And we are talking about Sylas, a magic-based fighter that can steal his enemy\u2019s ultimate ability. Once a part of Demacia\u2019s Mageseekers, Sylas was thrown into jail after killing three people when he accidentally stole a young mage\u2019s magic. Now that he is free from bounds, his goal is to bring down Demacia, the kingdom he once served. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">As 2019\u2019s first champion, we\u2019re going to break down Sylas\u2019 skill kit and give you some tips on his gameplay:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Gameplay<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">[youtube https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=R39h3RhBVAM&amp;w=560&amp;h=315]<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">As a mage-fighter, Sylas can continuously use magical attacks to pummel his enemies with shackles. He can beat down his enemies using his skill, Chain Lash, repeatedly. He can then follow it with a basic attack to activate his Petricite Burst. His ability Abscond, on the other hand, works best in eluding enemies or gank. He can then turn the tides of battle by choosing a target enemy to hook and attack with Abduct, then use a crushingly strike with Kingslayer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Once Sylas have reached level 6, his gameplay turns to a whole new level. Using his ultimate ability, Hijack, he can steal the power of his enemies and use it for his own good. Later in the game, it will be easier for Sylas to seize the ultimate skills from his foes, and use it against them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Items (Source from LoL Wikia)<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Standard Item Build<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight:400;text-align:left;\"><b><i>Starting Items: <\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Doran\u2019s Ring, x2 Health Potion<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight:400;text-align:left;\"><b><i>Trinket: <\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Warding Totem<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight:400;text-align:left;\"><b><i>Late Game Items:<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight:400;\"> Sorcerer\u2019s Shoes, Luden\u2019s Echo, Void\u2019s Staff, Lich Bane, Rabadon\u2019s Deathcap, and Zhonya\u2019s Hourglass<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Strategy<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight:400;text-align:left;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">When using Sylas, make sure to optimize his passive skill by weaving in basic attacks after casting his abilities simultaneously. Use this tip to harass the enemy and take the upper hand on your lane.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight:400;text-align:left;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">When using your ultimate ability, Hijack, make sure to choose the skill ideal for the situation. Choose whether you should prioritize crowd control or go in for the kill by picking a brutal finishing mood.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight:400;text-align:left;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Remember that you can\u2019t Hijack the same enemy champion a while after you\u2019ve taken their ability, so strategize before stealing your enemy\u2019s ults. The key to playing Sylas is learning how to plan, pick, and use the right ultimate skill on your enemies at the right time.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>***<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\"><span style=\"font-weight:400;\">Want to try the tips we gave you?
