Tips Against Sylas in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
ludenbergangel says “50/50 matchup, whoever gets ahead wins. Use W dash to dodge his E2 chains. A neat detail to know is that if he copies your R and lands it, he has to use his E to cancel the frenzy. Antiheal is useful”

Low-Elo Stomper Briar (Crit and Bruiser) [All threats summaries and general tips]

HabaneroQQ says “Sylas is next to Lillia my and Shaco worst nightmare. LOTS OF dmg, mobility makes him really hard matchup if played well. He's not as bad as Lillia, you can outsmart him but still be cation as he can match IT wich sheer power”
0
Real_Zefath says “Sylas deal's so much AOE damage in his kit that it's very easy to make the clone explode on him.
On top of that, he also has a dash on his E making it easy to bait him into boxes.”
0
EddeEken says “Respect his early skirmish power and don’t let him steal your ult in teamfights”
1
Arctic Arrow says “Sylas Jungle can’t clear efficiently and relies on early ganks to stay relevant. His first path is always three camps into a forced gank, because his full clear is too slow and leaves him low HP. If you match or punish that first move, the game is instantly yours — he never recovers tempo.
🧠 Gameplan Summary
✅ Ward and track early — expect 3-camp gank or invade at 2:30.
✅ Mirror his path and punish his first failed gank; he’ll be useless after.
✅ Fight him early — you outstat and outclear him easily.
⚠️ If he steals your R later, just wait it out; he can’t survive your burst.
✅ Once you get tempo lead, invade freely — Sylas Jungle can’t play from behind.”

Judgementlol says “after jungle buffs he's pretty strong because his build involves hextech rocketbelt and this item just works good with sylas you will always have troubles fighting him with lichbane vs rocketbelt”

LeBoof says “Depends on if your team feeds him, as long as you get your items you can still fight him, but only with your ult.”

raphnalin says “Invade early, build MR, and he won't do anything against... our clear is better, our 1v1 is better...”

Crow7420 says “Dead champ in the Jungle, however he is incredibly difficult to gank early on due to his sticking power. Would advise to avoid until getting your form.”

HIKOL says “Can steal your ultimate to push lanes(double edged sword)”

kittygore says “He has very weak early so always Invade and Countergank. Cleanse his stun and use Bola for his dashes.”

gnarz says “Really easy matchup for you, if he is picked in jungle, and not on midlane.”
0
huncho1v9 says “Easy matchup. Lots of outplay potential with your E and W. Sylas might look for a level 3 invade, but it’s very easy for you to outplay. Sylas is a jungler that relies on snowballing heavily, if he doesn’t get a successful early gank off, you automatically have a level lead + cs lead against him and can run him down.”
0
Foxirion says “Sylas can be a moderate threat to Viego. His ability to steal Viego’s ultimate and his healing from his W can make him a tough opponent”
0
huncho1v9 says “- Easy/Annoying matchup. This matchup can be super easy, or annoying if he gets ahead. Sylas can’t match your clear at all so he’s gonna look for early ganks. If he can’t get any early ganks off, you automatically have a big lead over him. If your laners don’t respect his early ganks this matchup can actually be hard if he gets kills, because you have to respect his early game damage/burst. Sylas has a level 3 cross map invade window, but it’s rare for sylas to go for invade rather than gank. Conq is favoured in this matchup.”
0
lanefox says “Very strong duels and burst. Stealing the enemy ult means he can pull out some unexpected solutions if you're not paying attention to the chat feed. Most of the time, you have to whiff some abilities in order to win. Unlikely to be an even fight.”
0
youenn says “Very squishie , he d'ont have a good first clear jgl just invade him early game .”
0
Mignognium says “Le personnage est devenu ok en Jgl avec le patch et le nouvel item mage. Après Sylas reste ok pour Viego car facilement anticipable en fitgh. Attention tout de même Sylas reste un champion impossible à 1v1 si il prend une bonne action dans la partit. Il faut soit vous prendre les bonnes opportunités soit lui empêcher de les avoir. ”

X3mHills says “Consider buying Banshee's Veil, Force of Nature, Zhonya's Hourglass, and Mercury's Treads to protect against him. Focus on farming and counter-ganking, and avoid early fights with him.”

MhmYepSope says “Very weak early game so it's easy to invade him. You beat him 1v1. Can use your Root to prevent his E or W. ”

Pro8l3m says “dont let him scale and u should be fine but watchout bc he can take your R and beat you easily with his burst and healing”
0
jajkopajko says “Annoying matchup but not that hard, you have mutch better clear and will outscale him nicely. He will also gank a lot early and you cant do much about it, dont let it bother you. In 1v1 dodge his chains and you should be fine.”
0
basrty1p says “Press E when he tries to dash to you, and he'll be useless. Buy Anti-Heal to deny his sustain. You can use your minion to block his E. In mid-game, buy Banshee and you can fight him every time you want. Oh, beware about his R what ult he holds in that time. If you play as a mid-lane, pick ignite against him.”
0
garbocan says “Sylas is a melee mid laner who likes taking trades in lane. Pretty much all of his trades start with his E1, so if you can gank right after he dashes he's an easy kill.
Sylas is extremely vulnerable to Ivern's E slow, since he doesn't have any good ways to avoid it. If he Ws a shielded target and immediately E1s away, he still won't be out of range of the slow.
If he steals your ult, his Daisy is a lot less useful than yours since his can't be shielded. Sylas players also usually struggle with properly controlling her which is pretty funny to watch.”
0
EvoTraX says “
Fast stun and with quick damage champions like sylas or renekton sometimes might be a little bit problem but not so much”
0
PrestigeGalaxy says “Sylas can steal your R to gank other lanes. He also has strong 1v1 potential because of his W healing and his E. ”
0
Zero macro says “Briar has a very easy time against Sylas, due to her better statcheck than Sylas —> Sylas has a strong burst trade kit that has a lot of healing on low hp on W, however he lacks consistent stat check during an entire fight. Thereby Briar will maintain Gap Closer really easily as well.
Briar has a stronger jungle clear than Sylas during the entire game, Sylas his first clear is very weak and abuse-able.
Sylas R steal can make a difference in this matchup, and should be looked at adaptively, however Sylas with Briar R is not that strong —> Sylas can stop stolen Briar R endless Berserking with his own E.

Valkidol says “Will oneshot you with a lead. You win in extended fights, but the fights wont be extended if he is up 5 kills. Try to go for counterganks.”

SYROBE says “With full crit Briar, sylas can easily burst you when he gets 2/3 items, he can also use briars ult better than her as it has high AP scaling too.”

Coccaa says “As usual save pillar until after he uses his E. If he steals your ult, use your ult after his. You will steal more stats from him and therefore gain more and he will have none.”

MusicJG says “Will look to cheese ganks.
He can't fullclear, if you ward for your team and tell them to respect you outfarm him and he's useless.”

Zero macro says “Sylas has a really poor clearing speed compared to Zed. Thereby Shred Zed will be stronger than Sylas at any point in the game. Make sure to dodge Sylas 2de E early on to win fights.”
0
metalhydra273 says “Sylas sits on you for a long time. It's very hard to kill him without a pick opportunity with your cc, and his sustain lets him win 1v1s often. Did I mention he uses your ult better than you due to his mobility? Not a fun head to head for you, but definitely one for him, and that's no good.”

SunLongGod says “The gank potential of Sylas is high, you should either look for counter gank or invade to snowball”

MrFerrot says “A good Sylas will own you. He will one-shot you, use your ult against your team, and never die to you. don't feed him, make teammates fight him, kill his team and win through numbers. Outscale to win.”

Apari1010 says “This champ is just stupid broken. he beats you early, mid and late. His ganks are better than you. His teamfights are better than you. This champ is just better than you. Play safe, gank opposite side of the map to him and if you get a lead you can at least exert more pressure in teamfights than he can, assuming one of your teammates doesn't have an extremely good ult he can steal. He’s got a very unhealthy and slow clear, this is very abuseable.”

BradJr says “Skill matchup. Your E is your best friend. Both of you can almost use your full combo by the time CC ends, so I guess just dodge E? (clone rating 7/10)”
0
VrNtv says “Be careful with trying to fight him. He can steal your ult and use it on you or your team.”
0
Borinn says “His clear speed sucks so try to catch him in the jungle as he will have low health trying to kill camps. You can 1v1 him early and mid game but late game he can kill you 1v1. Your ultimate is very op so he will steal it whenever his r is up try not to group together with your team.
You can go either AD or tank.”

Virizion says “People like playing this champ in higher elo so people in plat and below think they can aswell. Invade after 3 camps and he is a free kill and snowball from there.”

Narcissisticdude says “Sylas is a pretty coin-flippy match up, as he can't really clear his jungle early on so it's pretty obvious he will gank level 2 or 3.
Mechanical Tips:
1. Block his chain with his W.
2. Attack ping him if he steals your R, the ping will remain after the R finishes the invulnerable part and you will tell them apart.
3. Honestly you CAN fight him but be aware if you are behind, he will just one tap you unless you hard outplay you.
Non-Mechanical tips:
1. If he ganks level 2 --> run at him and kill him, you will hopefully be level 3.
If he ganks level 3 --> Clear his opposite jungle and match his next gank, he is very similar to Elise in this regard !”

Squ1dM0n says “Sylas's Scaling is so good. he'll just try to gank as many times as possible so just try to deny kills. try to end as soon as possible before sylas out scales you”

Carbear51 says “This man is simply built different, and while he cant get nearly as much out of your ult as you can, you absolute chad, he is still annoying to have to fight or gank.”

Kocykek says “Sylas may have the damage in this meta but against you he has a problem. You block his dashes with Steadfast Presence and easily outdamage him. If you get Divine fast you easily win.”

checca says “One of my favorite matchups in mid lane to play against is Sylas versus Zac. I've played against some of the best players in North America and they have picked this matchup, which is completely reliant on skill. As of 12.23, I think Zac is slightly better because of the high % healing on blobs post-level 6. Sylas can cancel your E with his E, but this won't typically be a problem. Furthermore, Sylas can do nothing with your R as he can't cast any abilities while it is active. Post-level 11, you should win against Sylas.”
0
Kindredgarten says “Jungle Sylas is terrible after nerfs, free win just invade him. Only thing to worry about is him taking your ultimate but he will probably not know how to use it as well as you.”
0
Moonkie says “Sylas is a tough matchup as he enjoys the aggressive playstyle of Maokai early by winning early 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3. Him being able to steal your ultimate is rough but by playing around your saplings and getting mercs you can play around him. (This is my ban currently)”

Davecraft16 says “His clear is pretty bad so he will try to gank a lot. While he clears he will be low on health, perma invade and countergank him. If he stays behind he will become useless”

Voidling13 says “Sylas can be a dangerous champion to face because he can steal your ult and stun you and the person you are with that is dealing the damage. During this time it is easy to kill the both of you.”

