So i've made a decently annoyed comment in the patch notes post about shyvana bugs, and i was told to make a full post, so here we are, please excuse me for bad formatting, i'm not used to this.
Why am i relating this to Kayle and Urgot? Well since the release of the new lethal tempo keystone (which sounds really synergistic on a champion that has so much onhit and an aa reset double attack) plenty of champions have tried it and realized that some parts of their kit doesn't work as you would think, examples here are kayle waves and urgot shotgun knees. but these are not the only ones, shyvana W does additional onhit damage to people closeby her. During Dragonform and with lethal tempo fully stacked, you can attack enemies without them taking the w onhit damage. Add to this a rapidfire cannon, and enemies can even be out of your Dragonform q 2nd hit range
Speaking of lethal tempo, did you know humanform Q gives 2 stacks while Dragonform always only gives 1 no matter how many opponents get hit?
At least the w onhit still works vs secondary targets
While we're already here, let's talk about Shyvana Q which might be intended to work this way, but if that is truly the case, then she needs a qol fix
Shyvana Q interactions | Humanform | Dragonform |
---|---|---|
Pets | 2 hits | 1 hit |
Escaping Champions | 2 hits | 1 hit |
Wards | 2 hits | 2 hits |
Still standing champions | 2 hits | usually 2 hits |
This works on all "pets that don't count dmg, but number of aa's" like teemo shrooms, gp barrels, nidalee and jhin traps and so on...
as a person who has ~1200 shyvana games over the past couple seasons and someone who has hit masters on Euw playing her toplane, i really don't understand why her Dragonfrom Q has to be a downgrade from her humanform Q most of the time when her ulti states that the ability would be empowered. at least make dragonform Q functionally similar to humanform Q on the main target.
Oh also a special treat for those who survived my post this long, Shyvana Dragonform Q not consumed on missed lasthit with no other aa targets nearby, the empowered attack does 0 damage afterwards.
Shyv has also a serverdependent bug, where casting Dragonform E right when she transforms back to human form on a server tick has her humanform E cooldown reset.
Also if there are any redditors with all mordekaiser skins on EUW, i wanna figure out what skin combinations of Shyvana /Morde skins produce visual vomit when dragonform shyvana presses w in mordekaiser r, i wanna get some footage from that to the masses.
Edit1: thanks to /u/Ronizu we also have the following:
You can recover up to like 80 fury instantly if you recall after ulting
Your ult can fail to either not deal damage, not knockback, or both (Neither on Xerath, damage only on Cait)
Q is also is bugged with Hail of Blades
the E cooldown reset bug
Edit2: Krakenslayer appears to be the one on-attack effect, that for some reason does work with her Dragonform Q
i also tested rageblade, Kircheis shard and Phantom Dancer
Edit3: Krakenslayer interaction seems to be intentional as it is supposed to be an on-hit effect excluded by rageblade for melee. also only bug from the Edits that has any connection with the Q & W interactions i deem to be problematic is the Hail of Blades bug.
