Shyvana Item Build

TANK LOADOUT · SHYVANA

Shyvana is a melee fighter whose attacks fuel her spells, trimming Twin Bite's cooldown and keeping Burnout going, and Dragon's Descent turns her into a dragon that knocks enemies toward where she lands. The jungle build leans into that attack rhythm with Feral Flare and Frozen Mallet.

This is the primary jungle Shyvana, built around attack speed and on-hit damage. Feral Flare clears camps and grows its on-hit damage with kills, and Burnout (W) burns enemies around her while she attacks. Blade of the Ruined King and Wit's End add on-hit damage, and Frozen Mallet adds a large health pool and slows. Randuin's Omen adds armor and slows attackers.

Tank Shyvana Build

Tank

Burnout does the clearing on this build, so it takes the first maxed ranks and stays lit while Shyvana keeps swinging, since each melee attack stretches it by a second toward its six second ceiling. Feral Flare comes first because its attack speed buys more swings per camp, and every large monster adds a Feral stack to its on-hit damage.

Blade of The Ruined King follows, and its active opens a gank by stealing 30% of a champion's Move Speed for 3 seconds. Frozen Mallet then makes sure that target cannot simply walk off, slowing on every basic attack while its health starts the tank half of the build.

Wit's End stacks Magic Resist with each hit after that, and Randuin's Omen brings the armor and slows whoever keeps attacking her, so the dive survives long enough for Twin Bite, ranked second, to land its double strike.

Bruiser Shyvana Build

Bruiser
This jungle Shyvana builds more defense with Exhaust and Smite.

Feral Flare covers the clear, and Ionic Spark adds attack speed, health and chain lightning. Frozen Mallet adds health and slows, and Frozen Heart adds armor and slows the attack speed of nearby enemies. Runic Bulwark adds an armor and magic resist aura for the team.
