I'm a syndra main and i can assure you, her ult isn't as easy as it looks. To be at least deal amazing amount of dmg with her ult, you have to at least have 5 orb for that 100% AP ratio or 6 if you are really intent on it. If you are complaining of her stupid amount of single target burst from her ult, then its because the champ is probably squishy. For her ult to be completely stomping people just by the ult ONLY, it would mean she is very2 fed and i think everybody know that any kind of fed champ can facestomp anyone left behind or squishies (Katarina *cough*)

Yes her stun kit is very satisfying to use but it has its own bad and good merits. It is a must have kit for her to be able to at least ult the right target with the low range ult of her(yes it is low for an AP mage) and even then, the target is actually PUSHED back away from you so you have to follow it up with moving closer too, and that window can mean a LOT if you build tenacity or the support/tank is actually doing its job.

"but her ult hurt ridiculously!" of course it does, its a single target ultimate spell it would be ridiculous if it doesn't considering its a "ultimate". but a lot of preparation needs to be done for that, putting a ball here, grabbing it to refresh, put another one, oh wait the enemy is backing away nvrmind, etc etc etc.

what i wish you could see is that having her long range stun doesn't mean she can control the fight easily, doing a premature start with QE-Q-R is fine and all but if the enemy actually knows what its doing by going RoA or Zhonyas or MR(rather than going full retard dmg) that combo may not suffice in actual competitive play, she needs poke with Q to soften them up(or teamates) and again, stock up all the balls around to make sure when u ult(or E R) a key target of the enemy is down.

Now for your fav part, how to screw her up. Gap closer, blinking champ, Invulnerability, and highly mobile champ really2 screw her up. it might need a bit of practice, but weaving left and right rather than going head on collision with her is a good way to dodge her E stun and just got knocked back, save your gap closing ability for that moment, and the Syndra will panic since she is a relatively vulnerable and slow champ without E

well anyway its your post has been quite old, but i just wanted to help you understand Syndra better(she is so cuuuuute Zed x Syndra 4ever)
