join my discord and send me a DM with your op.gg and maybe I can help once I see what we're working with you're not wrong though, the gains in split 3 have been abysmal and you are in a way being held back by a flawed system on that specific account

no its definitely not okay to be that low, aim for at least 70 cs by 10 minutes if you can, focus less on trading and more on last hitting

because pros are playing worlds on patch 14.18 and practicing the same builds for the sake of competing, they are just used to it cosmic drive was nerfed way more than lichbane in 14.19 and live patch is already14.21. Its good to buy cosmic drive 2nd item if you are running the frontline/engage conqueror page against multiple melee champs if u are electrocute then always go lichbane 2nd item for burst damage, cosmic is useless with that setup

hope not

​@@fightozzznow after I saw it, delete it

no more running down games now!

@@fightozzz if only it would be that easy:D Great information but implementing all the new information into the gameplay is tough

yeah really good question, I've actually experimented with both of those items a lot. I'd say that unending despair and spirit visage are in their current state just overpowered items and need a nerf, but they aren't actually that "efficient" for sylas to use (only your w spells has a bonus hp scaling ratio and the items are tuned around champs who have multiple hp ratios like tanks) my take is, if you want to play the tank sylas build you can... I've had the most success with this variation: rocketbelt > cd boots > cosmic drive > unending despair > spirit visage > riftmaker/jak'sho it works really well if your goal is to play an initiator role, your E is basically up infinitely and there's a lot of deceptive healing. The clear downsides are that you will have 0 ap and 0 magic pen so if the enemy adc or mage mid builds any magic resist you essentially have zero threat on the backline and become a glorified support in fights rather than an actual carry.

no because once stacked (and it stacks very quickly) manaflow will give you flat mana + bonus regen even if your opponent refuses to interact with you, letting you get more roam timers before you go OOM and have to base with presence of mind you actually have to hit them to get any value, so it doesn't really help in lanes where you should be winning and the enemy understands the matchup

noice sylas is definitely the way to go for climbing atm

Yep i played sylas jungle so much as well but he just feels so terrible right now... its really sad. They need to improve his Q dmg to monsters modifier to compensate for the ap ratio nerfs, so his clear isn't so slow. Literally can't keep up with the speed of any normal jungle champ in the state he currently is.

@@fightozzz They've buffed the Q damage to deal 100% damage on jg camps, but you never max Q first in the jungle. They could add a jg modifier to the passive damage, or make W heal on monsters

@@esdraslionwhyte ye passive modifier to jg monsters sounds good, like dianas one

Yeah that matchup is very challenging but the trick is to take her E with your ult, that will reveal her and bind her even when she goes into passive. Laning phase is an absolute nightmare though.

yeh I still go electrocute rocketbelt lichbane most games, unless you are solo frontline/engage for your team and there's a lot of melees on enemy - in that case you can do the rocketbelt into cosmic drive/riftmaker variation with conqueror The biggest difference is you should go Ionian Boots of Lucidity over magic pen shoes after the recent nerfs. Pretty much every game, unless you absolutely need merc treads to survive against double ap mid jg.

yeah im afraid akshan is dead on the current patch... yuntal looks really promising on PBE considering akshan can proc it twice very quickly with his autos, looking forward to it!

awesome viewer.

there's a link in the description to join my community discord, those are pinned on the sylas discussion channel.

oops yeah good eye I think he can really fit in either category, if galio goes electrocute full dmg build its extremely easy. If he goes aftershock tank build then you lose pretty hard early but tank galio falls off hard after 2 items. Its a bit of a skill matchup imo.

thats awesome, thanks for letting me know what worked well for you

thanks for the kind words

hi unfortunately corki is red hot garbage on 14.20 BUT on 14.21 he is getting massive buffs and I'll definitely put an update in my discord corki discussion channel if I feel there's a new build/rune setup that makes him worth playing again

biscuits aren't good, second wind will always provide you more overall hp healing and is way more reliable when you are higher hp. just run green page secondary with second wind overgrowth into bully range mages, its enough to stay alive and farm.

@@fightozzz is that taking into account the 90 max hp biscuit provides?

​@@yuvalval3684 yeh it is just objectively worse, u'll get way more total hp from overgrowth and more healing in lane from second wind. there's no 2nd rune in inspiration that is worthwhile taking thats the main issue

yeh just go practice tool and press e click backwards instantly practice that if u do the chain diagonally then visually it will look even slightly longer low ground/high ground hitboxes being whack is another way to get those crazy long hitbox clips too

gotchu man

league is a never ending journey, improving never stops!

try fimblewinter, its pretty good on top sylas

so happy to hear that.

welcome :)

noice, try yuntal on akshan. does full damage on his E its kinda good

obrigado! I did capoeira for 5 years so brazil is very close to my heart.

yep same man, on new patch rocketbelt > lichbane > deathcap/zhonyas/banshee/void I only go riftmaker if its a really good conqueror game, prolly 80% of the time I take electrocute now

