You see the probelm here is Shyv is huge freaking dragon. She attracts too much attention. Taking that out of the picture,she doesn't have any escape mech on her except run run run. I am not saying DPS Shy is bad. I have tried her and her carring potential is beyond believeable. Her armour Shred combined with 6-7 attacks every 2-3 seconds makes her unstoppable in a duel. She has natural sustain and a large dps so she wins almost immediately. But she still reminas squishy. Which is why Melee Dps is not proposed.

While a offensive tank has other features that interest people. Such as the natural sustain combined with a few more makes her a real tanky phenomenon but not only that but she aplies 15% armour shred aoe,700+ damage in 7 seconds AOE and a double hit which hits 2-4 champions randomly.In a team fight depending on your postioning.Now that damage is pretty high for someone who is just tanking for the team.

A DPS Shy is amazing.She doesn't even need boots.The items will just make her a killer on her own.She will easily kill 2-3 champions. But it's very much a risky thing to do. If you have a team that can attacks a lot of attention or hold them down like Amumu,Zyra,Orianna,Gragas or anyone who can do a large hold down then,a dps shyvana,is your linchpin for the game.
