Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Ziggs, ranking 34th (versus 60th for Sylas) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.5 versus 2.1) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Sylas player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Ziggs player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
