Who Wins
- You win trades pre-6 through superior range and burst potential with Q-W combos, but Sylas can match your damage if he lands E and gets in melee range.
- Post-6, you maintain advantage through mobility and range, but his stolen R can create dangerous all-in scenarios where he matches your burst while having more sustain.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern is Q-W-auto-W back to safety, using your range advantage to poke without committing to extended trades.
- Against Sylas specifically, save W return for after he uses E, as his gap-close forces longer trades that favor his sustain and melee damage.
Wave Control
- Push early waves with W to establish priority and roam timing, but transition to freezing or slow pushing once Sylas hits level 6.
- His stolen R combined with jungle ganks becomes extremely dangerous, so controlling minion positioning near your tower reduces his all-in potential.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't use W aggressively without vision or when his E is available, as getting caught in melee range allows him to proc passive multiple times and sustain through your burst.
- Avoid trading when he has multiple passive stacks ready, as his enhanced autos significantly increase his damage output in extended fights.
