Hello Hive Gaming followers, with the new patch, 8 gold dragons have gained importance. In my next post, I will talk about the other powerful dragon Shi Oh Yu, but today's topic is Syfen! This dragon hasn't been in the spotlight since the beginning of the set, but I don't think he was too weak. I had no doubt that he would be the star of this patch and I was right. Let's move on to how the composition plays out.

If you start the game not knowing what to play, and if you have 1-2 bruisers and your augments is suitable, you are in an ideal game to play Syfen. I had a similar start.

The problem you may have with this composition is that you may hesitate about who to give the items to. As a tank you can use Tahm Kench or Skarner in the early game because we will take them out in the late game. You can also give Syfen items to champions like Olaf, Twitch, Ashe, Varus, Ezreal. As you can see, I gave my damage items to Olaf and Twitch and my tank items to Skarner.

Since I was very low on health in this game, I searched a bit at level 7 and found Syfen and Ornn. In this composition, Syfen is our carrier and Ornn is our tank. Syfen's best items are Guinsoo's Rageblade, Bloodthirster, Titan's Resolve. Ornn's best items are Sunfire Cape, Gargoyle Stoneplate and Warmog's Armor. You can give one more Gargoyle instead of Warmog. Since we are playing 6 Bruisers, I think Ornn has enough health.

Keep Syfen's damage in mind. This is only the damage of a level 1 Syfen. Also, the image is very suitable for Syfen's blowing.

It was an achievement for me to be in the top 4 because I had very low health. For this I went to level 8 and spent all my gold. I made Syfen and Ornn two stars and hoped that would carry me through. The final composition is as you can see in the photo below. The champions you need are all bruisers. Yes, you heard that right. This is how a version of the composition plays 😂. Ornn, Tahm Kench, Syfen, Olaf, Shen, Illaoi and Sylas. Augment adds me one bruiser so I could have 8 Bruisers and I thought it would be very powerful.

The battles were actually going quite well and my Syfen had incredible damage. You can see it in the photo below. Still it wasn't enough and I think I came 4th, I didn't take a picture of this one because I didn't think it was worth taking this one. Much better things are waiting for you in my 2nd and 3rd game.

In game 2 we started differently and I gave my damage items to Yone because he had the Mirage buff Pirate Greed. For those who don't know, this Mirage buff turns into a different trait every game and when he becomes a Pirate he gives you gold at the end of each round.

Then I took Xayah, who you can see in the photo, and gave her the item because I thought she would be stronger this way.  I would also like to talk a little bit about the augment. Verdant Veil makes your champions immune to crowd control effects for the first 15 seconds. Since we don't give Quicksilver to Syfen, it works very well in this composition.

At level 7 I was lucky to find Syfen and Pyke, so I transferred the items to Syfen and started accumulating gold.

I accumulated enough gold to get to level 8. Then I searched a little bit and made Syfen 2 stars. Whisper came from Augment and I became 6 Whisper 6 Bruiser with Pyke. From here on, it turned into an incredible winning streak.

Look at my 9 win streak and Syfen's damage 😎.

I was in a very strong position and I got to Level 9. I put a Soraka on the ground to refill the dwindling health of the champions and myself. Let's also update the highest damage that Syfen hits 😎.

Here is the result of this match. A great first place!

Let's move on to the 3rd and most awesome game. At the beginning of this game I didn't know I was going to play Syfen so I didn't record it. Very early in the game I found a Bard and Bard's ultimate allows you to find more valuable champions. As you can see, I have a 15 game win streak and 100 health!

Thanks to an augment called Pandora's Bench, my 3 rightmost champions on the bench are transformed into other champions of the same value. You can see how close I am here.

And boooom! Look at this! 3 STAR SYFEN!

I forgot to record the first battle because I was watching him, but look at the damage he did in the last battle. I made a dragon 3 stars for the first time and Syfen hit 12500 damage in one hit 😱. It was really the most epic thing I've ever seen and I wanted to share it with you. ![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmdtkGgrNFMNhYguA42u4SvnUpcUTHFididRSEjFHtbJPX/syfen_3_4.png)


I won this match also thanks to Syfen. Here is the screenshot:
