@Myself v1.0: "Her W damage hardly scales, while any damage from E doesn't scales at all with anything that she builds"

Her W scales incredibly well with levels and AD, it's part of why Blade of the Ruined King is commonly picked up on her and justified (all of it's stats can be put to use), and even if it didn't scale well with AD, her E and W wouldn't even need to scale with anything but levels, they do incredibly high base damage already.

"This is something that works for anyone, not just Shyvana. And please, the only reason for not picking an aggresive top is just that either you're too sheepy to break the meta or you are just too afraid of use them when they still work"

It doesn't work for everyone, it works for tanky tops, the tankier you are the better use you make of tanky masteries, that's why Wu, Jax and many others are taking a time out. But you're right, every player and their grandmother, pros included, are mistaken for taking tanky tops these days, and Riot's recent nerfs on tank Rengar and Nasus are coming out of nowhere (even though everyone totally foresaw nerfs). Also, Shyvana's recent love tap nerf didn't exist, and any future ones for her and Mundo ... don't say I didn't tell you so. I played Wu for two years, fighting Renekton was very hard before, now it's borderline impossible (either way it has gotten harder). But all these Mundos, Renektons and Shyvanas in the European LCS? What idiots those pros are, do they not even know that Shyvana isn't that overbearing top! It seems to me like your assessment of Shyvana is incongruous with what basically everyone else is thinking and saying (she's heavily picked, commonly insta-locked and a near perma-ban, as well as a tournament mainstay atm), which isn't to say you're wrong, but it doesn't lend credence to your argument either.

"Da fuq? So firstly you claim that she has sustain and that it is problematic, then you say that she doesn't needs it and that it is irrelevant?"

I never claimed that she has sustain, I said she has high sustained damage (that is, low cooldown, spammable damage), that's something very different.
