How to Counter SHYVANA "The Half Dragon"

SHYVANA is a melee fighter who skill particularly well in attack speed, her play style revolves on unsticking to a target and destroying it's health bar. Also she turns into a dragon.


Let talk about her abilities.

Shyvana's passive is FURY OF THE DRAGONBORN

Shyvana gains armor and magic resist (doubled in Dragon's Descent Dragon Form).



Shyvana's first ability is TWIN BITE
ACTIVE: Shyvana's next autoattack will strike twice in one swift movement. The second attack will deal physical damage equal to a percentage of her total attack damage. Both attacks will trigger on-hit effects.

DRAGON FORM: Twin Bite will damage all units in front of Shyvana when she uses her next autottack instead of just her target. Each unit hit will both trigger on-hit effects and grant FURY twice.
Shyvana's autoattacks against non-structures reduce the cooldown of Twin Bite by 0.5 seconds.

Shyvana's second ability is BURNOUT
ACTIVE: Shyvana surrounds herself in flame for 3 seconds, dealing magic damage to enemies within 162.5 range each second and gaining bonus movement speed. The bonus movement speed decreases by 15% of its original value per second.

DRAGON FORM: Shyvana now scorches the earth where she walks, leaving a trail of fire for 5 seconds that will continually deal the same magic damage per second to enemies that pass over it.
Shyvana's autoattacks extend the duration of Burnout by 1 second, to a maximum of 4 extra seconds.

Shyvana's third ability is FLAME BREATH
ACTIVE: Shyvana unleashes a fireball that travels in a line, dealing magic damage and marking enemies hit for 5 seconds. Basic attacks against marked enemies deal bonus magic damage equal to 2% of their maximum health (max. 100 vs. monsters).

DRAGON FORM: Flame Breath engulfs all units in a cone in front of Shyvana.

Shyvana's Ultimate ability is DRAGON'S DECENT 
PASSIVE: While in Human Form, Shyvana passively generates FURY every 1.5 seconds. Shyvana's basic attacks generate 2 FURY, even in Dragon's Descent Dragon Form or against structures.

ACTIVE: Shyvana transforms into a dragon and dashes to a target location. Enemies along her path take magic damage and are pushed toward her target location.

While in Dragon's Descent Dragon Form, Shyvana's FURY decays at a rate of 5 per second. Once her FURY is depleted, she will return to her normal state. Dragon's Descent has no cooldown or initial cost but can only be activated when Shyvana has 100 FURY.


The Question is, How will you counter SHYVANA? If you want an early game or if you really want to defeate shyvana in solo lane?, try pick some fighter champions. Or if you think that game is so long?, try to pick some champions that has an health base damage ability.

Here are the champions I think can counter Shyvana in solo lane (One on One) or in team fights.

First is RENEKTO "The Butcher of the Sands"

Second is JAX "The GrandMaster at Arms"

Third is a Champion that has Health base damage

VAYNE "The Night Hunter"

NOTE: Only a suggestion, you can use all the champions you want or to counter SHYVANA at the solo lane. (It depends on your game skills and your game style.)

Next champion to counter: ANY League of Legends Champion (Just wait for it)
