Lanning phase
Waves - First few waves your looking mostly to punish your opponent on last hits While hitting the wave Some matchups does not allow you to do that for exemple Ekko
Trades- 70% of the cases how you get stacks are from Using W on a minion into aiming at them when they are about to last hit into getting slowed and you just aim the Q at their head since they are slowed, Be aware when your against champion who has CCs like Ahri Charm Your looking to bait out her Charm before Looking for WQ combo stacks, Your also able to gain stacks using QE most of the time ideally you wanna use it during Exit, Why is that? because your E is your only defense Tool which gives opponent a big window to punish when your E is down.
Bases - Your ideal bases depends on the opponent your facing, but in general your looking for a base around 6th wave 4:00 with around 800 Gold which you can then buy Tomb + Darkseal Other good base timers are 950 Gold Which in that case Ionia Boots or 1.2k Gold which you can buy lost chapter

Spikes
There is few spikes when playing Syndra that you should know
Items
- The first major Spike is Ionia boots, How come a item with no damage can make you spike? The Fact is Syndra is one of the champion who benefits from Movement Speed ALOT Your able to space and hit skillshot that you woulnt hit otherwise It makes your Prio more dangerous since your able to move and gank sidelane faster You also get your abilites faster than which is nice Also easier to dodge skillshots like Xerath, ,Orianna,Ahri
- 1/2nd spike Lost chapter 100% of the control mages that you play spikes on this item The amount of ap,cdr and Mana you get from this item is just insane
- Luden's Companion This is where Syndra Becomes fun your able to almost 100-0 Your opponent with full combo
- Shadowflame Your guaranteed to 1 shot anyone whos in range of your full combo
- Blackfire Torch Your spells Becomes so much more deadlier And Slow Teamfights makes your item value go really high up or skirmish in general
- Cosmic Drive this is where you can Space your opponent to death the amount of movement speed will make your fights trades so much easier
- Rabadon This is where you spike the HARDEST in the game You become a monster every spell hits like a truck and your R might just 100-0 A Squish member
LVL/Stack Spikes
LVL 3 - This is where you unlock all your abilites and are able to Gain Stacks while having the tool to defend youself
LVL 6 - You unlock ALOT more burst Potential with your ultimate enabled, If you went First strike rune you most likely have triple tonic which at lvl 6 you can gain 20+ Adaptive Force which is HUGE for EVEN more burst dmg. Also you gain 10 Ability Haste on Q
LVL 7/8 40 Stacks - This when fun beings you unlock your Q uppgrade which allowes you to have 2 Qs stored up, Your poke become so much deadlier, You can find more E angles paired up with Qs, Your ultimate become even more Deadlier since you can have more balls for the ult
LVL 11 - Your ult start to Hurt Really badly now and you have 20 Ability haste on Q
LVL 16 - If you thought LVL 11 ult hurts LVL 16 ults Being enough fed can just 100-0 Someone

Mid Game
Sidelane - Your Sidelaning is not very strong so most of the time you cannot get push on your own so your just looking to recive wave under tower, To deal with this problem you want to play around infomation if you know where everyone is then you can walk up and contest the wave, Small tips you can do is sometimes your opponent takes the wave and moves to mid in that cases you can actually sit in the bush of the lane and wait for next wave to arrive and one shot the wave forcing enemy mid to respond. You can also trap in the bush and if they facecheck you do a big chunk of damage
Teamfights
The best way to find stuns in teamfight are through Fog of war,
The other way to find a big stun is to ult the frontline and E for the big AOE Stun.
Your position should be adaptable depends your teams need and opponents picks sometimes you should be infront looking for stuns sometimes you wanna be in fog waiting for enemy to run into your range and Sometimes your on the side to zone the opponent

Trinket Usage
Yellow Trinket
- You can use the ward LVL 1 on the enemy Raptors Against Clearing Junglers to spot enemy pathing its also usefull to ward knowing you don't have Prio over lane early game
- You can ward in river or bush After 2nd wave crashed before 2:30 since thats when jungler does their 3 camp into gank
- And if you still has not used a ward you can put them down anytime before 3:30 thats when they finished their clear and is either looking for a gank or Crab
Oracle
- You want to get Oracle once your Q is UPPGraded since your now able to just 1 shot wave and play with fog securing full vision control,
- It also is very insane for teamfights where you can make sure your in Fog and find great angles to poke them
Blue trinket
- You want to get this trinket when your behind and you cannot really use oracle since you have no contorl over the map in this case Blue trinket has much more value since it helps you face check objectives
