This is NOT THE BUFF SYNDRA NEEDS.

What the fuck riot? I know you're trying to kill tanks in EVERY SINGLE WAY POSSIBLE, but syndra doesnt need TRUE DAMAGE. The E buff is really nice, however, this buff to the Q is just horrid! She doesn't need true damage, she needs lowered mana costs at early levels! She doesn't do much in late game, and she used to be oppressive as a lane bully, but goddamn if your jungler doesnt give you blue you get like 4 spells before you're out of mana! I understand you need some way to gate her, but we don't need more goddamn true damage in this game.

It's 15% of your Q. It's not going to do much against fully stacked tanks.

I think its a cool change.

She is supposed to be this ever growing stronger character with unlimited and dangerous potential. What better way to express that in-game then to suddenly get true damage on your balls once you've maxed them? It's a way cooler looking buff then just getting some boring extra damage.

It's a midgame power boost. Obviously it's going to hurt tanks midgame, but once they stack health in the late-game it won't hurt as much (since it's not %hp true damage, thank Jesus).

As a Syndra main, I'm actually just fine with this. I've been calling for them to give her mana costs some love for a while now. However, her level-9 power spike is very strong, and I don't mind them taking the approach of "yeah, your early game is a bit rough (mana-wise, anyway), but if you play it right you'll spike hard in the mid-game and also not fall off so much late."