Atemporal says “Neste confronto você ganha muito difícil do nível 1-4. Nível 1 se Sylas usar sua habilidade, geralmente Q ou E, você pode subir de nível seu E e pular nele. , seu hp base está entre os mais baixos de todos
midlaners. Sylas também tem grandes problemas de mana no início, não tenha medo de negociar permanentemente com ele durante os primeiros níveis. O E dele tem um CD de 14 segundos no nível 1, então sempre que ele usar você pode dar um E nele duas vezes antes de voltar. Você
geralmente querem procurar uma morte solo em Sylas durante os primeiros níveis. Como Sylas tem estatísticas de base muito baixas, não tenha medo de lutar por longas lutas contra ele se ele jogar todos os seus cooldowns. Após o nível 6, a pista se torna mais difícil. No entanto Ekko
ainda tem o empurrão mais forte, então comece a empurrar as ondas se o Sylas permitir. Bons jogadores Sylas serão agressivos quando souberem que podem vencê-lo, então eles não deixarão você empurrar as ondas tão facilmente, mas contra a maioria dos jogadores funcionará.
Sempre que Sylas roubar sua ult, não lute com ele. Tente o seu melhor para esperar. Sylas será 1v1 invencível quando ele tiver Ekko R. Espere ele acabar, então lute com ele. Você vai vencê-lo se tiver vantagem ult.
Ekko geralmente não pode vencer Sylas após o nível 5 e depois por um tempo por causa de como o W de Sylas contraria os padrões de negociação de Ekko. Mas depois de um tempo a cura do W de Sylas se torna cada vez menos significativa porque você acaba tendo muito dano
em Eko. Normalmente, quando você tem Protobelt e Nashor's Tooth, você pode começar a derrotar Sylas. Depois de 3 itens você vai demolir totalmente Sylas. A menos que ele tenha empilhado uma tonelada
de Magic Resist, você o explodirá facilmente. Sente-se em Fog of War e espere que ele use habilidades na onda. Se o E dele estiver baixo, você pode facilmente pousar um W enquanto ele está limpando as ondas. Afastar-se e deixar sua ignição/retorno Q acabar com ele pode ser inteligente para
negue-o de roubar sua ult se ele ainda não o fez. Você pode evitar o roubo dele do seu R cronometrando o seu R (use R logo antes que o roubo da cadeia R dele atinja você). No momento eu permaban Sylas sobre Kassadin porque Sylas é tão popular.
(cerca de 15% pickrate vs 4% pickrate de Kassadin) Sylas é um banimento extremamente valioso.”

MaximusWillCarry says “The ult he gets from you is so much worse because he cant Zac W while doing it which is where most of the damage comes from. Perma CC him so he cant W and he will break his keyboard over his knee.”

Hazardist says “Sylas has strong burst but if you can survive it, you can easily duel him without fear. Focus him down so he can't survive long enough to do more than one spell rotation, and by all means you should buy any form of Grievous Wounds.”
0
Xelikari says “I highly recommend Doran’s Ring + Q start here, he doesn’t have anything level 1 that can outdamage a full Flamespitter but try to be careful incase he started E. Push for 2 and pressure him when he walks up, the only thing that will lose you this matchup is getting hit by a full combo at any point in time. Also try not to take short trades with him multiple times when he’s low or his W will just heal him for a ton every time.
Comet is nice for additional lane pressure, otherwise go Electrocute and look to roam. I would delay your mythic and pick up Morello’s first, if he’s good he steals your ultimate and roams post-6, but he’s probably bad at landing it so don’t worry too much. I roam a lot in this matchup after level 6 but you can stay and fight him too, just make sure again to never be hit by a full combo, pressure him when you have a cooldown advantage and you should be fine. ”

Simple Shawn says “[TL;DR - GANK WHEN USED E1. CARE HIS R, AN ULT LIKE TRUNDLE IS DEADLY FOR YOU. YOU BEAT HIM IN A 1v1 AFTER 2 ITEMS.]
[Sylas is counted as a mage champion, but he relates more on AA'ing with his passive than on landing skillshots. So, Riot's giving him more damage and tankiness for that. He hasn't a lot of evades but he can pretty easily get out of combat if he takes your ult, and his E2 cancels your Q, make sure to W then spam E if he tries to engage you. Even though he deals a lot of damage, some of it are from AAs and his passive's effect on them, so you also deal damage to him, and you have antiheal to counter his W, so you're not that bad with Thornmail only.]

XxDarkMEGAxX says “Early game, you are not winning. SYlas has a faster cooldown than your Q and he also has lifesteal. Be careful until around level 6, your ult and all your other moves should be able to kill him if he isn't fed. Also, Sylas doesn't bounce when he uses your ult, so be careful if he steals it, pay attention to the sound and the damage you take.”

Soulreaperjin says “Don't try to pick a fight on him unless you have a level advantage to help you out, but otherwise he can just steal your R and spam E on you. Alternatively wait for team mate to help you out.”

Suseri says “You can dodge alot of his abilities and you should always win after 1 or 2 items. Try to be consistent and dont let him heal so either go for all ins or leave him be.”

manco1 says “Sylas has been nerfed plenty of times, but his early game is still strong. Avoid 1v1ing but you can work around him by farming and ganking.”
0
metalhydra273 says “Just in case the jungle variant returns to the meta at some point, but regardless Sylas is an absolute pain. If your ult doesn't get him killed, expect him to recover about half the health he lost from it immediately. Sylas players are delighted to play against Skarner no matter if he's lane or jungle. He's a problem. Pick him off before he uses your ult on one of your teammates. His kit synergizes way better with it and he can gapclose and kidnap without even needing flash (though he can also utilize the flash ult combo). If you kill him off early you'll save you and your team a lot of headache because he can heal off most of the damage you'd be able to do yourself.”

Ahmad791 says “Stealing your ult and using it on you can be real bad for your team
worth the ban”

theceasrsalad says “has a really bad clear early so do your best to cheese him and starve him of resources and he can't do anything”

liserith says “His clear is weak, his ganking is pretty weak, and his early game dueling is laughable. As long as he doesn't somehow get super fed, you will have NO problem with him. ”
0
Gumipapucs says “If you dodge his chains he's pretty much dead all the time (well, he can steal your ult, which we know what it does). If he hits you with his chains you are most likely in deep doodoo.
Chains aside, pretty even matchup.”

chevy the sloot says “Free match up. He can't farm his own jungle and as long as he doesn't cheese ganks you're fine. You should usually be 2 levels ahead unless he leeches exp. ”

Shroomen Rider says “If you get hooked its bad news. Otherwise you might be able to 1v1, and can certainly gank him. ”
0
PsiGuard says “This champ kinda sucks as a jungler right now, so he's pretty easy to fight. You can outfarm and outduel him early. If you're paying attention, you can block his attempt to steal your R and put his R on cooldown. If you're worried about him getting strong mid-game, buy Executioner's Calling to mitigate his W healing.”

Forazz says “Since Sylas jungle isn't that good right now, he won't be a big deal. ”

Hidon1 says “The champ does not work in the jungle that well anymore. This is one of the match ups where you can out pace him and be 2-3 levels lead. You have a way faster jungle clear and you can become a strong tank in the later parts of the game. ”

TheMrDarkness says “his W heal is so op, after your mythic item rush executioner's and them u can try to invade him
because his ult is useless”
0
Karthus man says “Sylas can do a lot of damage, and heal a lot. He will mainly just farm and gank a lot. You should just farm and try to counter gank him. Get grievous wounds to counter his healing and get a banshees veil if he is fead, and you should be fine.”

KevinThyAsian says “He can't clear for shit. He's only good if he manages to get a lucky gank. Most games he kinda just dies more to his jg camps than to champs. Maybe after jg item changes he's better but i havent tried him or vs'ed him yet”

BoyWonder00 says “As a note: Most even threats depend on how you use your W and if they CC you out of it. Majour and above either outscale you or have the ability to shut you down early game.
Still can jungle, but is not good at it. He has a slow and unhealthy clear and doesn't scale as hard as you do. He does have CC to stop you W, and he can steal your ultimate. You beat him 1v1.”

ACE4291 says “can steal your ult but you out jungle him just don't 1v1 and buy anti heal”
0
metalhydra273 says “It's disgusting how much better Sylas is at using your ult than you are. He can also infinitely heal off you as you usually won't have the damage to fight off his 1/3 hp heals. May have to run execs just to deal with him. Ult him if possible and save your team the effort.”
0
Aas112mm says “If he go mid you'd probbaly do fine, but if he goes jungle he will bully and DEMOLISH you early game, you cant out damage him because of his healing, he can gank better than you and you wont be able to win 1v1 against him in any stages of the film.”

ChaoticClockwork says “His clear is weak, his ganks are weak, and if you bully him early he won't be in the game.”

PsiGuard says “This champ is weak from behind as a jungler which usually means you can snowball the early game for free. If he somehow does get strong, make sure you or your teammates get healing reduction.”

Jogress says “Sylas is kinda an assasin. Also, he can make good use of Lillia's R.
I seen this matchup only once - when i countered enemy Lillia by Sylas. Was an easy game, but i can't say that Lillia played well, so... An even matchup for now
I may note: Sylas has extremely bad first clear. But good dueling power. Take that into account”
0
AWierdShoe says “Invade his opposite side. Sylas has the unhealthiest clear out of all jungle champs in the game. If you keep on invading him when he's low he will never scale and you will keep outdueling him. Make sure to avoid his Q and his second E with your E, and be careful if he steals your ultimate to try and finish you off. Rush Executioner's Calling to really throw him off and deny his healing.”
0
DarkArbalist613 says “If you dodge his Abilities you win any fight, but he scales really hard so try to kill him early on so he cant snowball any harder than you can. This matchup is weird because depending on who you have on your team it can be harder or easier. If he has a Malphite ult your Screwed, but if he has like a Soraka ult or something you win.”
0
Comrade Eshgrim says “His healing is ridiculous and he will prevent you from killing him by stealing your ult. You can invade him early on with red buff cheese but best not to tickle him when he has built items.”
0
Kamisore says “You can look for an early invade since his first clear puts him at really low health, otherwise look for counterganks in lanes where he has no good ults to steal. Otherwise you cna look for crossmap plays.”
0
Luzyni says “MOTHERFUCKER, you cant do anything in late game against him, so what happens in early game? your best opportunity to kill him is actually lvl 5 or lvl 7,8 without R, why without R? because Sylas players love your R, they wish your R, and with your R, this is like a match up with ekko but more difficult, because he can cc, tons of damage, heal, and with you R he will heal more. if he gets spiritual apprentice, you DO NO DAMAGE 4.0”

Sorrowful Prince says “First clear is as bad as yours and he is reliant on cheese ganks. Camille wins 1v1 so you can go for an early invade. If you countergank him he's doomed. Stay on the side of the map where he is and abuse him. ”

Ehxakt says “Dont fight him. Dont focus him. You can chain cc him if needed.”

Mowser says “Sylas is a huge annoyance to fight, if he is fed he will shred you and be unkillable due to his insanely strong heal which he will use to heal all of your burst and leave you with nothing. late game he will steal your ult and win teamfights with it. very big issue but not as bad as yasuo.”

SR Trogo says “He can cancel your R, but what is worse is that he can steal it and deal tons of damage, specially because he builds full ap and you know how good is that scaling.

steamsy16 says “Sylas can CC you to the ground while dealing tons of damage at the same time, but your movement speed with Hec can dodge some abilities.”

quinceeeee says “People usually think that Sylas is nerfed, but HE IS NOT. His W is now even stronger than before, and his passive deals more damage to a single target, which means he is stronger in soloing. Try to call for 2v1 if he tries to steal your Krabs or Chomp.”

MannerlessNG says “Easy.
Use your W to dodge his attack and then just kick his ass, you deal way more damage and sustain through anything he does.
He's an issue only if he's fed or you tank a dumb engage.
If for some ungodly reason he's jungling, absolutely spam invade him whenever you can for easy meals.
It's extremely easy to build a huge lead against him and remove him from the game entirely.”

