Rioter Yelough’s Comments About Shyvana on Discord

Honestly, the way Rioter Yelough talks about Shyvana in those Discord screenshots is just pathetic. It really feels like this guy has never actually played League.

This rework is being built around the wrong premise. Shyvana is NOT a diver.
Her design should be approached as a juggernaut, not a diver.

At this point I’d honestly rather wait another 4 years if that’s what it takes to do it properly. In the meantime, just do a mini-rework similar to the Wild Rift version so she at least feels better to play.

Then take the time to develop a proper rework from scratch.
Scrap this current gameplay direction and only keep the visual update, because the design direction right now is terrible.
