It's also worth noting that she's primarily used for her high damage output and fast jungle clears while not requiring mana as a resource - this lets her counterjungle and put pressure on lanes earlier than most other junglers and not have to return as often.
She particularly punishes slow junglers like Nautilus in the early levels, where she can clear her own jungle something like 20 to 40 seconds faster than them. She's also faster-moving than most other champions at early levels with her speed boost and her ult makes for a really good disengaging tool if she gets caught off guard.
I've tried Several trees with Shyvana. Full AD, AD pen, Move Speed + ADand/orAD pen. She's just good on all grounds. Flash can get her infornt of baddies escaping and push them back to the team, and exhaust slows them for chasing. All in all, she's amazing for the lack of cc she has, I can only laugh at people who think she has little/no Burst damage and does 0 Damage. Maxed Q with Attack speed makes her so destructive it's a joke. She also can hard counter nunu in the jungle if played correctly and has been tournament proven.
fyi, you inspired me to buy Shyvvy and play all sorts of games with her and test out different rune pages. You made me want to be a jungler now. You goob.