Tips Against Sylas in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
kekseres says “Hard matchup. Pref AD kata against him since you lack DPS with AP.
You lose everytrade but if he E's first you can all in him.
I like to go conqueror with boneplating and flat hp with ignite to win the early all ins.
If he goes lvl1 on you with E1 in the wave, level up E as Kata and do AA->E->AA while dodging his E2.”
0
AntiMetaFae says “Sylas is a melee champion, making him easy to abuse. But his W gives him enough sustain to survive a trade, so always make sure to flank him. Remember to build Grievous Wounds as soon as possible.”
0
Spaceturtlez says “If Galio ever gets removed from the game, Sylas is the next go to ban. He is a do-able matchup in lower ELOs, however, with the popularity along with his early game being an absolute mess for fizz, and on top of all of this, scaling well and snowballing better. You personally can dodge fizz ultimate with E, so always attach it to yourself, however, it does end up being a pretty good ultimate for him to steal.
Standard runes + Ignite, very volatile matchup, but very do-able. ”
0
areyouforezreal says “bait his e and then use w+e, play at longest range you can or get reaaaally good at dodging”
0
j4ss says “Annoying sustain, but you win most trades early on. bramble vest rush and then hollow radiance. your ult is very good for him so be careful.”
0
Kolashiu says “Can push : yes
Can play agressive : yes ( carefully )
Can solokill : yes
Gameplan : Solokill > Play with jgl > Roam
Wait for his E to bubble cuz he kills you easily if you miss. You usually always stats check sylas as long as you hit E.
Ignite before he press W is key to win duels
Try to dodge the 2nd hit from his Q, it's his biggest source of damage.
You can R in and flip bubble
You can roam but since he is also strong in skirmishes, if he follows wait him and trade him instead, you win a straight 1v1 while you make sure to hit E and have ignite for his W.”
0
KesNedd says “Taliyah favored. Dont be afraid, you punish hard, just make sure you have minions to cover behind so thats he cant hit E on you. Play around his cooldowns. When he hits his E on you he can be stuned by flying through your E, Its a reason why i like to freeze in this match up because whenever it happens you can insec him under your turret and thats a free kill. ”
1
DanyiiB says “Bárki bármit mond, Sylas egy mocsok matchup. Nagyon jó a hosszabb fightokban, van burstje, healeli magát és olcsóbbak az itemjei, így even lanen is erős marad. Én bannolom minden mid gamemben.”
0
Day_mico says “Easy matchup. Poke from range and if he tries to e you evade with your e and punish him”
0
step1v9 says “This matchup SHOULD be tryndamere favored. Try not to push into him as he wants this to get out of laning phase. Don't be afraid of eating his second E as long as it guarantees you a long trade window. If he steals your R then just force him to use it and disengage. If he uses it before you, you can always kill him.”
0
BurnVictim69 says “This champion performs very well against Brand thanks to his great gap closing ability and high burst damage. Avoid getting hit by his chains and focus on maintaining good spacing. Use your W+E or Q+E on the wave to poke and keep him at a distance. Once you complete Rylai’s, the matchup swings significantly in your favor.”
0
risnao says “- most important thing is to dodge his E then you can trade with him
- BUT sm of his dmg comes from his passive and he will statcheck u
- AD conq with bork is viable here”
0
Mohini says “Miserable. Can recover from your poke easily, his level 2-3 all-in will hurt, and he can just steal your ult and walk to the sidelanes with it. Almost always my main ban,
If you do want to fight him, switch to [[Bone Plating]]+[[Shield Bash]] and get an [[oblivion orb]] early. Staying mobile and fighting around your minions will allow you to get on even footing.”
0
Quinfrey says “Just don't get hit by his second e and you should be fine.
If you feel like it isn't this easy then follow the next steps:
(you can upgrade W first)
1. First put your [[Harrier]] on a minion and don´t shoot it (This is key)
2. Bring some minions between you and him - but stay in AA range and attack him when possible while dogding his Q´s ( [[Chain Lash]] )
3. Let your minion count stay the same (!)
Don't be near him without [[Harrier]] on minion OR if there aren't enough minions.
For the next step you must know something about Sylas. If he used E [[Abscond / Abduct]] he dashes (E1) if he used E in a short time again (E2) he throws his chains stuns you and fck you and your whole family on hit.
5. If he E1 -> proc your [[Harrier]] use the MS to dance battle around the minions always between you and [[sylas]]. With W bonus MS you should be able to let never a "clear" angle between you 2 -> while AA him in this dance battle.
6A. If he hits a minion or miss with his E2 -> E -> AA until Dead
6B. If he did not use E2 for ~ 4 sec -> E -> AA until Dead
6C. If he hits you with E2 -> E + run -> and you still dead.
Just repeat after this (if you're not dead and tilted :) )
Another important thing is his ult: [[Hijack]].
If he steals your ult: GO ALL IN!
There are 2 thing that can happen:
1. He will ult mid fight and you can kill him
2. He doesn't ult and kills you but when you respawn you can ult race.
Have fun!”

Acidmoroman says “Sylas will steal your maiden and fuck you off with her, early he is a monster thanks to the empowered basic, can stun you easily if you dont play with the wave, and can poke you pretty good with the Q, so... good luck, this one isnt the worst, but you can make him a monster with the maiden.”
0
Peng04 says “- Play around E 13 Sec
- I should not be scared when he uses E2 on me i can easily buffer with Charm
- Forcing R for R is not bad he cannot take your R for 200% of the duration
- When trying to punish Sylas under his tower look to bait his E once hes E is down i can play full Aggresive”

The Veigar says “Dodge His E poke until 50% and combo him

ChessScholar says “Personally, having high R haste, you can out-Ult him if he steals your Ult. Just don't get hit, he hurts.
Play inside your minion waves to prevent him from grabbing you, farm safely near turret, and play around his CDs. Oblivion rush if you're confident in a 1v1 to counter his W heal. This item also helps in skirmishes with your jungler.”
0
Kyle007 says “[[Sylas]] Can Steal your [[Hounds' Persuit]] with his [[Hijack]] and roam to other lanes. His [[Abscond / Abduct]] is the only thing to really look out for but look at your own teammates to make sure he didn't [[Hijack]] any other ultimates”
0
Kyle007 says “Dangerous and strong. He will steal your ulti and outroam you.”
0
neekogf says “electrocute/comet are both viable into him, up to preference whether you want to poke him or can combo him without losing trade
a good sylas will save his E (dash) to dodge your E, so don't just throw your E at him and poke with your Q until his E is down
can start w level 1 to harass him with w passive (empowered auto attack)
play in your wave if he walks up to you, so minions can block his E (dash/stun ability). try not to use w clone to block his E (dash) as it will give him HP back; instead, use it to go invis and move urself AND your clone away from him
when he takes your ult it does reveal you in minion/clone form with his ult passive so just be ware ”
0
Tofu Dubu says “- I always go exhaust or ignite, maw rush, really easy matchup, abuse him early.
- Abuse W poke, if he does a step forward he shouldn't take instant punish with E or W.”
0
Jumpman25th says “Take standard page and Q max
Always play with a minion between yourself and Sylas, if he cant land his chains then he loses a ton of his damage.
If you are confident in this matchup then ignite is good to stop his healing.”

LostyDerlin says “Just be ahead and snowball. He's basically nothing when you land W. ”

Jammed says “Scroll down to Matchups section for detailed explanation”

tspeach says “he's tanky, heals a ton with W, and can steal your ult. You win early if you play clean: dodge his E, and never let him get a full combo off. Look to all-in at level 3 or after Dirk spike, but only if you’ve poked him down first. If you miss your combo and he gets to heal, you’re done. Post-6, don’t give him your R for free—force him to use it defensively or bait it out. If you can’t snowball lane, just roam. He’s hard to kill later, but squishies aren’t.”
0
Marex_je_u_bushu says “Sylas is very hard matchup because of his passive. He can easily kil you entire pack so you need to try to avoid fighting him early. Later you can just W him and try to kill him with 1 Ally. Take doran blade and play for late. Take CONQ vs him”
0
yJustSad says “He is you just with dashes a usfull passive and better builds..
But you can just leave him on lane and roam a lot.”
0
22automail says “A good sylas makes this even but it can be quite easy for Xin, dodge sylas E, its super important and consider taking ignite in this lane. He does quite a lot of burst damage early but if you fight near your side of the lane you can run him down. Dodge E and you win. Trust the commitment in the duel.”
0
KomariLoL says “Sylas excels at short trades because of his W (heal), so force him into a position where you can get a longer trade. You can do this by holding the wave on your side of the lane so he has to walk further towards to get to his tower.
Focus on Wind Walling his E during trades because that is most of his damage.
You can also Wind Wall his R (the stealing part) to prevent him from stealing your or your teammate's ultimate.”

Gabbyzin says “Por que é counter?
Rouba seu R e usa melhor que você
Cura muito, aguenta seu burst
Como lidar?
Não dá R à toa — force ele a errar antes de lutar

BesXbola says “In this matchup you basically cant lose, W him every time he tries to engage and make sure to hide behind the wave so he cant E you, if hes not trying to engage and just farming you may try to poke him with empowered E + Q + auto, but be careful because he can burst you down just like you can do it with him.”

xumi_k says “You must not mess it up. If you do… well, don’t. You have to snowball or punish him severely early game for his missed skillshots /mistakes. He has long cooldowns early game, so if he misses his stun or any other ability he’s dead if you engage IMMEDIATELY, so be confident and act fast. Buying Executioner’s after first back makes the lane SIGNIFICANTLY easier. You die if he lands all his abilities. You kill him lvl2 with full passive+landed E. Watch his stolen ultimate. He deals quite a lot of damage, so be respectful. Dodge E, especially second E. ”

xKaitoLive says “Sylas is one of the best midlaner in soloq right now and is pretty similiar to fizz. You wont outtrade him if hes good and his all ins are also stronger. Try to punish him lvl 2-5 if misses his spells or if he wasted in on the wave. Try to get the wave lvl 3 under your tower so you can fish for a all in with conq. Otherwise just stay safe and scale or wait for your jungler. ”

Tamikaze says “[Orb before Nashors goes a long way]
For Sylas, there are two main versions right now, Electrocute or Conqueror. The electrocute is burst Sylas and Conqueror is DPS Sylas. I fear the electrocute one more due to the early game damage he can put off. If he manages to land an E on you at level 3 you will lose 60-70% of your hp. You have to respect the early damage on this champ. If you can get away without dying pre 6, your chances of winning are greatly increased. Conqueror Sylas is much more effective in the mid-late game, but at that point you should be stronger. I've found that Sylas players will sometimes miss their E, but still use their W aggressively in fights, hence why I take orb in this lane. It just tunes down the oppressive healing in fights, especially the close fights.”

Tatsurion says “Melee champions are doomed. Sylas is a good bit better than most, but still, he is forced to either take your poke, and a LOT OF IT, or farm with his Q, and he doesnt want either.
Watch out for the shuffles when he takes your ult. but the laning phase and lategame are yours.
Conq works fine, if the comp allows”

GreenReapers says “Any page viable.
Not that playing with Conqueror makes this matchup easier due to you being able to win long trades, but isn't necessary.
Long Sword start.
His W heal makes it necessary to play with Ignite.
Early game is rough, since he can chunk you hard with his E + Electrocute and his Passive gives him very strong extended trades, but if you manage to not give him too much of a lead till 6/your first item, you can outplay him. Dodging his second E is very important throughout the whole game. If you ult first you can control where he comes out if he mirrors your ult by swapping, so hitting your q's will be really easy. He won't be able to swap back for 0.5 seconds!”

