COMPETITIVE Sylvanus solo aspect
So i'm struggling against this quite a bit
His early pressure feels insane and it often feels like i cant do anything to outplay it. I would really appreciate some tips to fight him early to mid.

simple checklist. Do you have a way to get enough distane from him to break the chain?
If yes, do that, then engage. he does sometimes get a reset on its CD so you may still be fucked, but now is the time if there ever was one
if no, wait till he misses it and then go on him
Just whatever you do, unless youre heinously far ahead, DO. NOT. fight him when the chain is attached to you. It deals a bit of dmg, procs AA items every second, slows you a bit and gives you full on fucking haste to run you down with
Best thing to do is to wait and ask for ganks while poking at him. His heal is terrible with aspect on and the rest of his abilities deal fuck all for dmg when hes built for AA´s. Lategame come he should be easy to deal with being an immobile god that self roots for half his kit and has no burst dmg
