Orianna and Syndra have been meta for ages now

Can we do something about orianna and syndra riot? They have been 2 of the consistently viable mages in lcs for so long. In soloqueue they are an even bigger problem, apdo has said that a good orianna has no counters.

Edit : The problem with ori in solo queue is the safety she provides with zoning and the non existent mana costs.

Edit: OK Syndra is not over powered but she has a similar problem with zoning like ori.

While I agree with Orianna, Syndra is not really a problem in solo queue and hasn't for 4 patches

She dropped been between a 47-48% win ratio the past 4 patches with <7% play rate. These aren't really game-breaking statistics. She's viable in solo queue, but I wouldn't call her op or even a staple-mark for the meta.

She may have what most people consider a toxic kit, but a toxic kit =/= OP

I hate that reddit post because he did not post the full context of the translation. Apdo also said that her counters are not Meta yet and what he meant by that was Artillery mages and Diana. Stop trying to get balanced champs nerfed. Syndra's win rate is not high at all and she has very clear counters. Orianna is going to face the same with the Arty focused buffs and Azir Rework also the Ryze Rework.

They should make more mages viable instead of nerfing the current viable ones.

Syndra 48.27% winrate , 6.73% playrate .

DAMN this champ breaks soloQ COMPLETELY. Also 1.38% banrate , literally permabanned.

Just start building adaptive helmet. Orianna has very low cooldowns on her Q, so she will do less damage the more she uses it and Syndra R gets reduced from it since every ball Counts as a separate spellcast-hit.

Nothing wrong with being viable.

Scatter the Weak's hitbox needs to be looked at. That's it. Either that or reduce the missle speed by a small amount.