@@fightozzz another build ive been trying is rocketbelt -> deathcap -> lichbane

@@k0mb4t92 i feel like deathcap isnt good 2nd, the gold efficiency is down and its only worthwhile once u have 2 full ap items PLUS dark seal stacks OR 3 full ap items. Especially since rocketbelt only gives 60 ap its not even a real item

glad to hear you got something out of it

I mean on side lane I did 0 damage with 1/2 items ahead and he deal pretty decent dmg, he had mercs, maybe I should have gone mercs too instead of sorc

@@ninkat5441 I think the onus is on you to make something happen early. especially level 2, you need to force trades on him with Q,E and make him choose between levelling cage lvl 2 (which reduces his ability to cs with w from afar). Ur chains are about half his cage cooldown, so you will go in lvl 2 he will use cage and disengage, then you have a full 10 seconds with your second rotation being up to try again Mercs are a pretty gold inefficient item now so I wouldn't build it unless there was a lot of value on top of veigar cage (leona + varus for example) Once veigar gets to 2 items u cant really kill him and he will 1shot you regardless of whether you itemize magic resist, u also cant buffer his cage with your E2 because it will stun you halfway and stop your movement. The only counterplay is to use your E>W> Protobelt combo to try and get past his cage while he puts it up, or get your full damage rotation off, then he cages, and you just run around in it trying to dodge some skillshots. TL;dr snowball early or lose (ignore him later just try to kill his teammates, u cant do anything to him)

@@fightozzz ty so much <3 Are there any matchups with sylas you can outscale or should I try to get snowball always (apart from super opressive laners where sylas can barely survive) Does sylas have decent scaling? Also ty so much for the guide

@@ninkat5441 yeah your scaling pretty much depends on the ultis you can take. if there's an alistar, kayle, ashe etc in the game then you can "outscale" by stealing the right ults lategame. If u have good ults then dont feel pressured to make progress happen early, you can wait for teamfights

glad to hear you profited some lp from it yeh if you struggle with mana you can run manaflow transcendence secondary you can also put 2 or 3 points in q which I personally dont like doing because it changes your trade patterns (q2 becomes integral to land for damage instead of just using it later to chase). Putting points in q increases your waveclear and does not change the manacost. If u stick to my builds and runes then the solution is just: 1) trying to make your passive hit all the minions at once 2) avoid using W if you are maxing it, costs too much mana 3) if you have some AP already then clear the wave by pressing Q on all 6 creeps (wait for it to line up properly, chain hits front 3, chain + explosion hits back 3) then E in the middle of the wave and get double passive. Continue to auto attack the rest, save ur w or use it if you will take a lot of damage. Its always better to clear the wave by doing E1 E2 > Q > auto (wait for cds) > E1 E2. Use E first so it comes off cooldown higher) 2nd rotation of your E will cost less mana than 1 use of W so its better to wait for E cd and use that to finish off the wave a little slower but conserve your mana.

it just got double buffed chief, broken

@@fightozzz you did the tier list 1 month ago chief

sounds like a lot of fun but high elo games are a tight-knit community and everyone knows each other. If I try this in my games I'll get black listed and ran down by some unhappy gamers :( but the real issue with builds like that is you go through huge power troughs on components (for example riftmaker has no synergy with zeal so you are just a useless champ at that spike until navori, riftmaker navori IE you cant kill anyone without penetration etc.)the massive volatility in usefulness at various stages of the game is why I'd avoid building like that.

nah i'd say the best ult is probably kayle, then malphite close second

@@fightozzz Yea but she has it to so we canceled our dmg?

@@fightozzz love your videos tho♥️

@@dragoivanlasic3835 ye I mean whoever uses kayle ult first loses, but she is DPS champ and you are burst so stylistically she should be forced to press it first if you go on her

😎

awesome to hear! he feels even stronger this patch with ludens champs nerfed.

Bruh, I really enjoy grasp tanky Sylas as well, I only play it on for fun modes tho.

grasp just got nerfed so probably not anymore on patch 14.20

@@fightozzz fair, i agree. played a couple sylas games so far on new patch, maybe it's placebo but i definitely notice a negative difference.

hey! max w > e, use your Q to proc his shield before you go for any trades. when you dash forward use E>W and then hold your chain, dont use E2, you need to walk behind him and try to dodge his Q first then reactivate chains. If you land all your spells in this matchup you should always win. Avoid missing chains on voidlings and trading when his shield is up.

yeah I think first strike has been nerfed into the ground and you should avoid using it. stick to electrocute for 1shot playstyle

yeah on 14.19 the best build I found is electrocute stormsurge rush into lichbane or vice versa once 14.20 hits it'll be back to rocketbelt I think, the nerfs are too big for stormsurge

@@fightozzz Thanks so much for the reply, I appreciate it a lot. Great video as well.
