User blog comment:Darksusanoo/(Champion Rework) Syndra, the Dark Sovereign/@comment-24035110-20150802001556/@comment-1920550-20150802221018

Don't you feel like she's already overnerfed due to said Q damage nerf? Besides one thing i've come to realize is that going even with Syndra in the early game is pretty much a guaranteed lane victory in the mid-late game with most mid champions. Her teamfight effectiveness is somewhat lacking, especially considering League is becoming an ever more teamfight based game.

I also feel certain champions such as Viktor for instance fullfill the fantasy of an ever evolving mage better than Syndra does ATM and even Viktor has his flaws to it, with the ult augment being piss poor at best. Syndra i feel, like i said in the reasoning for my rework proposition, plays like an early season 4 Renek, where if she can't dumpster her lane, she's screwed.
