And now she will deal shitload of true damage, stun easier to land and kill switch willl have longer range.
Im telling you here and now she will be insane overpowered if this goes through.
LoLKiru3 votes"Syndra can press R to kill a carry"
With 6~7 spheres maybe (assuming we're talking actually 100 --> 0'ing them with ONLY her ult) and an pretty decent amount of lategame AP. If she softens them up first then she can do it much easier but then, i don't see a problem with that; blowing her ult to kill a single person after having already damaged them seems balanced to me.
DFG was what made Syndra's ult crazy, it allowed her to lower the number of spheres to kill with it (in addition to lowering your hp even further).
Worth noting that Syndra's Q will probably only do anything significantly different to tanks. Most squishies won't notice it since they seldom build defenses until much later on (and even then its usually only 1 item), and Syndra would already have the flat pen + void staff required to break that MR anyway.

True damage buff was needed for tanks. She is weak as hell against them. E buff looks better.
She still doesn't have a passive until she is 9 level.
BakedLotion2 votesHer stun isnt getting buffed tho. It's just the cone. To stun, you need the sphere to hit them not the cone.

You will be downvoted because most of the boards are populated by low-elo players who can't play syndra... but yeah pretty sure Riot dev team has been smoking crack for the past 2 weeks
Boomerangbro1 votesHe is being downvoted because he is against Syndra seeing the competitive scene. She needed this buff because she's horribly weak against tanks. Everyone knows how to counter Syndra and this buff will help her see play past her miserable pick rate.

Syndra didn't need a buff but thank you for the silver V insight
Boomerangbro1 votesYou're funny. "She didn't need a buff". Even though I've played my fair share of Syndra I know for a fact that there are better picks than her. She's mana reliant and heavily relies on winning the laning phase to get to her passive quicker. Once laning phase ends she is very vulnerable to high mobility mages and assassins and is particularly weak to tanks. Being an immobile mage she offers very little and many players don't want to take the risk of playing a high skill cap champ and not having it work out. That's why her pick rate is in the bottom of the barrel of champions.
Too bad I actually give reasoning behind my justification of her buffs while you just complain and use rank to back up your non-factual evidence.
But... that's none of my business.
PiVoRx1 votesIm not against Syndra seeing competitive scene, im against Riot approach to the issue with balancing. Instead of nerfing things like Ahri, Zed, Viktor or Fizz to make other champions viable, they randomly buff another midlaner like we have not enough shit to ban already.
Boomerangbro1 votesLet me ask you something. How many Syndra's do you see running around each game? Ok, now let me ask you this. How many Syndra's will you see after this buff? It's like if Galio got true damage added to his maxed resolute smite. You still won't see a lot of him even though his R can 100-0 an adc.
Now let's see. Press R to delete carry. Late game with 6 or 7 spheres maybe. Let's not forget that she needs setup unlike someone like Veigar or Annie who can just pop ult and delete you as well. Not to mention her ult range SUCKS pre-max rank. If you get deleted as an Adc by a Syndra ult, you got outplayed. You have to LET her walk up to you and press her ult. By then she should have been deleted because you could have shot her with 4 to 5 basics which is more than enough to kill her.
Also, does the phrase "immobile mage" mean anything to you. You can get deleted by Ekko, and Fizz and Riven and theyre all fine, yet they all have mobility. When Syndra gets a mid-game buff, she suddenly becomes overpowered. Watch her blow up when your team's master yi or rengar jumps her.
Now. AOE stun. We must be thinking of a different champion, cause the Syndra I play, has a cone knockback with a line stun with a sphere applied. Granted, you can get off a 4 or 5 person stun if the enemy team is stupid enough and let's you walk right up to them and let's you get all your spheres in place. No, she'll be deleted by the team her set up is complete.
15% true damage at max rank. This will only show against tanks. How many times are you playing Zed or Viktor mid against Syndra and think. I should get a crap ton of magic resist! You don't. You'll only see a slight increase of damage and more against heavy tanks. And we're talking about mid game power. She doesn't just start out with 15%, she has to earn it, granted you haven't already killed her a million times because she's as easy to camp as it is to count to three.
And, insane range? Hmm, from what? Her W. Syndra is close range and must be close range to get everything in place. Her stun is close range. Her ult is close range. Where is this delete carry from across map idea coming from?
She's not overpowered, she'll just see maybe a 5% increase in play.
PiVoRx1 votesSyndra is unpopular cause why should you pick her if you got something like Ahri for insane safety level or Vitkor for even more insane damage.
Instead of buffing random champ to increase ammount of shit we have to ban, why Riot wont nerf champions like Ahri to make a room for others?
SwapShadows1 votesWhy are people downvoting you? the same people downvoting are going to be the same people bitching if she ever becomes popular again.
sheep.
IcyPepper1 votesPeople aren't sheep if they have opinions.
If people upvoted this guy, would you still be calling them sheep? Or are you calling people sheep because they disagree with your(?) and OP's opinion?
SwapShadows1 votesNo they are sheep because this is the same thing that happened last time.
Syndra was considered the THE high skillcap champion in league until she got a few buffs and apparently after seeing some LCS play this forum was filled with bronze/silver tears.
