Who this champion beats in lane, and who beats it.Who counters Sylas and who Sylas beats
Sylas is slippery and self sufficient, but he is still a melee champion who has to walk into range to do anything, and his kit runs hot on mana early. Before he gets going he is fragile, and hard crowd control is his nightmare: lock him down the instant he dashes in and he cannot heal with Kingslayer, pull with his E, or steal anything with his ultimate. His chain pull and his dash give him ways in, but they are also his only ways out, so once those are on cooldown he is stuck. To beat Sylas, bring reliable lockdown, out trade his all in before his sustain kicks in, or zone him so hard he can never find a clean engage. When you pick him you are betting on slick timing and good fight reads, so respect anyone who can catch him the moment he commits.
