Shyvana into Rammusmedium

Overview

Prioritize full clears and path toward dragon when bot and mid lanes have priority to secure objectives.
Track Rammus's early pathing to counter-gank his fast ganks and punish his slow clear speed by invading.
Use your clear speed to trade camps and force Rammus off dragon and Rift Herald after his failed ganks.

Respect Rammus's early invade window when he uses to close gaps and to taunt.
Avoid isolated river fights before your dragon-form as Rammus's hard engage can kill you.
Be cautious during low-health clears or forced smite fights around early dragon to prevent losing tempo or objectives.

Start with a full clear to hit dragon-form and item spikes before Rammus completes his first camps.
Only contest first Scuttle when bot and mid lanes have priority to avoid Rammus's early ganks.
Avoid isolated river fights before level 6 unless you have lane priority or numbers advantage.

Level 6 dragon-form increases your teamfight impact and objective control significantly.
First core items boost your sustained damage, allowing you to overpower Rammus in duels and fights.
Respect Rammus's early + combo until your scaling and form are ready.

Convert your faster clear speed and dragon-form spikes into securing early and mid-game dragons.
Use vision and lane priority to contest or force Rammus off Rift Herald and Void Grubs safely.
Leverage your superior scaling and form-based teamfight presence to control mid-game objectives and deny Rammus carry lockdown.
