Playing as Syndra

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Push a sphere to stun

    Place Dark Sphere (Q) between you and your target, then cast Scatter the Weak (E): the sphere you push stuns the enemies it hits.

  2. Follow Force of Will with a sphere

    After landing Force of Will (W), follow up right away with Dark Sphere (Q): the target is slowed and has a hard time dodging it.

  3. Poke with Dark Sphere

    Poke with Dark Sphere (Q) from level 1: it has 800 range, its cooldown is only 7 seconds, and each rank of your ult lowers it further.

  4. Damage enemies to grow your spells

    Hit enemies whenever you can: Transcendent (passive) gives you Splinters of Wrath for every level and every hit, and each threshold upgrades one of your spells.

  5. Set up spheres before your ult

    Place several spheres before Unleashed Power (R): the ult launches the 3 orbiting you at your target, plus up to 4 more nearby.

Playing against Orianna

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay out of her ball's line

    Don't stand in the path of her ball, because Command: Attack (Q) damages every enemy it passes through before stopping.

  2. Target her when her ball is far

    If you can engage, target Orianna when her ball is far from her: her spells come from the ball, and she has no dash.

  3. Don't group near her ball

    In teamfights, don't stay grouped with your allies near her ball, because Command: Shockwave (R) pulls every nearby enemy toward it.

  4. Watch the ally carrying her ball

    Back off when her ball is attached to an ally diving your team: Command: Shockwave (R) will then come from them.
