Early game (levels 1–5)

On paper you own every phase here, but respect that Syndra is a strong blind pick, so play it clean. Levels 1-5 favour you (Yone) because she's immobile: walk up behind the wave to body-block her Dark Sphere (Q) and chip with Mortal Steel each time her Scatter the Weak (E) is on cooldown. Her only defensive layer is that E stun, so bait it or space around it and she has nothing to stop your step-ins.
