Is it true that Syndra's spheres are nothing but black holes?

They seem to act that way atleast, since black holes weigh tons relative to their size, black holes appear black because no light can escape them. What do you think?

I don't think so, they're mainly described as a mass of dark/pure energy but not nearly so massive as to have a significant gravitational field.

Nah, it' s just dark shit.

Not even black holes or dark matter. Just dark magic shit.

Not to diminuish her power, but yeh. nothing very intresting there.

http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Syndra/SkinsTrivia defines them just as a mass of energy

A black hole with an event horizon the size of the spheres Syndra is throwing around would have significantly more mass than an Earth-sized planet.

If those were dark holes, they'd have fucked the rift over by now.

That is what they look like. The ability itself states they are "Syndra conjures a Dark Sphere dealing magic damage. " I just read her lore too and it doest say anything specific.

No, Syndra's spheres behave nothing like black holes. Sadly, not even Dark Star Thresh's lantern behaves like one, even though it tries to imitate one. It could be said they're just condensed "magic" or something like that.

We don't know and I kinda doubt it. Dark star thresh might use a black hole,because as we have seen by his splash art,he is massive and his "lantern" sucks planets into it.

But syndra uses these without destroying the planet,so I doubt they are black holes.

The closest they're to being is congealed dark matter or some kind of reality encapsulation. The absence of light is darkness to our eyes, and if Syndra's magic is literally binding parts of reality into tiny spheres, it makes sense she might be capturing light itself in the process. Black Holes do this via gravity, but there are other ways than just the supermassive crushing weight those use. Given that she uses said Dark Spheres in very kinetic ways (throwing, launching, and hurling them and doing damage via impact), they're seemingly treated as physical objects.