BrMario1011 says “Honestly, this matchup is only playable if you giga shit on him or go grasp, if hes electrocute full aggro setup be super carefull, if not just stack grasp on him and when he engages on you punish him lol, his ult is extremely op for him tho and he can escape ur w with his dash, be very carefull with this one

SkandalloTV says “He has higher base damage and healing in early game. Try to farm from far. If you ever go in, use W instantly to reduce his burst damage. Irelia's ultimate is great for him.

otaliz says “Since he's a melee champion, he'll only win trades if he gets melee with you, so don't let him jump on you with his E. Sylas is only an extreme threat because of his ultimate, which can copy Twisted Fate's ultimate and have the same presence on the map and follow your roaming. Try to push the wave as much as possible from level 6 to make him decide to either follow the roaming, or farm the wave.”

Laimaudeja says “Stand inside your allied minion wave, so when Sylas uses [[Abscond]], he will have a harder time hitting you with [[Abduct]], reducing a lot of his burst damage. Should you get hit regardless, you can place a [[Hexplosive Minefield]] right under yourself to deal some chip damage before knocking him away with [[Satchel Charge]].
Due to [[Abscond]]'s long cooldown and Sylas being a melee champion, you can beat him down with [[Short Fuse]] and [[Bouncing Bomb]]s during its downtime. Avoid getting too close though, as [[Kingslayer]] gives him an obnoxious amount of sustain in lane.
Avoid using [[Mega Inferno Bomb]] as an executioner-style move, as Sylas will typically just be able to escape with [[Abscond]]. It would be much more likely to land once he latches onto you with [[Abduct]] and you aim it on top of yourself immediately afterwards.”

Yannou-Ari says “Flash - TP (ignite or barrier can work) - Scaling HP. COMET with bone plating
Q start if he starts E.
Sylas is a tricky matchup depending on the player you're facing. if they're good, they will make your laning phase a nightmare. Your Q is just too slow, he can just use his E to dodge it and gap-close you at the same time and land his chain. I would actually recommend to play super safe in this lane because if you both go 0-0-0, it is to your advantage. If he doesn't go for zhonyas, he's a pretty easy target to one shot from afar in fights. If the sylas player is bad, this match up turns into easy since you will just be able to one shot him with your combo.”

ShokLoL says “Sylas lane is all about dodging his E2. If you get hit by his chain you will almost certainly lose the trade, but if he misses it you can punish him heavily. Stay close enough to the creeps that he can’t easily E you, but far enough away that he can’t just hit both you and the creeps with his Q. Sylas snowballs extremely hard but if he doesn’t find a lead he won’t be too hard to deal with, and you can usually build a small lead in lane as long as you don’t die solo or to his gank setup. Try keep the wave on your side after the initial couple of waves for extra safety. Make sure you save a W to WE away and try ult him into your tower post 6.

Snarik says “Really any character that can lock you down and burst you 100 to 0 will be a hard match-up to win, but With good help from your jungler and minimal inting it's still winnable. my personal perma ban since when he's good you can't play the game as long as he's on the map”

Soft Headpats says “> The main thing you have to watch out for is his [[abscond / abduct]] (E). If you dodge his E's second-cast, this lane is fairly easy.
> You can cancel his E with your [color=#8E44AD]EQ[/color] if you time it correctly. Aside from watching out for his E, you can poke him freely with [color=red]Q[/color] spells and AAs ([[Summon Aery]] is great in this lane).
> Your ult is really strong for him since he can either fish with it or guarantee it if he manages to hit an E. Just make sure you play safe if he steals your ult since he can easily run you down if you get hit by it.
> [[Liandry's Torment]] is often great against Sylas due to his naturally high HP.
> [[Oblivion Orb]] can also be considered if you find that he's healing too much in teamfights, but usually it's not needed especially when 1v1ing.

ShokLoL says “Sylas is all about his chain. You can win trades by poking and either dodging the chain or if you time your E correctly you can cancel it.

Deceiver_euw says “LeBlanc does well into sylas in lane, but sylas has really high HP and MR per level scaling so he becomes super stat-checky. This doesnt mean that he will always outscale you because his scaling will still depend on what ults he can steal from your teammates. Sylas will always take your last used ability as his LB ult so keep in mind which ult he took from you and play accordingly to that.”

plankbro says “You would think this is a bad matchup, but it's really not. His only scary ability is his dash-into-CC chains, so utilize your wave. Trade with him while walking inbetween and around minions to always keep a minion between you and him after he dashes. His strength is in running down squishy mages, so stand and fight, and you will win. If Sylas has ignite, you might die, but you'll also get a plate because he will have to back after an all in. Mid game and late game, Sylas cannot touch you, and once you have 3 items you can reliably duel and to be quite frank, just auto him to death. He cannot stop you, so don't let him. Only thing to be careful of is early game ganks. Enemy Sylas is a great lane for enemy junglers to gank because Sylas has a dash-into-CC, and you cannot outtrade two enemies. Save your R's in laning phase to run from enemy jungler and use it if you see Sylas trying to chain-CC you.”

vSomnia says “Take ignite. If he hits his second E with all passive stacks your lane is over. Try to harass him with Q's and try to dodge his second E standing behind minions. Once he misses E look for trades. This lane is all about who takes control over the lane by hitting abilities or dodging enemy abilities. If you feel like you can kill him, go all in instantly use ignite so he doesnot heal from his W as much and look to kill him. Take electrocute looking for short fights since longer fights are Sylas favored.”

FelixMrChat says “Hardcore matchup. You will suffer. The fact that he can steal your ultimate, which represents 75% of your impact on the game, will be very, very difficult to manage for both you and your team. In this kind of matchup, I would tend to take Phase Rush, then rush a Riftmaker with Mercury's Treads and then a Rylai's Crystal Scepter if you feel that your resistance is still too low. If the support doesn't build anti-heal, you will need it yourself, even if I don't like to do it in Swain's mid lane kit.”

Kikife says “Sylas is extremely good at getting on top of you and killing you quickly. As well as this, stealing your ult means that he can secure kills on other lanes easily.
Beware of pushing the wave into him or being on his side of the lane at all, as once he freezes it in his favour he can win by stunning you. Play behind minions and wait for his stun to miss for you to choose to engage, and watch for him roaming as it'll be a free kill for him most of the time.”

He most likely won't get much value out of your ult in earlier stages of the game. But be careful for gank setups when he's got your ult.”

Glitchgun says “How this champion is hard to rate on threats! Since he is close range, you got the upper hand in lane and can be pretty safe with hail of blades. Since he is mostly gonna steal your ult in lane, none of you is gonna die, but he can be a REAL PAIN in teamfights if he gets a dangerous ult or get to free roam, so don't let him roam.”

tangerrine says “Beatable, just not easily. You HAVE to avoid his E and make sure you poke him down, or else he just outlives your damage and can stick onto you. If he does manage to E to you, you can try and throw your E to counter it. Just make sure you don't use E at all, as his E1 will counter it and he can just punish you with E2. If the sylas is good, they will use your clone to catch up to you or even heal with W. Build anti-heal and/or just dont clone towards him. ”

Waqql says “If you know what you're doing, it's not much of a problem to win against Sylas. Pay attention to his and your ultimate, as Sylas can directly use Gnar's ultimate. Try not to get hit by his crowd control, and everything should be fine. It's also advisable to buy antiheal relatively early. I wish there was a magic resist antiheal item.
If you fall behind once, it's difficult to recover, so wait for a 2v1 situation and focus on farming.”

Ich finde Sylas in Solo Queue absolut garbage in Ahri.
Die meisten Sylas spielen 24/7 in deinem Gesicht und du gewinnst early trades einfach, solange du ihn aus der Kette Charmst.
Ignite + Aggressiv in Lane ist super free für Solo Queue.
Comp ist was anderes, du verlierst Sidelane später gegen Sylas aufgrund der Ulti.
In Teamfights kannst du sehr unangenehm für Sylas sein durch den Charm, aber das ist sehr Teamcomp abhängig.
Ich spiele das Matchup in Solo Queue super gerne, in Comp eher ungern.”

Anguish333 says “- Be careful of his E engage level 1, stand behind minions
- Later if he uses his E dodge it with your own E and then use E2 and Passive proc into Shroud Q trade
- Use ignite right before you think he will heal
- He is not AS hard for Akali as matchup, he is problematic for our team when he takes our Ult
- Don't give him free W Heals
- Don't take his Q2 Dmg, it's really easy to dodge, unless you get creep blocked (that happens quite often -.-)
- His E2 Interrupts our E2 / R1 / R2
- If he steals your Ult, and both of you use it at the same time, your ult will come off cd a bit earlier than he can take it again, so you can all in after bit of poke”

Fantasygamer02 says “Very similar to Akali, but Sylas can sometimes be a little scary in the early lane. Sylas can out-duel Ivern pre-6 and if you are not careful he can easily make you recall really early or even play for a kill. Just play as safe as possible until level 6 and he likely will not be able to do much, as him getting Daisy is significantly worse than you getting Daisy (Ivern shield on Daisy is incredibly strong and hard to deal with for the vast majority of melee matchups).”

Edwwardo says “Can't really do much if you keep your distance but if you misplay he can really punish you for it.

Sylas' R is useless. Poke him out early. As long as you dodge his E's second cast, you auto-win the lane. Make sure to take note of what ability Sylas max's first since it'll tell you which abilities to prioritize dodging.

Atemporal says “Neste confronto você ganha muito difícil do nível 1-4. Nível 1 se Sylas usar sua habilidade, geralmente Q ou E, você pode subir de nível seu E e pular nele. , seu hp base está entre os mais baixos de todos
midlaners. Sylas também tem grandes problemas de mana no início, não tenha medo de negociar permanentemente com ele durante os primeiros níveis. O E dele tem um CD de 14 segundos no nível 1, então sempre que ele usar você pode dar um E nele duas vezes antes de voltar. Você
geralmente querem procurar uma morte solo em Sylas durante os primeiros níveis. Como Sylas tem estatísticas de base muito baixas, não tenha medo de lutar por longas lutas contra ele se ele jogar todos os seus cooldowns. Após o nível 6, a pista se torna mais difícil. No entanto Ekko
ainda tem o empurrão mais forte, então comece a empurrar as ondas se o Sylas permitir. Bons jogadores Sylas serão agressivos quando souberem que podem vencê-lo, então eles não deixarão você empurrar as ondas tão facilmente, mas contra a maioria dos jogadores funcionará.
Sempre que Sylas roubar sua ult, não lute com ele. Tente o seu melhor para esperar. Sylas será 1v1 invencível quando ele tiver Ekko R. Espere ele acabar, então lute com ele. Você vai vencê-lo se tiver vantagem ult.
Ekko geralmente não pode vencer Sylas após o nível 5 e depois por um tempo por causa de como o W de Sylas contraria os padrões de negociação de Ekko. Mas depois de um tempo a cura do W de Sylas se torna cada vez menos significativa porque você acaba tendo muito dano
em Eko. Normalmente, quando você tem Protobelt e Nashor's Tooth, você pode começar a derrotar Sylas. Depois de 3 itens você vai demolir totalmente Sylas. A menos que ele tenha empilhado uma tonelada
de Magic Resist, você o explodirá facilmente. Sente-se em Fog of War e espere que ele use habilidades na onda. Se o E dele estiver baixo, você pode facilmente pousar um W enquanto ele está limpando as ondas. Afastar-se e deixar sua ignição/retorno Q acabar com ele pode ser inteligente para
negue-o de roubar sua ult se ele ainda não o fez. Você pode evitar o roubo dele do seu R cronometrando o seu R (use R logo antes que o roubo da cadeia R dele atinja você). No momento eu permaban Sylas sobre Kassadin porque Sylas é tão popular.
(cerca de 15% pickrate vs 4% pickrate de Kassadin) Sylas é um banimento extremamente valioso.”

