Who Wins
- You dominate levels 1-3 with your range advantage and Q-AA-E burst combos.
- At level 6, you lose all-in potential if Sylas lands his full combo, but you maintain poke advantage and can execute low targets.
How to Trade
- You should poke with Q when Sylas goes for CS, then follow with auto-attack and E for passive proc.
- Always maintain maximum range and use your E to reposition after trading to avoid his retaliation.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain slow pushes to keep the wave in the center, giving you maximum poke opportunities.
- Avoid hard shoving as this allows Sylas to roam freely and removes your range advantage.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You cannot afford to get hit by Sylas E1-E2 combo after level 6 as it guarantees his full rotation.
- Never use your E aggressively for damage when his engage tools are available, as you'll have no escape.
