Playing agains syndra means you need decent waveclear and some range so you can dodge the stun (a good syndra will always land a stun by hitting a w first), also havig some kind of failsafe if you get caught can never hurt.

Lulu is imo the best option because she has everything you need to survive vs syndra pre and post 6 plus she outranges her if she has blue and she outscales her, and its very easy to gank her because of the slow knockup speedup

Ori has a tougher time because her waveclear is lackluster pre 6 and her skills are slower (plus those horrible mana issues) but the mr on her shield helps a lot and she also outscales syndra. But ori has less playmaking potential than lulu early on so i prefer lulu.

ziggs tf and yasuo all work ok but if you get caught by the stun you are dead. (yasuo is stupid easy to gank too)

kassadin is an overpowered piece of shit play him if the idiots didnt ban him and beg for a gank, after your first kill you won lane.

these are more or less al the standar pick as of patch 4.11 I expect lulu is getting nerfed sooner or later so syndra is going to be more or less the best midlaner in a patch or 2 so i suggest you practice syndra and abuse the fact that almost noone plays her and she is rank 3 or 4 in midlaner power right now, you just go athenes into zhonyas so you can kill a carry then rabadon void and ga (the buildpath is so you can guarantee your ult will hit a carry) or feel free to get a rabadon second if they got a melee carry that you can ult (looking at you yasuo)

The main weakness of syndra is that she is imovile so you can simply ask for ganks but if you get counterganked pray for your life
