Where to begin, jeez. First of all, thanks for the feedback, but keep personal preference out of it, and remember that most of the itemization, runes, and masteries I put into the guide are OPTIONAL and, ESPECIALLY the top recommended items, are purely at a glance items that a new player would use this guide for. If you are new to Syndra and AP mid in general, you should pick up defensive items. Also, if you get fed, their Riven or their Irelia will focus you hard, and without armor or someway to counteract it, you will die. You're a squishy, and your only defense is your E. In regards to Athene's, it's personal preference, as you had stated before. I find spamming my abilities more flexible than going straight damage. Remember, you can't burst anyone if you have no mana to kill them with, and blue buff is just too unreliable with all the counter jungling madness. I generally give my blue to my Jungler if they can use it. I can get mana regen, they can't.

I like to read, that's just me. I'd prefer to read a novel on Syndra than look at a pretty picture that doesn't give any information on its own until elaborated upon. Again, personal preference, and since that's mine, I will keep it the way it is.

Force of Will is definitely an easy spell to use, lol. Comparatively to a rapid fire, wide skill shot, quick cast time Q and a super fast, high skill cap skillshot like your E, and a point and click ult like hers, Force of Will is really easy to use. If you say that it's hard to use, then I recommend you practice more with it. Once you get a feel for it, you'll get better.

I know my guide can improve a lot, I never said it was perfect.

THIS sentence explained your entire comment. You have a Syndra guide too eh? Well, I will certainly be looking forward to reading yours as well. Ofc, all information is welcome information. Good luck on your guide.

Meh..probably not gonna vote because I don't like downvoting people's guides all that much even when I don't agree with them but I will tell you what I like and what I don't like about the guide.

What I like - I like how you say things that are completely true like Syndra being able to sometimes initiate late game with her Q+E combo or how her ranges late game aren't too big and you need very smart positioning on her.

I also like your runes. Not the same as mine but very similar and I find yours just as optimal as mine. It's just preference I guess.


What I don't like - Your Item build. It's not optimal at all. You rarely need GA on a mage especially one like Syndra. Athene's is not even that necessary on her anymore. Some people do get it but a lot of others don't and I agree with those who don't. You need burst as Syndra and Athene's gets in the way of you getting more burst. Sure it makes you a bit tankier but your positioning should be all the defenses you need. Not MR.

I also don't like the huge text walls. Add at least maybe color to the text or something..I dunno. I don't normally look a lot at the BB Coding of a guide but your guide really does have a lot of text walls.

And finally I don't like when you say things that are completely wrong. For example you say Force of Will is an easy to use spell. That is not true at all. When you throw something at someone the time it takes for your spell to land isn't exactly that small making this hard to land sometimes. It may seem easy to use but it's not if you're throwing an enemy minion or your ball at a long a distance.


Like I said I probably won't vote but in my opinion the guide can improve a lot. You better improve it because my Syndra guide is a beast (never worked harder on a guide before) and is gonna be released once I get guide graphics. So you're gonna have some serious competition from me! :)

Voted +1.. just a tip: use some more BB code in you're guide to make it more pleasant to read.
