Shyvana Jungle guide
Shyvana jungles as a farm-and-fight champion: Emberstrike (Q) strikes an area and can be recast, Inferno Aegis (W) shields her with movement speed before detonating nearby, and Molten Burst (E) explodes on large targets and slows them. Dragon's Descent (R) is her only gap-closer, transforming her into a Dragon that sends enemies fleeing along her path and empowers all three basic abilities.
The build
