I just got spanked by a Syndra its not the first time and i am getting tired of it happening. I more then likely just suck at dodging skill shots but i fined her Q to be really hard to dodge before getting boots. I know champoins like Akali Kassadin counter her (supposedly). Can some one give me some tips to play vs her?

With the changes to Assassins, Syndra has become one of the best 100-0 champions there is. You need to be able to avoid her damage but keeping out of her short range. She will try to boost her range with her combo abilities, costing her mana. She'll only ever close in for an ult-kill. You need to have at least Zhonya's and something else to avoid her ult damage.

Syndra doesn't do well against champions she can't even get close to, like Lux. Alternatively, someone like Lissandra is 1 for 1 against Syndra. Longer Range poke really keeps Syndra controlled, however, it leaves you vulnerable should you get ganked since long ranged ability focused champions tend not to have a lot of mobility.

While the poster above made some good points, a champions counter play should never be "pick X champion" that's not counter PLAY, that's a counter PICK and there is a difference. Building zhonyas is a good idea for her ult, but even that is not enough imo as her ult has a shorter cd than zhonyas. IMO syndras R needs to be dumbed down, but until that happens (probably never) just stay away from any balls she has placed in lane and probably play that ranged game like the above poster said. Or ban her out.