Spoomk says “He's a tough matchup, his re-engage after you W can be hard to escape from without a teammate, and he can dodge your W if he wants to with his plethora of unnecessary dashes.

Cheeseypops1 says “This is basically a full skill match up in lane but you outscale him, basically if you hit your abilities you will win with ingite, But with his dash he can easily dodge your Q or E and force a winning trade for himself, If he gets a lead on you the becomes terrible, But if you can reach 6 and your even or ahead its usually free. Even if he can steal the stats back by stealing your R you force him into all inning you if you R him and he only wants to do short trades, If you are behind build a Negatron cloak ”

Xelikari says “I highly recommend Doran’s Ring + Q start here, he doesn’t have anything level 1 that can outdamage a full Flamespitter but try to be careful incase he started E. Push for 2 and pressure him when he walks up, the only thing that will lose you this matchup is getting hit by a full combo at any point in time. Also try not to take short trades with him multiple times when he’s low or his W will just heal him for a ton every time.
Comet is nice for additional lane pressure, otherwise go Electrocute and look to roam. I would delay your mythic and pick up Morello’s first, if he’s good he steals your ultimate and roams post-6, but he’s probably bad at landing it so don’t worry too much. I roam a lot in this matchup after level 6 but you can stay and fight him too, just make sure again to never be hit by a full combo, pressure him when you have a cooldown advantage and you should be fine. ”

Veng Shotz says “Rush an executioners if you arent going Ign. you generally outtrade him so long as you dont let him e+e2 stun you. Even if he starts maxing w your executioners will kill his sustain, keep poking him with Q and make sure to space yourself properly, he should never be able to w for free without GW on him.
level 6 he wins if he can w you more than twice, since he'll be using your ult. like morde, watch out for his build path, build MR if he rushes armor. Dont be greedy. ”

xblademojo says “You might lose trades against him from level 1 if he lands chain (E). Don't push too far towards his turret, otherwise its gonna be easier for him to fight, even in minion wave.

DixonTheGuideMaker says “To make it hard for Sylas to land his E on you, always make sure you’re behind at least 1 minion so he cannot land the CC on you. Look for extended trades after Sylas has wasted an ability. This will make it harder for him to out trade you in a skirmish. Look out for his Passive though and try to wait for the stacks to disappear before committing to a trade. Sylas has really good map pressure and can roam with ease. If he has left lane and started roaming, communicate with your team and push him in to deny him gold and XP.”

Try and stay at max range as much as possible to make it harder for him to get on to you. Sylas has really good map pressure and can roam with ease. If he has left lane and started roaming, communicate with your team and push him in to deny him gold and XP.”

Adamonias says “Sylas Favoured. You CAN poke him out of lane, but if you shove he will look for the E engage. If he W maxes you are only worried about the all in, if he Q maxes you should be a little worried about his poke. Generally if hes on Conq. he doesnt have pressure on you in lane, bc if you get all inned your juist running and juking, ie you wont take the extended trade that conq will be good at. If hes smart he'll go Fleet or Elec. then you need to be worried. ”

Body Those Fools says “Most Sylas players will trade aggressively level 1 with E or they'll start Q to last hit the first 3 minions. You HAVE to dodge the E or you will get chunked by his full combo. You can Ult him away, but as his E2 hits you. If you do it before his E2 hits you, he will E through your Ult and be pulled toward you. Freeze the wave at your tower and abuse your range advantage. I like Ignite in this matchup because of his Ws insane healing (it's higher the lower HP he is), but you can go Teleport/Oblivion Orb instead as well.”

Bughans says “Difficult matchup but not completely unwinnable, he can dodge your W with his E, AND he can yoink your entire ultimate which really benefits him. Try and predict when he'll engage in lane, sylas players always play like it's their last day on earth”

HikariWoosh says “Pre 3 you can trade well with Sylas, but after that forget it, he will dash ontop of you, chunk you down and heal all your damage.

KayyeN says “You have to punish him pre-level 6, but after that, he does what you do in the 1v1, only better. He generally outdamages you, his Q is good poke, his W heals him for ungodly amounts of HP and his copy of your R is arguably worth more than your own, because his E not only serves as a double-gap-closer, but also as a knockup that can interrupt you. Generally impossible to play as soon as he has a few points in his W.”

Make sure to ignite before he W's, and never all-in solo if ignite is down.”

Super08131208 says “He trades very well against any AP Assassin. You will want to avoid pretty much all of his abilities, especially his W and E since he literally heals all his HP back. Don't try to fight him head on early. Sylas is not unkillable, so at level 6 use your dash advantage to kill him. Though he'll steal your ult and use it against you, as long as you don't get caught by his E, you win.

Zoose says “Keep trades quick as possible as he will heal most damage taken with his W heal. Ignite is a must if you have any chance of killing him, and oblivion orb is great to counter him, especially if he maxes his W first. Always be ready to stun him with E, then follow up with W. At lv 6, he will use your ult against you, which isn't that much of a threat, but he will probably use it to roam top or bot. Be ready to match him.”

quinn adc says “First, Sylas Q is 775 range, while your auto range is 525, so he has the range advantage with his Q poke. Be mindful of this because his Q detonates after at the end, which does additional damage, so try not to be at the end of his shackles when he uses this ability.
In this lane, SAVE YOUR VAULT ALWAYS! Let Sylas use his Chain E on you, and when he dashes towards you, use vault to RETALIATE and push you back.
When you vault from his chain pull, you can indefinitely kite him since his gap closer is gone.
The matchup is pretty easy so long as you don't get hit by his Qs in lane, and you vault to retaliate against his engage in lane.
You beat Sylas pretty hard too because he relies on using his R against champs, but him stealing your R means that both of you don't have a combat ultimate. If sylas steals your R, just inform your team that he has it and might plan a roam!
Play aggro in lane :)”

Esrucnl says “So Sylas is a bit weird, since Sylas wins early vs Fizz because of his W, however he is killable when you ignite him.
I'd say its favourable towards Sylas, but Fizz can win this.
Make sure you press E or R after he used his dash (e) ability or else its too easy to dodge.
Also when he tries to ult you: you can use your E mid animation and he won't get your ultimate ability, while his goes on cooldown because of the untargetability on Fizz E.
I recommend going oblivion orb very early after dark seal as a build. It will help you.”

As a general rule Sylas does a lot of dmg in short bursts, but once he’s used up all his abilities and passive auto’s, he’s very very weak with long cd’s. Meanwhile Shen will quickly get his Q back in the extended trade and wins it out in the end.

desch3445 says “Sylas can feel like doggy doodoo garbo shite to play against, and for this one alls I can give you is you need to get a good grasp of your damage output so you know EXACTLY when you can go in, or else he's gonna click the funny little W key on his quirky little keyboard and insta win.
Take the First Strike page; This is one of the few matchups I'd say there is literally no other option for keystones, as he's too bulky to be affected by Electrocute, shrugs off Aery poke with W, wins extended fights, so Conq is out of the question. Thankfully, he doesn't tend to build resists with a large health pool, and has unreliable poke, which is absolutely perfect for First Strike gold farming.”

ThePieBeam says “Sylas is Sylas. Don't get too close and don't push lane early or else you'll lose out on cs and possibly exp depending on how aggro he plays it. If he manages to hit his hook on you, Q him and run out of his melee range, then counterattack. Otherwise just care for his early and you'll do fine. Thankfully your ult isn't very good against you so you don't have to worry much. And if he sucks he'll drain all of his mana using it so that's good.”

lonestar1870 says “Slowpush Early and poke him under tower. You have perma prio on the wave and can zone him from farm. Get a nice CS advantage and prio when you need it.
You shouldn't ever die to him in laning, but he does have a lot of burst damage. He is useless after his intitial trade, he will look to run away after he uses all his spells and enhanced autos. You can then chase him without any threat of return damage so you don't lose the trade too hard.
You can use your E to stop his chain dash onto you (but he can buffer his chain to dash through your stun).
You can go Electrocute, PR, or Aery in this matchup depending how you want to play the lane.
I prefer Teleport into Sylas (and rushing grevious wounds), but you can go ignite if you are confident in your 1v1.
Oblivion Orb early is great to cut his healing.
Void Staff if he starts building MR.”

not as long as morgana (thank you to bronze "3" ksing support main for the correction)”

Miscake says “A maioria dos Sylas jogam com Conqueror, Glacieterno e Abraço Demoníaco, essa itemização deixa ele com status defensivos e ofensivos superiores ao seus por um preço de build menor, sem contar que é dificíl abusar na lane com AAs já que ele vai ter 3 dashes a partir do nível 3. Não vá pra trocas longas onde o Conqueror dele cura mais e ative Phase Rush antes de usar o W, já que caso contrário ele vai estar no seu range assim que seu W acabar.
A menos que você consiga uma vantagem no early ele vai ganhar nas sides também, então controle a wave e peça por ganks. O setup de runas aqui é Phase Rush com ignite.

WayOfTheTempesst says “This matchup is annoying because of his sustain and burst. You can't Q3 into him or he will just E
you. Rush vamp scepter to match his sustain. You have to dodge his Qs, especially the 2nd part. Don't take
extended trades with him. Hide in between minions so he can't hit you with the second part of his E. Mortal
Reminder is a good 2nd item, especially if the enemy team has more healing.”

Katawina52 says “Almost unbeatable when he has points in his W. Try to kill him early levels while he has no items with d blade/long sword. Unfortunately thanks to his W trades are pretty unwinnable (3+ points in W) so look to play safe until jgler makes a play. He is really bad in 2v2/3v3 scenarios where as Katarina is really strong there. Once you have your item spike u can look for all ins, but only if he used his E else it's pointless to go for it. Make sure to always ult instantly as soon as possible when you go for an all in, because you will make his W only heal 40% which is really crucial.”

eiensiei says “Lux out-ranges him and I'll go for passive procs as long as there's at least 1 minion betweens us. I'll trade with him if I land my Q, as my Q-AA-E-AA deals more damage than he does through my W. Important to remember that his W heals more when he's low on HP and it can come as a surprise, even at early levels. Later on I'll try to Q+E+R without letting him get close to me.”

