[Gameplay] Syndra movement

So this has been a thing for a while but at some point when I move command Syndra she does this jitter step like she wants to walk another way than what I'm clicking. For instance, if I'm roaming towards top side from mid lane, and I'm clicking up the river, she will turn left and right consistently. She feels buggy when moving in general. This also happens when walking back wards (towards your own turrets) and going mid to bot lane. It happens everywhere after the first few mins of the game. It doesn't feel smooth and make her feel clunky.

This bug has been in for over a year and I don't know why anyone else is talking about it. It can get you killed, it can screw up pathing during teamfights. Take -5 of her base MS and you have her actual MS.

Syndra has tons of these bugs that can be game deciding but judging by how little Riot cares about Syndra I doubt she will get any bugfixes anytime soon.

I thought I was just consistently laggy.

Didn't know it was a proper issue.

Lol, it's called the stutterstep bug, it especially occurs after ulting. One of the many bugs Syndra has, including one where her balls don't interact properly with her other abilities (being unable to second cast W when u hold an orb/minion, E not stunning, E not even pushing the ball, W not picking up the orbs at all (rare). I don't necessarily think it's cuz Riot doesn't care, because she kinda regularly does have bug fixes, some of which i've never experienced myself. But the nature of her orbs and kit makes her proclivity to bugs relatively high, for all we know there might be internal tests trying to rectify it, but either don't work... or cause even more bugs.
