Syndra feels .... meh ?

I played Syndra since her release. I've played her when she was as bad as yorick, I played her when she was building muramana, I played her when she was pick or ban, and I played her when people forgot she existed. I was happy to hear that she was getting something from this mid year update, but after finally playing her she feels rather unchanged.

Sure now you can ult with 7 to 8 balls, but that is useless since people were already dying from her 6 balls ult. Her Q dmg is pretty much the same, her clunky W got one of those useless gimmicks everyone seems to be getting lately and I'm not even sure they changed her E ? And let's be honest, a passive that is only somewhat of use when you're lvl ~14 is a bad passive. Sometimes you don't even get your last 2 "Transcended" skills because of how fast games end these days.

Syndra is a very bad version of Veigar. A nuking champ that unleashes everything on one enemy to erase them. The thing is Veigar is vastly superior to her in that aspect : He has an AP generating passive, a team wide 2 seconds stun that makes a whole zone a "death trap" and an ult that literally obliterate anyone on sight (with that new %health), not to mention his 1.0 ap rations on 2 of his skills.

Syndra can what ? stun 2 maybe 3 people for a split second before they eat her alive ?

I know you're trying to fix her Riot, and I'm glad for that, but her passive just needs to be completely reworked into a new one, and give the damn balls some use after spawning them instead of them just staying there watching you get killed.

"So much untapped power." has never been more true.

I agree with you.... I wrote a thread for Riot, but they didnt notice me. I improved Syndra passive to be less garbage. You can read it, if you want: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/yjLlRRLE-what-i-expected-for-syndra-change-on-the-pbe
