@Riot - Just a quick Syndra suggestion?
I have loved Syndra since I first played her. I have always had quite good success with her, although I don't play her much in ranked since she isn't extremely viable in this meta (or I'm just bad). Anyway, these recent passive changes (at least to her Q anyway) are not good. I like the new W passive, my only issue is the Q. That loss of 15% damage is just brutal. I know the AP ratio is getting buffed, but I still don't think it brings it in line properly. However, I have a suggestion that I'd just like some feedback on. I don't know if it will actually be a viable thing.
For her E (Scatter the Weak), it seems that even if it isn't used for a stun, it's always semi useful even for the knockback. It might not be a strong power buff, but I think it would make her more fine and strategical to play if it would be possible to make it do extra/bonus damage to a target that a sphere actually hits. That way it might be used to actually hit a stun and get rewarded for it, instead of the "waste away" it is sometimes used for just to escape.
May not be the best idea, I just thought I'd throw it out there and try to get some feedback.
