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
TranscendencjaSyndra otrzymuje Odłamki Gniewu za zwiększanie poziomu i zadawanie obrażeń wrogom, co ulepsza jej umiejętności.Mroczna Kula: Syndra może przechowywać dodatkowy ładunekSiła Woli: Dodatkowe obrażenia nieuchronne.Precz, Słabeusze: Zwiększona szerokość i spowalnia wszystkie celeWyzwolona Moc: Wykańcza cele z niskim poziomem zdrowia.
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
Mroczna KulaSyndra przywołuje Mroczną Kulę, która zadaje obrażenia od magii. Kula pozostaje w grze. Można nią manipulować innymi mocami.
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
Siła WoliSyndra podnosi i rzuca Mroczną Kulę na wroga lub wrogiego stwora, zadając obrażenia magiczne i spowalniając prędkość ruchu wrogów.
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
Precz, SłabeuszeSyndra odrzuca przeciwnika i Mroczne Kule w tył, zadając obrażenia od magii. Przeciwnicy trafieni Mrocznymi Kulami zostają ogłuszeni.
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
Wyzwolona MocSyndra bombarduje wrogiego bohatera wszystkimi swoimi Mrocznymi Kulami.
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.
