Sylas the Unshackled
Raised in one of Demacia's lesser quarters, Sylas of Dregbourne has come to symbolize the darker side of the Great City. As a boy, his ability to root out hidden sorcery caught the attention of the notorious mageseekers, who eventually imprisoned him for turning those same powers against them. Having now broken free, Sylas lives as a hardened revolutionary, using the magic of those around him to destroy the kingdom he once served… and his band of outcast mage followers seems to grow by the day.

Sylas Tips

- Sylas has a high rate of healing compared to other champions. They may be good at exchanging hit trades in lane or before teamfights since they can recover through self-healing.
- Sylas has a much higher early late game win rate than their late game win rate. Take advantage of this by playing aggressive early on and trying to snowball through kills.
- Sylas has more magic resistance than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against magic damage type enemies.
- Sylas has more health regen than most champions, making their playstyle optimal for aggressive trades in lane.
