How to play it

✓

Save E for her R

Always hold E for Death Lotus: Sylas's E is your interrupt on her channel, so never waste it in poke.

✓

Your 1v1 window

Look for 1v1s between levels 5 and 9: that's your strongest window, when you can commit and run her down.

✓

Fight before Gunblade

You win the duel while she has no completed Hextech Gunblade: once it's up her sustain and burst flip the fight, so don't stall.

✕

Never use your E before she ults: it's your only answer to Death Lotus.
