Hey, I'm Frost and this guide is about my Syndra! I've played hundreds of games as Syndra and always perform well on her! In this guide I'm gonna show you how to play her to climb easily in SoloQ! Syndra is a super strong midlaner who doesnt have alot of losing matchups. This makes her a safe pick in midlane. You can win every lane and oneshot nearly everyone with little to no counterplay for them - which makes her a godlike pick in soloq.

These are my stats in Season 11 on her on one of my dia/master accs

You can find me streaming at my TWITCH CHANNEL. Ask questions if you have any!

Pros:
+Good Waveclear
+Long Range Poke
+Insane Burst Damage
+AOE CC
+Strong Early/Mid/Late Game


Cons:
-Squishy
-Dead if you have bad positioning
-Q / W / E are skillshots -> you need some skill ;)

Poke Combo
Dark Sphere > Scatter the Weak > Force of Will > Electrocute

Start of the Combo with a quick Q into E on the enemy laner. If he is in your Q range both spells will hit - if not try to stun him with your E - When he is stunned follow up the combo with your W and an Autoattack, which will trigger Electrocute.

All in
Dark Sphere > Scatter the Weak > Force of Will > Unleashed Power

This is your basic all in - its basically your Poke Combo with your R as follow up. The best way to all in is to have a preexisting Q in lane, which you use to stun the opponent with. This way you can have another Q of damage on the enemy.

Big AOE Stun
Dark Sphere > Unleashed Power > Scatter the Weak

This can be used as good engage or disengage tool. Simply Q and ultimate the enemy Frontliner. Then you follow up with your E - which will theoretically stun the whole enemy team if its lined up behind the tank because of all the Balls of your R.

Invisible Stun
Scatter the Weak > Dark Sphere

This might require some practice, so test this in the training mode. Simply Use your E and instantly after casting use your Q on the max range of your E (the max. ball push range of your e). This can be used to surprise the enemy laner since it has super low time to react to, which can lead to a kill

IN LANE

Try to be aggresive in lane. Use your Q Dark Sphere to harrass the enemy laner. It is best to not use your abilities on the minions since you can run out of mana, so only do it if he hardpushes.
If he is low enough you can go for your Basic Poke Combo and finish him off.
If your jungler ganks you either wait for him to cc the enemy laner and follow up with your stun - or if he has no cc you have to engage with your stun.

Try to pressure the enemy laner and work with your jungler to get picks on the enemy mid or jungler. Try to either roam or freeze the wave so you get a lead on the enemy laner.



MID GAME

After laning phase you can go to the sidelane and continue farming while your botlane/jgl stays midlane. If you have Teleport you can always join your team for teamfights - if you dont have it always be rdy to join them!
Syndra is super good in the sidelane since she is super good in 1v1. Continue gaining experience and farm there to get even stronger.

In teamfights you want to either oneshot the frontline or if you get access to their backline simply oneshot the enemy carries. Often it is enough to Q and R the enemy ADC for him to die.



LATE GAME

In late game you can be the gamechanger. Try to hide in fog of war and catch people with your basic combo. Stuns can lead to free kills which can win games.
Try to assasinate the enemy carries and focus on stunning them in late game teamfights. If you have Zhonyas and Flash you can look for super aggresive Flashes into oneshotting the enemy carry and then using zhonyas - your team should be able to peel for you afterwards, but always be careful when doing that.



IN GENERAL

Play aggresive early game!
Use your early game lead to snowball!
Try to oneshot people with your insane burst!
Be a backbone and major carry in teamfights!