Drewmatth Taliyah says “MELEE = PUSH EARLY (LEVELS 1-2) - CARE FOR GANKS! (SPAM Q'S TILL 50-60% MANA).
Corrupting because of his annoying sustain. You might supplement it with a Doran's Ring i you feel his burst is high and that he can play well. Can be a rather difficult matchup if you get camped due to his CC spell and how easy he can reach you. Use your WE to push him away from you when needed and if you miss it trying to engage on him or to kill him back off because he can turn on you and you won't have much to protect yourself. Usually he cannot 100-0 you but some MR will work. On Roaming be careful because he can steal your ult (PING IT if so!!). Also beware of his sustain and heals - it can outplay you sometimes. Ignite helps greatly in this matchup but if you feel you are going to get outplayed get something defensive such as heal/barrier.”
0
Yeager says “You have to watch out for his early game damage with corrupting potion. He has a ton of burst and sustain which makes it very hard for Yone to win early trades. Stay behind minions when his E is up so he can't grab you with E2. Getting early healing reduction will make the trades easier. Basically just farm out the early game, look for trades when he uses abilities to farm with. You win easily after you get berserkers and first mythic item. ”

Polarshift says “Sylas takes short/burst trades. Try to keep your distance so he can't use his W to heal on you. Try to stay out of the center of where his Q hits, because it deals more damage. Fortunately we have a team that can help us out while we keep him stunned, since he's still melee. Always dodge his second E, because that is a lot of his damage. Learn important ability cooldowns through an external website and fight enemies when their abilities are on cooldown.”

Avucado says “This is by far Pyke's worst matchup and I highly recommend perma banning this champ even though I personally don't. If you see Sylas picked and you locked in Pyke, dodge. He can take your ult in team fights and wipe your whole team easier than you can. Along with this, he can beat you in lane easily. Don't try to trade early because he almost always starts E first so you can't hit him with hook or E. He will have corrupting pots so he will be full with 1 or 2 more remaining afterwards. Look for hooks into autos, don't Hook->E because he will dash out. Lvl 6 you will get completely destroyed as he can take your ult. He can dash to avoid your ult, heal out of it or just out damage you. Look to roam and ask for ganks if you're shoved in. In the end, he will outscale you and wipe your own team with your ult. ”

Eriosunx says “Sylas is a popular pick midlane in 11.10. The weakest side of sylas is that he is pretty squishy early levels and in order to take the best advantage in lane you have to play aggro from lv2 to lv5.
Best runes are CONQUEROR+BONEPLATING / ELECTROCUTE+W/E U NEED.
BOTRK RUSH and E MAX makes the laning phase way easier due to his low base-armor.
Make sure to not push too much the wave and try to get him under your tower or at least close to it when you hit lv3 so you can all-in him with conqueror.
*SYLAS CHEESE* some sylas tend to start with E(CHAINS) lv1 and chain on you on level one. The way to counter this is to start with SHUNPO as first spell take the chain and AUTO E AUTO him, this way you will 100% out-trade him and you will get a significant advantage in the lane.”

Curt Mcbeltpants says “This is my personal favorite matchup if you can cancel his W and avoid getting lashed by his E with your E you can win lane easily. Is usually out of mana after a couple of headbangs on the keyboard if he doesn't have corrupting pot”

Yeager says “Pre-6 he can only get to you if he hits the second part of E. If you can dodge that, he can't activate aftershock so he will lose the trades if you keep your distance.
He is melee, so you can use your range advantage to poke him and get control of the lane early.
Don't get baited when you see him at low hp and rush in. People always underestimate the healing from his W.

Urpog says “One of your easiest matchups, he has some windows where he can kill you but you have about 10 of them before he ever has one on you, if they're starting ignite then D shield start is mandatory, just flip him whenever he's using his dash towards you and it's almost guaranteed dead from there.”

With electrocute ignite you should be able to easily kill him unless he picks up some random kills.”

Poke Him lvl 1 and try to dodge his E,you can all-in sylas lvl 2.

grevious wounds is really great against sylas or if you don't want to buy grevious l early you can just use ignite.”

Kords says “The difference between winning and loosing the lane gets decided when you can dodge hos E2 or he atches you because he can deal a lot of burst damage and killing you will be problematic if he lands that spell. Otherwise he is not a threat but as a bruiser/assassin hibrid in kit with the highest base stats in game he has the potential to kill you easier than how you would deal with him. At low HP his W also heals a lot that can change the course ofthe fight.”

Sylas snowballs extremely hard but if he doesn’t find a lead he won’t be too hard to deal with, and you can usually build a small lead in lane as long as you don’t die solo or to his gank setup. Try keep the wave on your side after the initial couple of waves for extra safety. Hold onto your E to make sure you can disengage trades.

Ambitieux says “Sylas due to his recent nerfs of armor. But buffs of MR allow Ahri to actually do better against him then most. One big thing to mention is that his dash into chain can be canceled mid air of chain due to charm. Its just like Leblanc so time it well. Other than that he is very easy harassable and you can get him into turret quite fast and auto him out of lane. Watch out for his lvl 6 against you. If he takes ur ult and he uses it even once. Don't try to out play him just ult away and try again later.”

I've often won this match up due to Sylas players being some of the worst OTPs, with the champion being extremely bad.

You do outrange, but he can easily outmaneuver you if given the opportunity.

kindo says “Extremely easy matchup, he can never all in you at any point of the game unless he's extremely fed. If he goes for a trade pre-6, he will have no disengage after his E. Either use Q diagonally forwards to try and dodge his E, but chase him down after he engages. He doesn't have the damage to kill you pre 6 unless minions are also damaging you. Poke him down, but save your W for when he trades back. Post-6, it becomes a bit tricky. It's a bit of a mindgame of whether he will ult first or not. If he ults first, treat it like you would anything else and execute him out of your ult. If you need to ult first, Throw your E on him but only activate one of the marks. Once it's ending, auto again to refresh the mark duration but maintaining 2 stacks, he'll drop your ult. Now just wait until it ends and keep your distance so he can't W you to heal when it ends, Q/auto and you win. Overall, ignite cuts his healing if he's low and know that his CD to grab your ult is double your ult CD.”

Tortizzy says “This is a really annoying matchup because of the massive healing sylas has. Play aggresive in the early levels but once he gets his W (life steal ability) you need to play defensive and wait for your jungler to help. Dodge his chain stun aswell or else you might die.”

TheDisconnectEUW says “FOR MIDLANE
Sylas with Zilean ult sounds scary on paper, but most of the time people have no idea how to use it and it can just end up being worse than him taking a different ult.

Conq is recommended, since you would be trading autoes. Once he wastes his E, do not hesitate to trade back. After six, if he does not have E, ult him. Just like a Zed 1v1, most Sylas players will ult you straight back, which you can abuse by WQE behind yourself and swap back to R. (COMBO) Early executioners recommended.

Take cleanse, double MR runes and either exhaust or ignite depending on your confidence. Note that when Sylas steals your ultimate, he goes invisible when he Q's so don't be surprised when you can't see him.

Puedes optar por cada opción en función de la composición enemiga.”

Redeemteam says “This is fizz's hardest counter imo. Even if you get a lead early, since Fizz is stronger than sylas early on, once he gets points in W and Ability Haste he will win almost any trade and its not even hard for him to do so. I would use my ban on Sylas as a fizz player or dodge.”

TheMockingSnowman says “He has a lot of sustains along with dashes which make it hard to win trade against him. Respect his range and try to outroam him. Fortunately, you will be more useful than him later on. I would recommend Aftershock and/or Ignite if you want to have a chance at winning trade.

BullRedHunter says “Annoying matchup, you must take ignite and get level 2 before him and trade with him before he gets level 2, use your ignite before he heals and you can win lane that way, if u cant fight with him just stay safe and scale, you out scale him”
0
iKrez says “This is the most free match-up possible.
You can trade him since lvl 1 starting W, making proc your Electrocute with 2 different elements.
The only way sylas can beat you is because you took a bad trade before the all-in and you have ignite in cooldown.
Be sure to ignite him at the start of the all-in to reduce his healing.”
0
The Jhin Cena says “Take either Fleet Footwork Rune Page. When facing a Sylas, mainly avoid getting grabbed by his E2 as this can lead to you getting comboed and taking a big chunk of damage. To do this, simply hide behind your minions, stand out of range, or use your E and you will easily be able to avoid it. Just safely farm for the first 2 levels, and once you hit level 3 you can start intelligently looking for short trades. Avoid extended trades since he can easily out sustain you. Ideally look to trade when his abilities are down, most notably his E since he can avoid your engage and then E2 once you snap back to your body. Getting Executioner's Calling on your first or second back is also highly recommended since he has a ton of healing built into his kit which makes it more difficult to win trades. Mainly look to farm the early game without getting too greedy, as you will more so shine in the mid to late game while Sylas has a more dominant early game.”

cauedg15 says “Another of Pyke's top three counters in mid is Sylas, because of his destructive duelist potential, in no time Pyke will win a duel of Sylas. Another factor is that Sylas can steal your R and use it against your own team.”

Zileni says “Take Ignite no matter what, he is literally gonna out damage you during laning phase. Sylas however has mana issues so you can use that to your advantage. What's cool is that if Sylas throws out his ultimate chain at you, you can ult back to stop him from getting ultimate. If however Sylas does have Ekko ultimate, you really cannot win against him 1v1 and therefore play safe against him.”

XD001 says “Sylas has insanely long early cooldowns but will absolutely smack you in short trades. Make sure to always trade with your W shield. His full E1 + E2 + AA + W + AA + Q + AA + AA fully stacks conqueror and can chunk about 2/3 of your HP if he lands everything. At level 6 its almost impossible to kill him solo because of his R. In side lanes you can solo kill him if you have grievous wounds. Everyone can see Sylas' echo, as well.
Sylas outscales Ekko.
Take Conq if lots of tanks, or electrocute + sorcery otherwise.”

GabomanDeLegado says “Sí o sí hay que llevar ignite contra Sylas, de otra forma será muy complicado ganarle un trade con lo que se cura. Esquivar sus E es esencial para negarle mucho daño, y si tenemos más dinero vale la pena invertir en cortacuraciones. Nuestra Q le niega daño y curación.”

HeroAronNavius says “Sylas is a really hard counter against Yone. No one likes to play against a sylas because of his lifesteal. Try to rush Executioners calling. You cant kill Sylas early game because of his heavy lifesteal plus if he buys corruption potion which he will most likely do. Sylas has a ton of early burst and sustain which makes it very hard to trade early against sylas.”

Luciiid says “As long as they arent faker, its an easy lane. Dodge E2 and its a free trade. Take null orb and electrocute or conqueror works into him. Be careful of his w. If he does a w max then he will heal ~300 hp every 5-6 seconds.”
0
Havenia says “You need your exhaust, and if he ults you. It's likely he won't have a stopwatch with your ult, but you will. You can beat Sylas with a stopwatch and your R easily. Also wait for JG ganks, that way he's a free kill because he can only W one of you.”

Noodles912 says “Waveclear, cc, healing, mobility, and shark robbing. Just avoid fighting him when he has all his abilities, and roam a lot. If you are low, stay away. If he uses Q, try to trade. Save E for his second part of E. Look to burst him with corrupting potion. PTA is recommended.”

PASS10NE says “You will win trades against Sylas if you're able to dodge his E. Sylas' W is the most troublesome ability of Sylas, so be wary of that.

BigBushMan says “Personal favorite to permaban, His in lane sustain and healing in fights is ridiculous. Rushing Executioners Calling is a good idea, and then transitioning into a Morellonomicon later in the game as a 3rd or 4th item. He will win fights early easily, and level 6 is dangerous as he can steal your ult and do the same damage you could do, if not more. Very hard matchup in general, look for a freeze and jungle help.”

