Syndra vs Lux

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Syndra is a burst control mage with medium lane pressure who must control space using Q and W to poke and set up E stuns.
Deny Lux's early lane pressure by avoiding reckless Lux Q trades and punishing missed Lux Q with E stun combos.

Trading pattern

Poke with Q and W to control space and force Lux to use Lux Q defensively.
Hold E to punish Lux's oversteps or missed Lux Q with a stun into burst.
Avoid trading if E is down since Syndra is immobile and vulnerable to Lux's poke and burst.

Danger windows

Syndra is vulnerable if E is missed or on cooldown, as she lacks mobility and sustain.
Be cautious when Lux's Lux Q and Lux R are available and off cooldown for potential burst combos.
Avoid extended trades if Lux's Lux W shield is active, reducing your damage effectiveness.

Early game

Respect Lux's high early agency by avoiding overcommitment before level 6.
Use Q and W to poke safely and prepare spheres for E stuns when Lux's Lux Q is on cooldown.
Avoid missing E as it is Syndra's only hard crowd control and escape tool early.

Power spikes

Syndra's major spikes are level 6 R and first completed mage item for burst potential.
Respect Lux's level 6 Lux R and first mage item as significant burst threats.
Syndra's level 11 and 16 Q upgrades increase poke frequency and control, strengthening lane pressure.

Win conditions

Use Q and W to poke and zone Lux, then punish missed Lux Q with E stun into R burst all-ins.
Deny Lux lane control by forcing her to miss Lux Q, creating windows for aggressive trades.
Scale safely to level 6 and item spikes to outburst Lux and snowball lane control.

Tip: For Syndra vs Lux, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
