Scuttle Contest

At level 3, you win the scuttle fight decisively due to your Q providing massive sustain and your W's slow making it nearly impossible for Shyvana to disengage safely; she has no reliable way to burst you down before you heal back up.
From level 6, you can force 1v1s by landing your W snowball to interrupt her E momentum, then using Q to sustain through her damage while she lacks the burst to kill you before you chunk her down.

Shyvana almost always runs a full clear starting red or blue side, prioritizing raptors and krugs to stack her passive quickly, then rushing to scuttle; she will rarely invade early because she needs camp stacks for her R.
Expect her to mirror your pathing on the opposite side of the map and contest objectives only once she has her R available.

You should invade Shyvana at her second buff around 3:15-3:30 when she is between camps and low on health from clearing; target her red or blue buff depending on her starting side, as she has no strong duel tools at that point without her passive stacks built up.
Your Q sustain and W slow make it very hard for her to escape or fight back efficiently at this stage.

Do not let Shyvana free-farm to her R without contesting her, because once she has R she becomes significantly harder to kill and can threaten dragon; failing to apply early pressure allows her to snowball objectives passively through her passive's bonus damage to dragons, which is her primary win condition and not something you can easily counter late.