BigFatCat909 says “Him stealing your ultimate isn't bad at all due to the wording of Zed's ultimate. The burst of Death Mark states that it deals a percentage of all the damage dealt by "Zed", Sylas stealing your ult doesn't make him Zed. Try to avoid Melee range when he is missing a majority of his health due to his overpowered healing on his W. I recommend Eclipse and Mercury Treads for this matchup.”
0
FogivenDevil says “Sheesh he hurts. He also heals anything you want to do to him early. He can shove you in, take your ult, then roam and get a quad. Not a great match-up. Banning him is never a bad idea with Pyke, if he is there get a null-magic mantle and hold the line and try to follow his roams.”
0
Hiimkata says “Almost unbeatable when he has points in his W. Try to kill him early levels while he has no items with d blade/long sword. Unfortunately thanks to his W trades are pretty unwinnable (3+ points in W) so look to play safe until jgler makes a play. He is really bad in 2v2/3v3 scenarios where as Katarina is really strong there. Once you have bork/wits end you can look for all ins, but only if he used his E else it's pointless to go for it. Make sure to always ult instantly as soon as possible when you go for an all in, because you will make his W only heal 40% which is really crucial.”

Jnewbringspain says “Not too hard, but you'll need to be careful of a couple things. Firstly, he can steal your ult AND stack Feast just like you can, so he can indeed become very tanky. Secondly, be careful of his Kingslayer ability. It will heal him, and the heal is almost double if he's below 40% health. You'll need to poke him down to a certain threshhold, then go all in and execute with Feast. You'll want to do short trades then disengage with Sylas during lane phase. You can win fights going all in, but he definitely has the upper hand if you miss anything, or if the fight goes on too long.

Dannala says “Practically only AoE with that passive and Q, will eat spider-lings for breakfast. Has high mobility so if he goes in on you it's best to stun and retreat to cut your loses before he starts swinging. With his shield gone it's easier to burst him down but without grievous wounds he will heal up right away. You can use your spider-lings to block his E chain and gives a minor miss click chance for his W if he plays without target champs on cast.”
0
wildersovereign says “His healing is obnoxious and he can steal your ult, which he can use extremely well in teamfights. Don't let him dodge your Q with his dash if possible, as it allows him to follow up with his recast E and deal a lot of damage. His dash is usually too short to escape your R, though, so take advantage of that and kill him. Get an early Oblivion Orb if he's any good so he doesn't turn around fights with Kingslayer.”

BubbaStudmuffin says “Sylas will wreck your shit with the build and runes of this guide.
I ban him every game.
Here is why:
1) You cant delete him... He generally builds semi tanky & has a super fat heal that .. he will get off.
2) He is more mobile. One of Akali's biggest strengths is how mobile she is. It enrages the enemy how much you move about the battlefield. It does not enrage Sylas. In fact he benefits from it. If we were just comparing stats they would match in mobility. Unfortunately, this isn't clear cut because he can steal your fucking ultimate. This is a huge boost on how mobile he is and for an enemy to have more mobility than you with this build is devastating.
3) You are not a tank and he has several point & click abilities. So between the fact he wont miss and he will catch you, you're fucked.
4) You can't hide. His abilities have a fairly big hit box and his passive gives him aoe autos. If you shroud, likelihood is he will still hit you.
5) It isnt just you who will get fucked. Even if you play safe and never let him get you, he will steal your ult and roam bot lane. A Sylas with Akali's ult is deadly and your bot lane will most likely get dunked. Then he will come back with extra gold (IE extra items, IE extra damage) and dunk your butt.
IF! By some dumb fuck reason you choose not to ban him and he is your enemy in lane here is what you gotta do:
1st) Ping the hell out of the map when he roams... Be a good teammate and dont let him dunk bot lane.
2nd) In lane, you have to engage on him first! But that isnt enough!... You have to engage on him first after he has blown his abilities on the minion wave. Again, and Again, and Again! You abuse the hell out of him when he has less abilities and you fucking dip out before he gets them back up. Do that enough and you might be able to pull out a win.”
0
SkyBanana says “You don't want him to steal your ultimate at all. It can end up not being in your favor if you ult, Sylas steals your ult and he wins the fight since it is the same amount of impact. Not to mention he can go all in early in the game and force you to not be a champion.”

invalidd says “One of the best counterpicks to pyke mid since he gets to use his ultimate and that can be devastating for your own team. I highly suggest you
ban him if you don't feel like banning Akali because he will win every trade using his point and click W to get all of his HP back, he can also dash away
from your stun and hook and mess you up in a trade, it's not worth buying executioner's either because you need your mythic ASAP to do as much as him in
skirmishes and teamfights, really dangerous. Complicated to setup ganks on.”

If he gets on you you will most likely lose the trade cuz of his w heal.
Reminder that you when his chain lands you can activate your q as it is flying, Save it for when he gets onto you. He will be dumb most of the time and waste his w for straight up dmg with his passive. you can stun him walk away, When he turns to leave you can e aa and win the trade nicely.
Watch out for his jungler as this can turn from extremely easy into a nightmare of a matchup.
Make sure to ward river to avoid getting abused

Big Shawn says “Sylas is somewhat broken, but also not. If the both champs are, in terms of gold lead, even, then Ekko should be able to win the trades. Just cause of his burst damage compared to Sylas. But he will get quite annoying when he steals your ultimate ability.”

Ambitieux says “This matchup really isn't that hard. If he is within auto attack range. Bully him. If he tries to go in on you, Miasma urself and just kite him out. The only thing ur fighting here is your mana usage. After your first mana item this should be a very easy matchup. Also if he is 2nd part of his E which is the chain. And it lands he is forced to look at you. Meaning you can ult him for free.”

BCota says “Really annoying since his W heals him back to full along with his insane AP ratios he hurts a lot and can duel really well. Ask for ganks to make it easier on you. Pre-6 freeze wave under tower and poke him he can only Q you . After 6 Use Q+Autos to poke him down all in but make sure to ignite. Tip: your pool denies his healing and puts it on CD”

ThePandaEvan says “Sylas has extreme damage while having a gap closer, which makes him hard to deal with. Trade with him level 1 as Sylas gets a insane power spike level 2-3 since he gets his gap closer and combo. Try to save your E for if he dashes in and try to dodge Sylas's E a lot because if you get hit by it, you lose the trade. You can Q+E him if Sylas misses his E. Make sure to keep your distance so he can't heal. Ignite is a must here.”

grebe1231 says “This matchup is very stat-check heavy as both rumble and sylas have similar gameplans of getting in your face and unloading damage. Because you are playing a melee champion without a dash, Sylas will have an easy time landing his E on you and forcing a fight. If you fall behind early, Sylas' W heal will guarantee he wins any all-ins in the future. Likewise, if you get ahead early, Sylas won't be able to do anything to contest you. ”

Even before then, it is hard for Sylas to kill you due to your W. Just be aware he can send you or your teammates to Death Realm if he wants. (Sidenote: if Sylas uses your ult and you use your ult in the same place, you can have an epic 2v2 in Death Realm.)”

vCraze says “Sylas can be a tough matchup as he has a lot of mobility and is a very strong late game champion. You will need to play the matchup dependant on what runes and items he starts with. If he has fleet with corrupting potion you will struggle to poke him out so just farm up and poke when comet and manaflow are up. If he is running conq with Dorans Ring you can poke him out as he won't have as much sustain so keep this in mind. You want to keep your distance as much as possible and not be in range of his chains as this will cost you a large % of your hp.”

Sadkid says “Sylas lane is usually tame as long as you play towards your own minions. Do not walk up if you don't have minions. Sylas has a hard time hitting his CC in the wave so if he tries to E in stand in the wave and he can't CC you. ”

OxiteoMyst says “Keep ya distance mate, dont get hit by those chains of his. Keep in mind he can yoink your ult. Also his health bar isn't accurate, if he was his W up be careful.

Jamakin12 says “Sylas is a bit of an annoying matchup. He wins extended trades when he is able to poke you with his passive, but you win short trades as long as you initiate it with your Q. He can use your ult better than you can, so beware of that once you reach half health. Sylas' W heals him more the lower health he is, so try to deny him a heal if you are attempting to kill him, unless you have grievous wounds on him. Executioner's is recommended because it reduces his W healing.”
0
Siderman5 says “He is one of the biggest counters of you. It will be a hard matchup, but if you play safe and just farm or roam, you can survive somehow till the endgame, where you won't be so strong, but at least Sylas won't be that strong too, because he only gets really strong if you give him free kills in early or mid game. One thing what you shouldn't forget about him, is that if he steals your ult, he can easily escape from ganks, or roam to other lanes, so focus and ping your team if Sylas steals your ult and goes to roam.”

Lunasta says “Try always to engage, if he engages you you'll take LOTS of damage, and probably die if you're having difficulties against him, don't stay near your tower or else he'll ult you and burst you down, try to waste his mana by pushing the wave and building Grievous Wounds”

Reason97 says “Your ability to poke in lane is a LOT better then his, but his all in is a lot more lethal then your's if he play's smart. Don't give him an easy target for his grab and be careful when he start's looking for an engage, but as long as you do that it should be pretty ok. ”

Aim to bully him from far and then big engage on him with primary ult after you doged his stun(s)”

Yuki H. says “Consider running Conqueror in this matchup, along with buying an executioner's. Though he outsustains you, you have the range advantage as his Q dmg is almost negligible in the early game. He will be constantly looking to E to dodge your Q, then E again onto you to start a trade. Keep in mind you will 9 times out of 10 win all-ins from full HP with executioners at level 6 unless you are far behind. Above all, focus on not dying unnecessarily to ganks and not getting baited by his low health when he has W up, as a fed Sylas is extremely oppressive once he starts ramping up tank stats with seekers/ninja tabis.”

Veralion says “They shunted most of his damage into his Q explosion and E2, so put on your happy feet and keep creeps between you. Play far back until 3, preserve health, then all in and stat check him. He can steal your ult and yeet away once in a while, which is annoying. Transforming gives him your entire kit with fresh cooldowns, but you'll probably kill him before he can make use of them. Sylas does not build to make effective use out of Shyvana's kit, so using your ult against you is actually a really bad idea. It literally just makes him worse. Respect E poke while he's a fake dragon and avoid flame patches. If it turns into a dragon duel, also stay close and rotate around him. He won’t be used to how hard E is to hit at close range and will probably miss. Better dragon wins! If things go poorly and he gets a lead, remember that he has a ton of very high ratios on his kit now, so make sure to respect him. A lot has to go wrong for that to happen, though. ”

Due to sylas's W alone he automatically wins trades aginst you. during laneing phase when you reach level 3 q + auto + w(auto reset to proc elect that eazy) then e the fuck out before he stacks his conq or w when you reach 6 you can look to all in him with your ult and ignite him to stop him from healing from conq and his w he might try to ult you with your ult but you can simply e the fish or the shark sylas scales great in the late game which mean instead of void staff you should be getting morello which has pen health ap and grievous wounds ”

His W provides him a very good healing and remember that he can copy your ult with his ult (if this happens, try to not get caught out of guard and be prepared to dodge).
Keep in mind that your E counters his E, giving him even less chances to engage you.
Overall not an hard matchup, just buy antihealing.
He will be a more serious enemy in late game but you should still be able to shut him down.”

