You know, I hope it's not a massive rework. I hadn't played shyvana at all until she was free last week, and I like her a lot as she is now. Maybe she's a little weak overall, but that can be fixed with number tweaking. She's one of the best 'control' junglers due to her quick movement speed and fast clear times. She can go counter jungling and steal a bunch of shit, and generally get away if spotted once she's lvl 6. Her ult is up pretty quick if you keep farming. She's not the best ganker or dueler, but that's ok. If you just straight brawl with everything off cooldown, in the right order, she does deceptively good damage though.Anyway, the rework I am looking forward to is Shyvana which should be coming soon.
She was considered a top tier jungler in season 2. Not sure what happened exactly, but supposedly some item changes in season 3 ended up marginalizing her,You know, I hope it's not a massive rework.

Really, maybe a tiny bit of cooldown reduction at her early ranks of skills and she'd be viable again imo. And/or, a little slower on her fury decay when she's in dragon form.
I'll chalk this up to a coincidence, but 3 games in a row this last week, shyvanna jungle carried on the enemy team. She got huge in all and won it.She was considered a top tier jungler in season 2.

IMHO she's still very good. Most likely some pro said she sucks now with the end result being that sheeple follow suit and end up dropping her. She hasn't received any nerfs that I know of since the day she was considered top tier, and I can't think of any S3 item release that could honestly take her from top pick all the way down to bottom.I'll chalk this up to a coincidence, but 3 games in a row this last week, shyvanna jungle carried on the enemy team.

Ya I was thinking if they gave her a small amount of CC, probably not hard CC, but something like her twin bite or flame breath having a small amount of slow on it or something she would be in a better position. As is now if the lane your jumping doesn't already ahve some CC for you the enemy team just backs out.The changes to jungle camps (stacking HP on the big mob) is what ruined her. She had the fastest clear in the game when AE was the king of jungle camps and could use that to counter/bully the enemy jungle big time. Now she just has no CC and a limited gap closer and will remain irrelevant until they change her or the jungle.
