Why would Syndra think it's a good idea to make her main form of damage spherical

Clearly a cube shape would cause more damage, what with those sharp corners and edges.

Hail the cubular master race!

But spheres have a more rounded out damage...

its inefficient when building a mass to spend the energy to make a cube. A sphere is just equal force generated from a central point in all directions equally. Making a cube requires more energy to be used and exact shaping. odds are that she would make a distorted Rhombohedron which would kill people, but only cause they would be laughing to hard.

Also she is a gravity mage, gravity pulls at all things equally.

Spheres are more easily inserted into her enemies' rectal cavities.

Because a sphere is the most stable form and can contain the most power.

Makes sense. Why else would Final boss Veigar do a billion damage to tanks with his ultimate?

alfavhunter6/26/2016, 4:02:51 PM5 votes

Because she has the balls to not care what is most effective, because it's still effective

What's the point of all that power if you can't slap people with your balls

That would be an interesting idea for arcade Syndra, with pixel-y effects and just large pixel qs, like minecraft blocks or something lol

Because she likes having the biggest balls of them all? Because she likes big balls and she cannot lie? Because she likes to say she's ballin'?

A few things:

  1. It's a stable form of condensed magic.
  2. She feels no attachment to them, aka she doesn't care to make different. She is capable of doing it, however.
  3. Initial summoning causes damage by sapping magic out of surrounding area, shape doesn't matter.

Syndra just has her priorities straight

I mean everyone knows that BALL IS LIFE

If she was really powerful she'd use a four-dimensional shape like a tesseract or something.

A sphere with the same diameter as the side length of a cube has less volume, so it requires less matter to create.

Doesn't surprise me that she doesn't see that a cube would be superior in every way. After all...

Veigar Her entire life has been a mathematical error!