Zoe Sparklepop says “Skill Matchup
He can dodge your ult with his E and W after your burst to heal some back so get some anti heal or adapt to him by seeing if he does it in a burst combo, if he does you can wait for it and then retaliate.
Him stealing your ult isn't THAT good for him but of course better than nothing
Just try to poke him and stay behind minions parallel to him.”

Gageowago says “ So the 10.1 changes to Sylas seem to maybe transition him to more of an all in one shot playstyle. I will have to play against him to determine who wins trades, but his W is no longer a pseudo-execute. You can charm him if he lands his e on you to stop him immediately, but now he isn't self-stunned for nearly as long. Sylas can't hit his only cc through minions so stay behind them after he uses his dash. If he steals your ult and you are low you are dead. Sylas has more dashes than Ahri when he has her ult. I would recommend playing more reactionary and defensive until you learn this matchup better. His main damage now comes from his e hook and passive.”

Lil Tidepod says “Sylas has really low mobility and some terrible range. Stand back from the minion wave and force it under his turret. He won't lose too much farm but it'll be enough to give you a solid lead in items. One thing that's really important is to dodge his grab. It initiates all of his combos. He won't like laning against you because of your ultimate. Try and stop him from roaming so he can't go get other champion's ultimates. I'd do this by staying in lane as much as possible and forcing the wave under his turret.”

DravensBukkake says “TP matchup.
Ever since he got a magic shield, he became too difficult to kill in a 1v1. He has burst damage, healing, shield and gap closers. Doesn't mean its still a win in terms of a matchup though. He can't really kill you, unless he lands his E which is a short range. If he E's, walk back and sideways to try dodge it. If he lands/when in doubt, E away as well. You two both shove fairly equally, and Sylas can setup ganks/skirmish better than you can, and its very difficult to try solo kill him like I mentioned. However, he's still melee. Setup soldiers around minions and give him a difficult time farming. Rush stinger early to match his shove. Be very weary if he steals your ult. If he lands his E gap closer, he can also insec you.”

Mid Win Repeat says “In a lane where the Sylas and Taliyah have equal skill on their respective champions, the Sylas will come out on top. It is possible to stomp him with some jungle help or if you poke him well during lane you can 100-0 with a full combo. Kiting is key on this match up.”

Euphoric Toaster says “Sylas wants to jump on his opponent to get his W and empowered autos off but Heimer counters close range champions by simply out bursting them. If you don't get immediately oneshot by them, you will oneshot them instead. Poke/harass and deny him a lot early since hes melee. Stay behind minions and your turrets so he cant E onto you, but if he does get onto you use the RQ + Q > E > Q > W combo for the most burst against him. If he just goes tank or hybrid tank, pick up an early Void Staff or else he will likely be able to tank your damage and run you over. Morellonomicon is also very good against him, but if you have Ignite already its not a priority. Also, laugh at enemy Sylas players as they fail to use any of your Ultimates correctly.”

Die Sylas E sollte man beim Einsatz, ausklingen lassen, ausser er ist kurz vor dem Tod.”

LyndonK9 says “Sylas is pretty annoying with his shield and healing, but he is melee so auto and poke him. Sidestep his E. Get morello's to prevent his healing.”
0
TotallySugoi says “Extremely bad match-up. Don't stand too close to let him hook to you. This is a matchup where you 100% want to upgrade to morello ASAP due to his ridiculous healing.”
0
Pyrexini Autism says “In my opinion and experiences against Sylas it is a very tricky matchup even tho he has a very small winrate.”

Schmigo says “He can steal your Ultimate so place good daggers and always have your E ready”
0
Yenwai says “his Q and all in potential with E make him a threat with jungle pressure, but if you play to passive hell just steal your R and roam with it witch is VERY bad for your team,
what i recommend is to stay warded on the sides of mid and dance around your minions, staying out of his passives area and using minions to block his E, you need to push while doing this so he cant just clear out your minions, if he tries to hard to engage he will take big minion damage and give you a free trade and maybe even a kill if you have enough minions and silence his W.”

DoABarrellRoll says “He can easily focus Your adc stoling your ultimate
Puede focusear facilmente tu adc robando tu R”

SkinnyDots says “-If he steals your R you just have to R first and let him R and then u just triple Q him -Insane healing tho -Builds Hourglass
”

Bughans says “Meh, he ain't that much of a challenge. Just survive laning phase, and DON'T Get him fed. Your ult is virtually useless to him, so that's a good thing.”
0
Helnakensbrorsa says “Poke with Q and do small trades with electrocute. After lvl 3 you can't win. At 6 you can win if he wastes his W. Otherwise he beats you. ”
0
Best Karth NA says “You win hard early, however if he somehow gets a lead he has high kill potential on you. If he steals your ult, don't be afraid to exhaust him in order to minimize the damage he deals to your teammates. Just try to keep him shoved in early on and build up a cs lead, and then punish him for his roams by keeping the wave shoved. ”
0
AgreeableOtter says “You lose trades early, but you should be able to kill him once you hit 6. Dodge his E Chain with R so he doesn't get to proc aftershock, ignite so his W doesn't heal him as much.
In case he steals your R just wait for him to cast it and throw your Qs behind yourself for nasty damage.”
0
BoopForTheTroops says “He has so much AOE Damage so dodge it or he will destroy you. watch for his stun since its his main combo.”
0
CharmingFeather says “If he steals your ult it is basically playing against yourself, you both have a shield, many dashes, a charm, and knock up. So in other words be very cautious especially about diving.”
0
SmokeyEggs says “Sylas can comeback from losing trades because of his absurd W. Know this by baiting out his E so you can get a good trade in. He can also push lanes as well as you so always outpush and out roam him. Also by stealing your ult, it makes him even way harder to kill.”
0
QueenBrie says “He takes aftershock and fricks you up big time, his tankiness and mobility can be a big bummer when you try and trade with him, just farm in lane and poke him with your Q's whenever he steps in range and roam if you can't solo kill him”
0
xispy420 says “Aftershock sylas is pain in the ass,try to fight him when his aftershock is down or look out for ganks ”
0
AzureArmatt says “Sylas is an interesting champion. Going against him is kind of like fighting yourself once he hit lvl 6. The only way to win against him is to hit your charm when he's vulnerable so you will disrupt his combo and make him and easy target for your spells. In exchange for his "power" he has quite low hp pool so if you land your burst on him when he's 50% HP it should be game over for him most of the time.”

ninjashmon2 says “Sylas is not so much of a counter to Irelia but still he is pretty strong and dangerous.”
0
The Lost Drawing says “Le haces 'counter' en 1 habilidad que se divide en 2; un DASH y su ENGANCHE (si te da), ademas se pone un escudo si te da el enganche se cura (así o mas c*str*s*)
>>> Juega con las runas con la que te sientas mas cómodo
>>> Y no caigas en que tenga poca vida porque se cura mucho con el enganche”
0
ninjashmon2 says “Sylas is not a very big threat to yasuo but is still something. Sylas gets a shield with his E and can stun him with it too. Sylas is a champion that steal other ultimates with his ultimate which is not good for you if you'r up against a Sylas, because sylas can still you'r ult and can use his E to knock you up so he can ult you with you'r own ult.”

Lobex says “aftershock sylas is gg, you have to win by him being REALLY awful or by roaming”
0
Olenka05 says “Care in early. He can kill you on 3rd lvl when played properly.”
0
homeshake says “sylas has extremely good mobility and early game dmg. Suggest playing very safe and using minions to avoid stun at all costs.”
0
SerbianMafia says “Sylas can destroy katarina in lane and in late for sure. His damage and heal is on other level. Try to farm in lane with q and trade only when his w or e is down. ”
0
thedonk says “Avoid his chain after his dash. Make sure he doesn't heal with his W by staying out of range. You don't want to go into melee range with him so fight him using your chains.”

overweight_zoe says “Overtuned champ right now but still not unbeatable. Play the match up as you would vs a Fizz and you'll be fine. ”
0
Jammy158 says “Skill matchup. Sylas's Q slow, as well as his shield and heals are very annoying when you trade. His E is windwallable and it's the only ability to proc his Aftershock rune. You will eventually outscale him.”
0
Jenkinsu says “Harass him, but do not approach. If he dashes towards you run and try to dodge the hook. Chances are you wont make it out alive if he catches you”

lol mid laner says “when he e fall back then run in the get your combo don't get to close or he will do some crazy damage with his w ”

Eli The Bat says “Relatively new champ....
Dont have so much info on laining against him....
All I know is he has a little much sustain so.... be carefull when 1 v 1ing him....”

bryanlaigo.official says “VERY HIGH DAMAGE, CC, ASSASSINATION, AND UTILITY. ESPECIALLY WITH YOUR ULT AT HIS DISPOSAL. CAN BE BANNED IN PLACE OF TEEMO. ”
0
Tipurrs says “You have similar ranges but he has a stronger wave clear. At early levels, harass him with your autos. But be alarmed for his abilities since they have high base damages. His W can heal him by a lot especially if he is very low. Rush Morellonomicon.”

rimzaki says “save ur sanguine pool hims W if he stole ur ultimate it useless for him he hasnt range like u simple lane”
0
Saddest says “Sylas is incredibly tanky, has a passive that allows him to commit to extended trades or just burst you, and a healing ability. However, you can match his dueling if you take Conqueror + Longsword, just make sure to avoid his knock-up. You can also R him if he has not used his healing ability just yet to negate that massive heal it has. The best thing about Sylas, for us, is that your R on him is pretty terrible.”
0
ShokLoL says “Sylas can be annoying, if you reflect E2 you'll pull yourself to him and probably die. Also his gank setup is quite good against immobile mages. You should be able to hold E defensively and W his Q2 or W damage and end up neutralizing.”
0
ShokLoL says “Sylas will depend a lot on what build he's playing. No matter what, dodging the E is very important so normally you want to play inside your creep wave to dodge this. If he's playing electrocute, be very careful of his trades early and focus on playing a bit more cautious and not giving him the room to run you down. If he's playing Conqueror he'll scale better but should be a lot weaker in lane unless the trade is very long. You can consider ignite in this matchup for more kill pressure.”

mitchellgamer12 says “W his W so it goes on full cooldown. Trade hard with him level 1. Care level 2 and level 3 you beat him easy”
0
Zeekar says “Sylas can use your ult SO much better than you, can easily dodge your engage, and outdamages you at all stages of the game. Nice champ riot lmao ”
0
ShokLoL says “Sylas is very strong at trading early so you want to give up the prio. Take boneplating + grasp and do your best to dodge his E2. If Sylas doesn't punish you in the first few levels you should begin to win later in the lane, just don't let him snowball.”

Rambo MasterBaiter says “this dude... can be an easy match up or a pain care to not fight him when he stole your ult ”

zolamalo says “If he gets help from his jungler, the matchup becomes difficult; otherwise, it’s skill-based who comes out on top in a 1v1.”
0
ShokLoL says “Sylas can be difficult because of his high sustain + gank setup. In the 1v1 you should win as long as you dodge his chain. For the most part try keep the wave on your side or in the middle to minimize how far he can run you down.”
0
Chuleex says “Similar to akali matchup, usually hexdrinker rush as sylas has very high damage, if you have problems you can go resolve in runes to get bone plating but you will loose power and cd
you can bait him into tower or combo him if he has no e
sylas are very agressive you can go for w back combo as if you go for standard combo sylas can jump into you
if you feel confident go for d blade start and get him early game, once you have eclipse you can duel better”
