Regarding Syndra

Now, I have to make an assumption about the new empowered W before making the statement I am about to make. So keep that in mind.

Syndra will do 3 times the W damage if she hits her opponent with 3 spheres.

If this is true, all I see is a redistribution of the damage she will do in a fight, if not even more damage than live Syndra. Yes, her maxed Q will deal less damage but think of it as with . Ori's Q doesn't deal a lot of damage but it only enables her W which in fact will hurt a lot.

With the E cooldown buff I guess Riot wants us to max Q > W > E instead of Q > E > W, which makes a lot of sense because W is incredibly hard to land as a stand alone ability but once you stun your target, you have access to immense damage. Before, when you didn't have your ultimate up, there was no danger for the opponent after being stunned because all that was coming for him was a crappy slow with little damage compared to what he already took in terms of damage before getting stunned.

I also see a bigger variety of combos you can chose from when dueling your opponent. Q+R+E+W not only gives you the great AOE stun you had with old Syndra anyway, but also gets enough spheres out in a short period of time to get the maximum damage out of your W.

If I had to guess, Syndra's playstyle will be a little less about spamming abilities constantly (due to the E having only 1 point until late into the game) and more about bursting and getting out your damage as quickly as possible.

I felt like I had to address this because Syndra's update seems to be the second most hated after Viktor's.
