Sylvanus throws a seed to a target location. If it hits an enemy they will take damage, lose Protections, and become Rooted.

Items

Item 1#

Shoes of focus tend to be the best pick early game because They give you a good bit of power and plus the cool-down which is essential early game but if you are trying to be more tanking Reinforced Shoes.

Item 2#

This item needs to give you some protection just as a early off item. I suggested Hide of the urchin because it is a solid item early off that give you a lot of protection early on.
Magis Blessing is another good pick against gods with Hard cc abilites ginvining a chance to escape..
Spirit Robe is also another good choice against good like Nox who have high damage cause of a hard cc combo ability and also gives you additional cool-down reduction.

Item 3-4#

This item is a combo for physical defense items and magical ones
You want to pickONEPhysical and ONE Magical
Lotus crown for the extra protection for teammates
or legion helm for the extra power
Then either
Stone of binding for the buff on your team or
void stone not suggested unless fight against a heavy magical team

Item 4# non-specialized

Just pick any two of these for a nice neutral time
Pick Mantle of Discord if you need a stun for when you get low
Pick Spirit Robe if lots of cc
Pick Magi's Blessing if tons of hard cc
Pick Hide of the Urchin for medium defense

Item 5#

This Item is used to give much needed cool-down on your abilities.
Chronos' pendent gives you some damage, Mana regeneration, and 20% coll-down reduction. its a solid 3rd item.
Stone of Fal is a item that will be used in more of a bruiser item. It is not recommend
unless your playing joust or arena.

Rod of Asclepius

ITS GOOD OK
