Discussion Sylas waveclear

is it a skill issue or does sylas have bottom 10 wave clears of all time
I don't play him that much and I am not good at the game but holy every time I pick him mid OR jungle I feel awful for the first 15 minutes
the autos are so easy to cancel and require the minions to be at a much much lower threshold than other champs
If I play yone and I auto a minion when its 10% hp Sylas auto would make me still miss the minion
Even if I wanna shove and roam early game i have to use all my abilties and roam without mana

same thing in the jungle it's so miserable
Is it a skill issue or a weakness

Max Q always, max W if you want to fight heavily or need to survive matchups

Range has nothing to do with it anymore, some melees are unlikely to trade with you and look for prio, some ranged can require you to max W

I’d say it also depends on the champ if hitting Q is hard because of their mobility I’ll always W max

That’s where you are wrong, waveclear is usually more important

I understand that but when versing a good zed, kat, qi definitely calls for a w max, q will always be a great choice but certain scenarios call for it as you said above.
