Scuttle Contest

  • You win scuttle fights through superior sustain from Q and higher base damage output in extended trades.
  • From level 6, avoid fighting Sylas when he has R available to steal yours - you win 1v1s when your R is down and his is on cooldown, as your base kit sustain beats his.

Predicted Jungle Path

  • Sylas will likely full clear and look to path toward scuttles around 3:20, then focus on farming to 6.
  • He typically avoids early skirmishes and prioritizes reaching level 6 for ultimate steals, so expect him to play defensively early.

Invade or Not

  • You should invade his jungle early game before level 6, particularly after your first clear when you're healthy from Q sustain.
  • Target his krugs or gromp around 3:30-4:00 when he's likely doing scuttle, as you win the 1v1 without ultimate availability.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use your R carelessly when Sylas has his available, as he can steal it and use your own berserk form against you.
  • Avoid extended fights in his jungle when he has W available for healing, as the terrain favors his E mobility for escaping unfavorable trades.
