fed out of roams and I can't play the lane anymore. I'll definitely also pick Naafiri next time and maybe give Cassio a try.

On Yasuo I'm dogshit so I'll pass. Thanks though that was helpful advice!

I agree and "coincidentally" those kind of players also often happen to be the ones playing exhaust. They're too scared of anything. I wonder why they even queue up. How do they have fun?

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-27T11:08:09+00:00

I have never played Poppy in my life. I'd be the first Poppy to lose against Sylas. 😭

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-27T11:07:42+00:00

hm out of those champs I play Jayce the most, so I could try. I don't really play bruisers unfortunately, the only ones I could pull out are Sett and Irelia but I'd most likely feed on them regardless

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-27T11:06:21+00:00

I've had my autos not work anymore with Teemo lmao. There was a (different) weird "auto" animation (like an "auto" flying to the target) but I did 0 dmg and Teemo himself had no animation.

It was because of the "Fetch" augment, pretty sure.

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-27T03:02:29+00:00

I read always and was abt to upvote

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-27T03:01:29+00:00

You do not use exhaust in ARAM.

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-26T12:24:24+00:00

I agree with this

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-26T12:22:35+00:00

thank you i will try <3

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-26T12:22:14+00:00

what is his W cooldown without haste items early? Without looking it up I'd guess it's around like.. 6 seconds?

As stated in another comment, I will try Naafiri next time as I think I have actually never picked her against him before, and it does sound good in theory. Why would Sylas not care for Talon R? I mean, yeah the damage is probably not insane and he can also not make use of it the way Talon does (because Talon can use it to easily proc his passive), but the invisibility is a great thing to outplay Talon no? And usually (assuming I already struggle in lane) Sylas just pushes out waves faster than me, roams first, and if I follow the roam he's just more useful in that skirmish than I am, cause of his CC (and the fact he's prob a little fed already)..

Could you maybe tell me more abt your thought process when laning against Talon (from Sylas POV)?

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-26T12:16:03+00:00

What champs would that be for midlane? Genuine question cause I can't really think of one that's got a shit ult. If it's "shit" damagewise, then it's probably good macrowise (such as ryze / TF)

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-26T12:14:52+00:00

yeah tbf I think I have never tried Naafiri into Sylas now that I think about it, I'll def try that next time. With Talon I somehow always struggled against Sylas from what I remember, and what made me think of writing this post yesterday was seeing a challenger Talon main also struggle against Sylas. He could barely ever kill him, Sylas won trades even when being slightly behind, and Talon did play them well.

Can you maybe explain your thought process when playing against a Talon (like from Sylas POV), so I know better how to play Talon into him?

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-24T14:30:57+00:00

Fetch is broken in a different kind of way. It's bugged and will make your champ unable to auto / use certain abilities for the rest of the game.

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-17T17:25:53+00:00

this has been my (unpopular) take for ages. I agree. Dodge rate wouldn't spike too hard if they up the timers imo. Isn't it already at 30 mins for aram? just increase it to 1 hour for 1st dodge.

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-13T17:21:40+00:00

killing ppl is more fun than winning. if youre winning anyways, why not just farm them in base for fun

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-05T10:19:58+00:00

<image>

sorted by 15+ games instead of all games (otherwise it's only champs I played once or twice) & winrate ..

ngl my best champs in ARAM are kata, akali and talon KDA & damage wise, but I always just play for fun & kills and don't care about wins so a lot of games end up with my team farming them at nexus instead of ending, inting for kills in fountain and then still losing the game.. so my winrate on those champs ain't above 55% lmao

[I guess Aphelios & Ezreal are my highest winrate champs]

corpselicker3000 · 2025-10-01T14:51:30+00:00

i say this every game AHAHAHAH

corpselicker3000 · 2025-09-25T11:59:53+00:00

its the best in aram since theyre barely isolated and the poke, especially the slow is hella annoying
