That's where we disagree.

Or it might be just me playing Syndra for so long, that I can't see those weaknesses anymore.

I can totally go 0/0/0 with even CS with my opponent and be viable. Even so, for me that means I won the lane in nearly every case. Of course I'm this type of player who will always try to make the life of the other dude miserable, so if I lane aganist Yasuo and he doesn't go 0/7, it means I was sloppy and could do better.

Then I don't feel like Syndra is lacking in teamfights. Quite the opposite.

She does what Amumu or Orianna does for a tenth of it's cooldown, without sacrificing that much in her kit.

I think you draw this conclusion based on her single-target ultimate, but that's not really true.

Q nerf, I agree was heavy handed, but that only matters until level 3 or 4.

Compare that to Yasuo who had half of his kit removed and the rest repeatedly nerfed.

Now, you mention Viktor. Honestly? His W argument is crap, at best will not mean shit and worse will make you or allies miss their abilities. R is completely unnoticeable, too.
