Shyvana brings the frontline and engage that start the 5v5. Enough Split and Catch sits in the kit to threaten a side lane once the map opens. W (Inferno Aegis) shield scales with bonus HP and grows 30% per nearby enemy champion, then can be recast to detonate for magic damage — dual offense/defense tool.

Dragon form (R) grants displacement immunity on activation dash plus fear damage, and unlocks a heal on W recast instead of the human-form shield-detonate
Q empowers basic attacks on a 2-3 hit cycle culminating in true damage in dragon form, rewarding auto-weaving rather than pure ability rotation
