How to beat Syndra

Common role: Mid

A burst mage who stuns you and executes carries from range.

What makes Syndra dangerous

Syndra places spheres (Q), pushes them for a wide stun (E), and her ultimate fires every sphere at once for a point-and-click execute that deletes squishies. Once she has a few items and a stun landed, no carry survives her combo.

How to play against Syndra

• 1Her E stun is the whole combo — side-step it and she has no follow-up.
• 2Don't stand next to her spheres; they are her stun and damage setup.
• 3Buy magic resist and health so her ult can't one-shot you.
• 4Punish her weak, mana-hungry early game before she has her power spikes.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Immobile with no escape — very gankable.
• ✓Mana-hungry; her full combo drains her bar early.
• ✓The E stun is telegraphed and dodgeable.
• ✓Weak, low-pressure early levels.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Syndra's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Trascendente

  Syndra raccoglie Frammenti d'ira guadagnando livelli e danneggiando i nemici che potenziano le sue abilità.Sfera oscura: Syndra può avere una carica aggiuntivaForza di volontà: danni puri bonus.Disperdi il debole: ampiezza aumentata e rallenta tutti i bersagliPotere senza limiti: giustizia i bersagli con poca salute

  Strong: her abilities and ult scale up over the game into true one-shots. Weak: the scaling is slow — punish her weak early game before it comes online.

• Q
  Sfera oscura

  Syndra evoca una Sfera oscura infliggendo danni magici. La sfera rimane e può essere manipolata dai suoi altri poteri.

  Strong: cheap, spammable sphere for poke and combo setup. Weak: a delayed AoE — sidestep it, and note the spheres she leaves for her E.

• W
  Forza di volontà

  Syndra raccoglie e lancia un minion nemico o una Sfera oscura, infliggendo danni magici e diminuendo la velocità di movimento dei nemici.

  Strong: grabs a sphere or minion to throw for extra damage and slow. Weak: needs a sphere nearby — deny the setup and it's a weak throw.

• E
  Disperdi il debole

  Syndra respinge i nemici e le Sfere oscure infliggendo danni magici. I nemici colpiti dalle Sfere oscure sono storditi.

  Strong: a wide stun that is the trigger for her entire combo. Weak: narrow, telegraphed cone — side-step it and she has no follow-up.

• R
  Potere senza limiti

  Syndra bombarda il campione nemico con tutte le sue Sfere oscure.

  Strong: fires every sphere at once for a point-and-click execute on squishies. Weak: needs spheres up and has a cooldown — bait it or itemize MR/HP to survive.

Itemization

Magic resist and health let you eat her ult (Mercury's Treads, Kaenic Rookern, Force of Nature). Dodging E defuses her entire combo.
