There is so much hate for Syndra

It's just funny seeing all of these posts regarding players' displeasure of playing against Syndra. Once Worlds Tournament ends for a while, the complaints will not cease but simmer down.

Eh, she is still decently strong and annoying to play against. Except that applies to a good chunk of the roster. And she's just the most prominent one due to appearing in LCS play at the moment. There's always a champion or few like this.

It was Azir a few years ago. A few weeks/months before Syndra was Viktor. Zac's another prominent name at the moment. Janna's anothe- oh wait supports obviously can't be OP kappa People will always cry.

I think shes fair as shes immobile and needs to be able to nuke people.

I just dislike how easy it is to score a kill with her R + ignite.. Its literally no counterplay except dont be in range ever because ignite + her R will do like 500-600 by itself at lvl 6

Her R by itself won't ever kill you unless you're low health already.

In a way, it's like Veigar. Sure, they can both point-and-click delete you if you're low health and they have their ultimate. Their ultimate alone will almost certainly not kill you.

Also, in order for them to set up their burst in the first place, they need to get a few things in place and land more or less their entire combo, which relies heavily on them landing their stun.

Syndra with her E or whichever one it was (forgot the key) and Veigar with his E. After that, they unload the rest of their combo, finishing with ultimate for the kill.

In both cases, getting MR or QSS or Banshee's severely cramps the amount of freedom they have.

yeah it wont kill you by itself but her R + Ignite will easily do 50% of your health alone by point and clicks.

I think thats why she snowballs so hard, because if you get poked just a few times by her Q or some autos she can all in you without really being able to miss you know?

id rather fight syndra than fizz anyway

She may not have a dash but shes still more mobile than others since she can cast while moving. So she can kite better than most mages due to not giving up ground to fight back along with self peel in her w and e.

Maybe because people who make anti-syndra posts get immediately downvoted and now that shes actually brought to attention people can have an opinion without getting flamed..>???

I didn't say she's OP or not, I'm pointing out a fact.

I'm not saying that she isn't annoying to play against. She's always been annoying. People complained about her before and always will. The difference right now is that, just like Nep2une said, she is seen more due to LCS right now. Kinda explains why there is a sudden increase in 'bitching.'

actually she is the most picked mid laner with a pretty decent ban rate as well. It isn't entirely because of the LCS.

cuz a champ with a win rate of 48.65% is broken

That absolutely broken WR by game length tho, clearly she needs nerfs. /s

oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votes

lol right

Catastrop1 votes

I just know half the people complaining are picking champions who she's strong against while the rest are the dumbasses who decide to stick around in lane at low hp while we're level 5.

As a biased Viktor main I will never stop complaining, at least some new Syndra players are just a free lane.
