This Pre-Season man....

I decided to try out Syndra with these new masteries! I love Syndra, she was my main for the longest time. People said she needed buffs, but I found her at least play-able and even pretty good. BEFORE THIS PATCH.

I just played a game... and went literally 0/6. My issues weren't so much as the champion herself, but how Syndra and any mages fit in this pre-season. I feel like I'm just being a burden and would be better off going an AD mid, there's not much of a point in an AP mid unless it's a primarily AD team you're on. AP has become a niche class. I'm not sure for all mages, but I know this patch seemed to hit Syndra relatively hard. Then again I did play only one game, so we'll see in my next game...

Think that's bad?

AP Mid has pretty much become rarer than a Yorick player.

Yasuo is stupidly OP now, as he can reach 100% crit chance with just 3300 gold. (Using item 3087 and item 1018 ) In addition, he also gets 15% lifesteal per hit PLUS an increase in attack speed if he's using the Warlord's Bloodlust keystone mastery. Oh yeah, and let's not forget his passive that gives him a free fucking shield just for MOVING, handy against anyone playing a mage, considering Yasuo does not have to worry about mana unlike anyone that uses:

Ahri Viktor Malzahar Heimerdinger Fizz Ekko Ziggs

You get the idea.

First off, its the first day of pre-season. Contraty to popular belief, Riot isnt stupid, they can obviously see how strong AD is in comparison to AP. Changes WILL be made I am sure. My precious Azir is fine, and he scales simmilarly to Syndra, and is fine. Just be paitent, I garuntee by S6 they will have fixed alot of the AP problems.

Let's just hope that Riot can, rebalance mages around the absence of mana potions before people really start freaking out. (even though people freak out on the first day.)

Yeah, you're probably right. It's just so scary seeing all this unfold. I've been a "mage main" since I first joined in late season 2. Phewww...
