Who Wins
- You lose early levels due to Syndra's superior minion clear and Q spam, but can trade evenly if you land Q-W combos consistently.
- At level 6, you have kill pressure with R if she's below 60% health, but must respect her flash-E-R burst combo which can one-shot you.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern revolves around Q angles to hit her through minions, followed by W placement to zone her from CS.
- Only commit to extended trades when your passive is stacked, as the true damage proc often wins trades that seem unfavorable on paper.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely early and matching her push with Q-E waveclear once you have sufficient mana.
- Look to establish slow pushes mid-game where your superior range allows you to poke her under tower while maintaining safe positioning.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't stand too close to walls where her E becomes easier to land, and never face-check brushes without vision as her burst combo can kill you instantly.
- Avoid using E defensively unless absolutely necessary, as losing your only mobility spell often results in death to her follow-up damage.
