Rank 1 Sylas GuideMatchup Cheatsheet
2
Introduction: Heya, as of writing this I'm rank 1 Sylas world according to deeplol (screenshot at the bottom) though rankings change very often so I'm just gonna run with it for now.
I think my opinion might be valuable when it comes to this champ as I pretty much always blind or pick sylas no matter what and that requires to adapt and make sylas as viable
as I can in a given situation.Though my playstyle might be a little different than most as I almost always go Q max and Electrocute (and First Strike sometimes).		 The order is as following : The runes you should take in those matchups, what max order you should do, what starter item you should take, and any hints to play the matchup. Though some of these are situational in the sense of the enemy rune change, If they have poke runes you should go Dorans Shield instead of told Doran's Ring in that situation instead.

- Sorc shoes are always better unless you're going Conq with W Max.Azir : Electrocute + Inspiration | Q > E > W Max | Doran's Shield
10
- Ignite counters W max very hard, be careful of ignite lethal range.Cassiopeia : First Strike + Resolve | Q > E > W Max | Doran's Shield
11
- Always take TP so you can side lane, Ignite is still viable with electrocute against some melee's but not recommended.Corki : Electrocute + Inspiration | Q > E > W Max | Doran's Ring
12
- If enemy Mid has decent poke, like the rune Aery, go Dorans Shield.Diana : Electrocute + Inspiration | W > E > Q Max | Doran's Ring
13
- While going Electrocute, Scorch secondary is good against most melee's as you can poke them down and Inspiration against most ranged.Ekko : Electrocute + Inspiration | W > E > Q Max | Doran's Ring
14
- Going First Strike means you're handshaking enemy and saying you won't ever kill them before mid-game and good against champs you won't normally kill anyway.Fizz : Electrocute + Inspiration | W > E > Q Max | Doran's Ring
15
- Zhonya's is a crucial item and always should have it in your full build due to Sylas being very vulnerable to CC or bad positioning.Galio : Electrocute + Inspiration | Q > E > W Max | Doran's Ring
16
- Having 2 points in Q is really useful in early game situations and will help your lane considerably a lot, you should aim to have at least 2 points in Q at lvl 4-5 then proceed with W max.Gragas : Electrocute + Inspiration | Q > E > W Max | Doran's Ring
