Viego vs Shyvana

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Viego should leverage his medium early pressure and strong dueling to contest river fights where lanes can assist in securing the first takedown.
Prioritize skirmishes that allow reset chains to snowball into objective control, avoiding isolated fights before item power spikes.

Jungle Plan

Full clear with intent to contest first Scuttle when nearby lanes have priority to enable river control.
Invade and counter-jungle only when you have lane priority and cooldown advantage to punish Shyvana's slower early pressure.
Use resets from skirmishes around dragon or Rift Herald to convert kills into objective control and deny Shyvana's scaling.

Danger windows

Respect Shyvana's early invade attempts before you have lane support or item power spikes; she can punish isolated fights.
Be cautious contesting river fights without vision or lane priority, as Shyvana's (R) displacement and high clear speed enable strong counterplays.
Avoid low-health clears and forced smite fights early where Shyvana's objective control and form scaling can outpace you.

Early game

Start with a clear that positions you to assist lanes with priority to secure the first river Scuttle.
Avoid early invades unless you have lane priority or vision advantage, as Shyvana excels at fast clears and scaling.
Shadow lanes with strong CC to maximize counter-gank potential and secure early takedowns.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) for execute and repositioning; look for skirmishes where you can chain resets to overwhelm Shyvana.
First fighter item completion enhances sustained dueling and reset potential; fight around lanes that can follow up to convert kills into objectives.
Avoid fighting Shyvana before these spikes as she relies on fast clears and dragon form scaling to dominate mid-game.

Win conditions

Use skirmishes with lane assistance to secure first takedowns and trigger reset chains for snowballing.
Translate reset-driven kills into dragon and Rift Herald control by establishing vision and forcing Shyvana off objectives.
Deny Shyvana free farm and scaling by invading safely after power spikes and applying pressure through coordinated ganks and objective setups.
