Sylas Matchups Overview
Sylas General information
Sylas tips and tricks
Think twice before stealing somebodies Ultimate. As Sylas’ Ultimate R can be game-changing, make sure you take the most impactful enemy Ultimate for late game team fights.
When ganking, use your E as close as you can to the enemy so it’s harder for them to dodge the CC and escape the gank.
Weave in auto attacks whenever you use your abilities to help clear the jungle more effectively. Specifically, make sure your auto-attack before reactivating your E.
