Abilities

Edit

Petricite Burst

Petricite Burst
EFFECT RADIUS:	300

Innate: Whenever Sylas casts an ability, he generate a stack of Unshackled for 4 seconds, refreshing on subsequent casts and stacking up to 3 times.

Unshackled: Sylas' next basic attack gains  125% bonus attack speed and is empowered to consume a stack to whirl his chains around him, which has an uncancellable windup and deals 130% AD (+ 30% AP) magic damage to the primary target and 40% AD (+ 20% AP) magic damage to nearby enemies.

Damage to secondary targets executes minions that would be left below  25 health.

Petricite Burst can critically strike for (75% +  40%) AD bonus magic damage to all targets hit.

Chain Lash

Chain Lash

Magic Damage: 60 / 115 / 170 / 225 / 280 (+ 80% AP) Total Magic Damage: 100 / 175 / 250 / 325 / 400 (+ 120% AP) Minion Damage: 24 / 46 / 68 / 90 / 112 (+ 32% AP) Total Minion Damage: 64 / 106 / 148 / 190 / 232 (+ 72% AP)

• The detonation's effect radius center is placed at the intersection between the chains from the initial cast, meaning a max range cast can create a detonation that reaches further than the chains do.

COOLDOWN:	12 / 10.5 / 9 / 7.5 / 6

Notes

• Abduct counts as an ability activation for the purposes of on-cast effects such as Spellblade and triggering Force Pulse's passive.
• Sylas will not dash to his target if the chains are blocked by spell shield.
• The target will be revealed for 2 seconds if the dash is interrupted.
• Abduct will still apply the knock up if the target is untargetable by the end of the dash.
• This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the start of the cast time.
• Sylas is unable to perform actions while dashing to the target, and becomes able to again after 0.05 seconds of the dash ending.
• Sylas will not dash to the target hit if he is channeling or dashing from a Hijacked ability.
  • Abduct will not apply the knock up when this happens.
  • If the chains connect before a pre-channel cast time is complete then Sylas will dash to the target and the ability will cancel.

Edit

Hijack

Hijack
COST:	75 Mana
COOLDOWN:	80 / 55 / 30
CAST TIME:	0.25
TARGET RANGE:	950
SPEED:	2200
On-Target Cooldown:	200% of target's base ultimate cooldown

Active: Sylas launches his chains at the target enemy champion, gaining a copy of their ultimate ability and revealing them for 0.825 seconds at the start of the cast time. Sylas cannot select the same champion again for a set duration, and can hold the hijacked ultimate for up to 90 seconds, during which he can recast Hijack.

Recast: Sylas casts his hijacked ultimate ability at no cost, scaling based on Hijack's rank and his own statistics.

Hijacked ultimates and abilities that do not scale with  ability power have their  attack damage ratios converted to ability power ratios, scaling with 0.6% AP per 1% total AD, and 0.4% AP per 1% bonus AD respectively.

• Petricite Burst's stack from casting Hijack is given after Sylas receives the Hijacked ability.
• Hijack's per target cooldown is indicated by a ring under recently targetted enemy champions, and is only visible to Sylas and each individual enemy.
• If Sylas casts Hijack on a clone, no ultimate is stolen and the ability will be placed on full cooldown.
  • The same does not occur for champions within a zombie state.
• Clones do not copy Hijack's target cooldown indicator, potentially revealing them to Sylas.
  • Neeko's Inherent Glamour does not hide her personal cooldown indicator, nor does she copy her allies'.

• If the target becomes untargetable, dies, or is too far away or no longer in sight during the cast time, this ability will cancel but does not go on  cooldown nor pay its cost (if applicable).
  • If the same happens when casting an on-target stolen ability, the ability will instead cancel and go on cooldown.
• If Hijack is intercepted by Braum's Unbreakable, Sylas will gain a copy of Glacial Fissure instead and an on-target cooldown will be applied to him.
  • If Braum has an on-target cooldown on him (by being previously Hijacked) upon interception, no ultimate will be stolen.
• Since the copied ability scales based on Hijack's rank, abilities can be copied regardless of their rank.
• Hijack will copy all components of the ability: their passives and actives as well as recast effects. Hijack will not trigger the effects of other abilities unless absolutely necessary.
• Shape-shifting ultimates will transform Sylas into the target's alternate form, replacing his basic abilities and base stats. Namely: Cougar Form, Spider Form, Cannon Form and Dragon Form.
  • Dragon's Descent transforms Sylas' mana, into Shyvana's fury, being able to replenishing it by basic attacking. At the end of the effect, Sylas gains his previous mana.
  • Dragon's Descent does not refresh ability cooldowns upon transforming.
  • Spider Form freezes Sylas' original cooldowns on their current values, causing them to not come off cooldown during Spider Form. ^(bug)
  • Upon transforming back from Cannon Form, Sylas' next basic attack deals Transform Mercury Hammer's bonus magic damage and uses his critical strike animation.
  • Transforming into Cannon Form with more than 2 stacks of Unshackled and then casting Hypercharge will limit its effect until the currently held Unshackled stacks are spent. ^(bug)
  • Transforming into Cougar Form with more than 2 stacks of Unshackled and then casting Takedown will disable Takedown's effect until the buff timer runs out. ^(bug)
  • Permanent transformations last for ~5 minutes or until toggled off.
  • The alternate abilities of transforming champions will cost mana and scale with the ranks as appropriate for the ability (e.g. ranks in R for Nidalee and ranks in Q/W/E for Jayce/Elise).
  • Upon transforming, a Petricite Burst stack will be deducted.
  • Petricite Burst stacks will still be gained from abilities cast in alternate forms, but the stacks are gained independently from the normal ones.
    • If Sylas has both normal and transformed stacks, Petricite Burst will prioritize consuming Sylas stacks before the transformed ones.
• Ultimates comply with One for All rules if an ally is playing the hijacked champion. For example, an allied Darius' Hemorrhage stacks will increase the damage of the hijacked Noxian Guillotine; or an allied Syndra's Dark Sphere will add extra damage to hijacked Unleashed Power as well as producing 3 spheres that she can use.

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.

Free from the kingdom that once imprisoned him, Sylas of Dregbourne marches from Demacia to the Freljord. With every step he takes, he remembers what others have branded him: Mage, Traitor, Kingslayer—names he revels in as he endures the bitter cold, his heart warmed by the fires of rebellion. It will be here, in the icy north, that he will seize the ancient power needed to fuel his revolution…

The disgraced inventor, Sylas, had long harbored a grudge against Polaris and had prepared a special device for this occasion: gauntlets capable of absorbing the Aurora. He'd tested it on Hwei earlier, but now turned his focus to Polaris. Powerless to resist, Senna's power was taken away, to be spread among Sylas, Camille, and Thresh.
