At this point in time she was considered op and got nerfed shortly after in patch 5.1: http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/patch/patch-51-notes

Clip: https://youtu.be/80Y69TdefhI?t=15m

A 6/0/2 syndra walks up to a lee sin who has giants belt, sightstone and warriors enchatment. As you can see it takes her full combo to kill the poor chap including her ignite. He had 262 ability power at this point.

Heres syndra now: https://youtu.be/pIoj85lg6aQ?t=14m30s

Same level of fedness, pretty much same time. Kills the enemy trist with a Q and R. He also only had 212 ap at this point.

Am I the only one who sees a problem with the amount of damage done in this game? Its crazy.

Q has a higher AP ratio now, Trist was 1 level lower than Lee in the circumstances. 22 MR on Trist vs 54 MR. Also, Abyssal increases magic damage done by 10% now.

So yeah, itemization but it was also cause of runes/some equip choices.

There's Syndra changes on the pbe right now^^ http://www.surrenderat20.net/p/current-pbe-balance-changes.html#balance

My point isnt that syndras over powered or anything, I'm saying that there is honestly too much damage in league of legends right now. 2 many champions can litterally 2 shot with 1 normal ability and an ult from 100-0 Cough Lux Cough

Yeah, but after they blow that burst it's not like they can continue one-shotting people.

You can actually add all the assasins in lol. Rengar can one shot you with immune cc ability. Leblanc does half your health with just her chain and an auto plus very very high mobility. Annie can do the same but she's very immobile and short range. If syndra can't keep up with her burst, people just gonna burst her before she bursts them.

Well Lee was kinda tanky... But yay for assassins getting more counterplay, they really needed it kappa

You're comparing a Syndra killing a 22 MR, 1097HP Trist to a Syndra killing a 54 MR 1873 HP Lee Sin. The Lee has over 2x as much effective HP, of course it took the Syndra more spells to kill him.

Syndra dealt 1339 raw damage to Trist. She dealt 2885 raw damage to Lee Sin. If the Trist had that much bulk Syndra wouldn't have killed her.

You also fucked up, your second vid is almost a year old, hence why Bjerg has a FQC, that's Syndra a year ago, not now. Try to inform yourself a little before you post.

you know how hard it is to find specific videos, so go fuck yourself. Iv never played a single season of league with as much bullshit damage as this one. Champions used to actually have to like use their spells to kill you now its, Q R from half of them and you pop because of stupid keystones.

That's not only Ad Hominem, it's the weakest Ad Hominem I've ever seen. The simple fact is that you using a video that's not what you claim it is almost entirely undermines your point. If you're trying to make the thread and find videos to back your point up that's on you, at least check that the video is what you claim it to be. A video from January of this year holds almost no relevance in December.

Had Syndra have hit the Tristana in the S4 video instead of Lee she would have killed her without even needing her ult. Syndra had more damage against the Lee than she did against the Trist, even factoring in TLD. The Lee was over 2 times as tanky though, so of course he survived longer. After Syndra's Q/E/W/AA Lee has already taken 1023 damage, that's 1575ish raw damage (not exact as AAs are phys) if you remember Trist's effective magic HP it was only 1339, so she'd have died before Syndra even ulted.

What you're comparing isn't damage creep, it's Syndra killing a squishy target and a moderately tanky target. That's not to say there's no damage creep, but this is just an incredibly poor example because you didn't analyse the footage at all or consider what the variables at play actually were.

Iv never played a single season of league with as much bullshit damage as this one.

You haven't been playing that long then because damage now is tame compared to S3, every champ was an assassin. That doesn't mean everyone was playing Leblanc and Talon (although to some extent they were) it means that DFG was such a godlike item that you could 100-0 nuke someone as Karthus.
