Still waiting on that Syndra fix.

So it's been how many weeks since Syndra was completely destroyed by nerfs and she STILL isn't fixed?

Her winrate has been the lowest in the entire game since her nerf. Even Urgot has a better winrate.

"Oh but winrate doesn't mean everything! Champions can be stronger or weaker based on skill!"

Okay, sure. A good player CAN make a bad or weak champion work. But then you look at syndra's 39% winrate in DIAMOND.

And then we see Ahri with a retarded 57% winrate and nobody cares. But when syndra has a 50.5% winrate everyone loses their shit and demands nerfs.

But nobody is gonna read this. Of course.

Win rates are in fact nearly useless, but yes, Syndra was overnerfed and for stupid reasons while Riot avoids real problems.

Ya all the anime nerds care about Ahri, cant nerf her even when shes approaching 60% win rate.

Riot is going to fix Syndra as soon as they balance Zed, Yasuo, Kalista, etc.

(get it because they're not going to.)

Fix Syndra? You mean remove her from the game? Let's not get carried away...

Last time I played Syndra I noticed my typical Q-E combo was always failing to execute, presumably because the orb/Q was either not getting E'd or not spawning fast enough...and we did lose that game...even if I did win mid.

Riot is gonna make her E hitbox even bigger...

I main syndra and i have no problem playing her even with the nerfs. The only problem i have is that 10% if the stuns i land do not actually stun and instead go right through the champ. Rito just needs to fix that and its all good. I'm actually glad if people don't play her as much. More white haired sovereign for me

Since her Q+E was rewidened it's been going fine for me. And it's going to be ever so slightly wider next patch.

Frankly, I'm worried about her being too strong again. But we'll see.

Actually a lot of people care about Ahri. But, yeah, Syndra could have help.

Im genuinely pissed that they nerf this champion unnecessarily only to leave her in a shit state for 3-4 patches.

For the love of fucking god, Why do normal low skilled players act like because they have this 1 friggin statistic that they suddenly know more then teams of developers who spent their life balancing champions!?

Riot has said several times winrate/pickrate are a very small statistic amongst many others to decide a champions current state, and they flat out DO NOT CARE about it.

Sometimes we just go a period of time where people don't find X champion as appealing right now, Sometimes X champion just doesn't fit what the popular trend of champions currently are right now, Sometimes X champion will just fall out for a bit and come back like they always do.

But no no, Mr Gelfrosh you and LOLkings winrate statistics know what is really going on, you know what is best.

Do I think Syndra is broken, op, to nerfed?

No I don't. I see plenty of play for her, and her usage varies, I played her once before and found her kit awkward to use. By no means is she underpowered I have seen that chick wreck teams like it is nothing.

Just go play the game, You don't even notice this stuff a lot of the time, If you spend all your time looking at some numbers on a graph of course you are going to form a bias and assume she has problems.

And as for Ahri people do care, Her change from assassin to mage was popular. Give it a week or two and she will stop being played so heavily.

But nobody is gonna read this. Of course.

Oh you mean bitching about someone needing buffs because of your winrate graph won't get your thread popular? God I wonder why.
