Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to Syndra's superior range and consistent Q poke, but you have kill pressure if she mispositions.
- Post-6 you gain significant kill threat with R, but must respect her range advantage and burst potential with a full combo.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern is to Q the wave while hitting Syndra, then look for W-auto trades when she steps up.
- When your passive is ready, you can look for Q-W-R all-ins if she's positioned aggressively or has used key abilities.
Wave Control
- Focus on shoving waves quickly with Q to minimize poke damage and create roaming opportunities.
- You want to keep waves pushed so you can impact other lanes, as winning through pure laning is difficult against Syndra's range.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't try to match Syndra's poke game or fight in extended trades without your passive ready.
- Avoid using Q purely for poke when the wave is in a bad position, as you'll take more damage than you deal and lose wave control.
