How to play it

✓

Deny her Q resets

Use your Q to finish the low-HP minions she'd jump to: deny Bladesurge before she can reset it onto you.

✓

Rush early Bramble

Take an early Bramble Vest to blunt her sustain: if she finishes Wit's End you will never kill her 1v1.

✓

Stolen R combo

If you steal her R, cast it then Flash: it resolves where you land for a faster combo.

✕

Never try to 1v1 her without Ignite: she crushes you at level 1 and again once she finishes Botrk.

Sylas vs Irelia in Mid lane is a lane to avoid on patch 26.17. The one thing to respect: deny her Q resets, kill the low-HP minions she'd dash to, or she snowballs straight through you.
