Even though this seems to be a page with not many comments or up votes, thank you guys. At the end of every week this is my favorite thing to come on to the boards and see, a little snip-it of things that happened this week, many of which I missed myself. So even though these weekly roundups never look popular, thank you.

@MiniWhiteRabbit Technical question.

As you seem to use grid layout, image links, some kind of HR tag and even claim you are using HTML, is it possible overall to use HTML or is that just permission for this post? I can't quote your post to see the formatting code and am curious about it. There is also another user who would like to use the HR bar to divide his post into segments.

I think I'd love to see a Eve challenge, where the best players in the world have to sport a team comp where First team to pick first has to pick eve, and we will see just how ... Balanced the champion is.

Hi guys , i have no clue if i can get some feed back here but i wanted to honestly ask. As a 3 year syndra main with a 700k plus mastery score, and a vast amoumts of s plus mastery on her... i just want to know why when you guys finally giver her some love after putting her off for so long, your team is making her easier to play... and nerfing her q early on. I was excited for her buff but this is just making her easier to play... which dosnt even live up to her lore and her quote. (Power belongs to those who can wield it) i also noticed there hasnt been any riot feedback on such a long awaited adjustment. I have no clue whos in charge of her. But can we please get some love on this subject. I dont want the only champ i synergize with to feel even farther from her lore or level of difficuclty. Ive been playing her this long just because of her concept amd skill cap. I was7th in na for playing her im ranked que for the 2015 season with a win rate close to 60 despite her bad spot in the game. Is there anyone that can connect with us syndra mains who do play her correctly to undo this current change to her that makes it easier for herto be a one trick pony rather than making her intricate spell weaving more impactful. I could already one shot well by meeting her skill cap. What many of us syndra mains had issues with was how unimpactful it felt to rotate so many spells and still lose to a foe. Honestly a good example is yasuo hes in the same boat skill cap wise but syndra still under performs. With yas you know if he rotates his basic spells on you 2-3 times your toast.... but you dont get that with syndra. Can we rethink this re-work /passive change to be high skill cap high reward rather than low skill cap high reward. Right now before the change shes more high skill cap medium reward. We play this champ for the challenge and the potential! -A legion couldnt stop me what chance do you have -syndra lets live up to that riot. Great champ great desighn!
