When to choose this build?

It is great way to build Sylvana specific for Minion Slayer purposes. It apply on every map where main objective is to kill a big amount of minions, for example: kill spiders to get the gems, get the sculls or horrors sprouts, and if you already have great team you can use this build for crowd control in Blackheart's Bay (Sylvana can be a game changer there).

With this hero build you need team more than ever, but if you can resist running after enemy heroes you'll be fine and you will have great fun with blowing minions up! :D You don't need help with taking camps, that give your team time to clear the lanes or take objectives when enemy team try to deal with mercs.

What you can do?

from 1 lvl you can go for 2 mercenaries as soon as they appear and take them without heal damage - at early game, specially at 1 lvl they are powerful and enemy team will need 2 or 3 players to deal with them. That mean your team will have big advantage on other lanes! How to do this? Change your aim frequently, and use your abilities only on one of them. In 10 sec first merc will be dead and with the other one you can deal easily.

when you get 2 talent you can singlehanded kill 4 merc with little health damage - again merc at early stage are more powerful so run to them as soon as you can.

when you get 3 talent you just walk and every minion just blow up, and you can destroy buildings.

with 5 talent you run and minions vanishes. At this stage you can catch up and gain exp very quick - this is game changer for Blackheart's Bay! Even if you have suicide team member you can run on the map and clear the lanes. You also can take 2 merc camp under 10 sec (all by yourself)!

Greatest threat for Sylvana!

Enemy heroes is very dangerous for you but do not worry you attack from the distance so you'll be fine. Higher range on Hero League you need to watch mini map pretty carefully just to know when to run away and go to clear another lane. Do not pick fight by yourself, you can compete when you get Cold Embrace and you will win for sure when you get Furry of the Storm (soo really far in the game!).

When to choose Assassin build?

You have great team! You have advantage and your team are leveling much faster than enemy team. Go for assassin to win game quickly! If you are type of suicide maniac this is build for you ;)

The advantage!

You need to practice this set up to have most of it! There are many combo combinations that you can use! Teleport not to get away but from one to other side of enemy, and use Q as fast as you can (after "W") and finish golem, boss, or enemy in a blink. Your team can deal with map objectives like taking temples, going after coins or destroying enemies forts while you take care of rest.

Remember to support your team as much as you can. You need to manage! If 2 enemy hero is dead go for camps, boss. But remember that this build is specially to be assassin!

When to choose build For Fun?

You pick your hero in HL and you viewed other players progress... well they or you just start to play HoTS... they clearly have death wish... you are loosing from the early stage... but you still want to win?? Easy enough!

The advantage!

You can still kill minions in a blink, but you can heal like crazy, you can handle enemy hero as long as he stands surrounded with his minions (when you can heal like crazy, remember?). Talents are chosen to heal you, to deal damage to enemy, and to run away with your life if you misread the situation.

You can still kill 2 merc from lvl 1 without any health damage but you need some exercise to do that and that takes more time to do that.
