Standard — burst
Standard build maximizing damage output. Use on neutral matchups or when ahead.
15,000 total cost
Pick-and-angle-control mage build: Syndra wins when she turns neutral space into forbidden ground, then converts one badly placed target into immediate advantage. The build must therefore preserve range, rotation reliability, and setup safety.
Three reads of the same champion, computed by our engine on official CN server data (current-patch stats, ratios and prices): a reliable base to adapt to your game. Burst focuses on raw AP and penetration, anti-resist prioritizes magic penetration, and safety adds defensive utility against threats.
