E has good flat damage scaling per level while Q has no flat damage scaling but it increases AD scaling on second strike . Since you dont build ad on shyv unless its some gimmicky build maxing q is mostly worth only for cd reduction which synergies well when building attack speed as it reduces cd even further making it very spammable skill and good with borkbloodrazor . On burst builds your attack speed is quite poor so you cant abuse the short cd of q and maxing e ends up being better just for flat damage it gives . <| sep |> You might be joking , but people have told me they perceived me as a killer or hitmandepending on what I was wearing that day . I guess when you combine stoicism , cynicisim , skepticism , and sprinkles of misanthropy , it ' s hard to pass off as a salesman or model or something .
