[@CoachMysterias]

Very proud of this project, hope you guys enjoyed! Let me know if you guys have any questions

[@Kyan100]

I tested your syndra first hand, we played multiple times against eachother in soloqueue, we beat eachother multiple times haha, great content btw!

[@CoachMysterias]

@@Kyan100 GG's brother thanks for the kind words

[@andrewadams530]

It's SO obviously that you put hours and hours of meticulous care into this guide. Super detailed and amazing. Great work man!

[@SgtRoebuck115]

I love your content Mysterias im a big fan since the Yone video with Coach Curtis. Please keep making educational Yone content. Hes in such a funny spot right now a lot of people are saying hes better top with a split push build of Kraken - hull - IE. What type of playstyle though should a Yone mid play? Items and wave timings have been changing quite a bit so im kind of at a loss and stuck to the old ways of last season.

[@wontonjohn321]

demat question: how should i distribute them for breakpoints? or do you just use them to gain prio with cannons?

[@przan]

I very rarely comment on KZbin videos, but I have to say that I have played league since beta and consumed insane amounts of lol related content over the years. You are one of, if not the best content creator here, you deserve 100 times you current subscribers. The amount of time you put into your videos must be insane

[@CoachCurtis]

I really appreciate that man. You made my day!

[@MarsForDeRige]

Thanks for including the last gameplay commentary, and especially for highlighting some of the mechanical errors. I think I had a false-narrative that high-elo players don't make mistakes, and it was really refreshing to see Mysterias be so open about it and analyze it.

[@ohhimark3691]

I’ve been playing mostly syndra for about 7 years now and it’s always nice to see other people talk about her and discuss this champion! Great video

[@akyuu3282]

i'm halfway through the video rn and i can already tell this is going to be one of these guide i come back to every once in a while.

[@giorgospap337]

I don't know my luck is huge...I have semifinals with my team this week and we are lose to winning the split...I am.gonna play Syndra and I needed some guide like that from curtis especially to be extra prepared for them...thank you so much !!!❤❤

[@lorenaklaes9140]

Probably the most helpful guide I've ever watched. Loved the variety of how you prepared all the information, swapping between theory and vod analysis. Would love to see more of this kind of content although I'm sure it was a ton of work. It would be cool to see a guide on a more early game centered champ in the future in contrast.❤

[@ChimkinSendwich]

Coach Curtis has narratives with Star Guardian Syndra skin!! You need to VOD review on why you actually dealt less damage with it!

[@user-kb8tw1cz8g]

Many thanks Curtis for this!! Just picked Syndra based on my time on the MLA, which I really look forward to join to keep growing my Syndra. Awesome content as per usual!

[@prodromosx07]

Syndra guide out finally ❤️. Thank you Coach & Tim.

[@cherrykitty1998]

Love your content so much Coach Curtis, THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK IN THIS COMMUNTIY

[@facsoba]

I've just picked up syndra, this guide is awesome. Thank you so much for your work guys.

[@SirButterlegs]

Im so happy for this guide and it has helped me so greatly in playing the bae Syndra. Thank you very much for all the effort and time put into this guide for my new top 3 mid lane champ with Aurelion Sol and LeBlanc.

[@coachamish]

Great stuff as always! thank you coach

[@wojo9236]

Thank you guys for this guide i just hit Master in 2 weeks from E4 1st time in my life (stucked 3 years in low diamond) mostly playing Syndra. Your guide helped me a lot, never had such understanding of a champion before.

[@TenkoSekka]

i was just getting into syndra, great timing

[@swarties4698]

I've been waiting for this guide for so long, ty Curtis

[@hexcurse8711]

Wow! just watched the Ahri guide and picked up Syndra coincidentally. This works perfect!

[@tagir133]

Thanks for the video Curtis! Have started playing ranked recently and got from iron 1 to silver by one tricking Syndra with a 20 game win streak. Hopefully, this video can help me take my Syndra even higher.

[@HusumLOL]

Very good Guide. I love these big guides that include so much about the champion. Always such good content curtis.

[@tonytran2130]

Swain s14 guide ft. HusumLol inc 😮

[@marcusscribner1603]

This was so useful not just for syndra but all control mages great guide!

[@mokhtarfatmi2030]

Best guide ever made for syndra. Keep up the great work man

[@vitorpereira8250]

nice video, Coach Curtis! keep the good work. Greetings from Brazil

[@Chrosa]

Thanks for this guide, really detailed and helpful!

[@Reyna3103]

I love that you have multiple people working on guides

[@VoidOnis]

Like always. Great content based on process.

[@reyeem]

Thanks for this guide, I simply went from emeraude 4 to diamant 4 without any problems and I think there's room to go even higher. Your way of looking at the game is very interesting and has made me progress a lot, thank you!

[@haroldpham6693]

just wanna say thank mr curtis for TF coaching and vod library, i finally managed to hit my goal of Diamond right before season end and although my journey in MLA was short-lived it was pretty epic :D I finally rest, and watch the sunrise on an grateful universe, thanks to you mr curtis ggwp

[@morrisgreg2176]

the universe is grateful how do you know this?

[@Kessig_IRL]

I’ve been playing Syndra a lot recently and I was wishing for a guide from you. Apparently, my prayers have been answered, thank you both so much!

[@itiagofilipe]

Bro same! Let's get it

[@facsoba]

Same here

[@UkrainAiR]

curtis really out here dropping 2h videos. ty for everything, gigachad content!

im watching this guide despite not liking syndra, but loving the content! keep it up!

[@louisadams2643]

Hey coach, you are looking in good shape man! Gym appears to be paying off

[@TranquillityX]

Amazing thank you so muchhh

[@Sethyfisher]

YESSSSS COACH CURTIS. THE BEST.

[@antonioplazibat451]

Nice guide! Another good tip is to make sure to always grab cannon if team around to secure stack and good trick to know is that you can damage annie by w on tibers and throwing it far from annie.

[@CommanderBradAS]

Of course when I roll swap to jungle you put out a guide for my second pick mid. Real talk keep up the good work Curtis

[@Justin-ny8df]

Syndra was the first champion to carry me from Bronze to Gold long ago, I'm still a hard stuck gold but I loved this video because it opened my eyes on how I was playing with some of her abilities and little tricks I did not know.

[@bombshellblonde544]

I don't think I've ever watched anything more helpful for League. I bought Syndra ages ago when she first came out, but really struggled, and figured learning her was a lost cause with the rework. This showed me it was really just a new passive, and I learned so much that I'm looking forward to bringing her into some matches

[@vansserafim]

Best league of legends educational content on KZbin along with Natt Mott and coach Cupcake

[@youngwillis63]

Amazing guide! I'm playing mid on my alt with some mates. Loving the change in style from my jungle/top champs

[@benjaminperryman6871]

Hi Curtis, I've been watching your videos for at least 4 years now. I would love to see some veigar content - a guide like this would be amazing.

[@sakurya972]

Nice video. I'll need time to set aside to pay attention to its entirety. I also hope you guys make a Malzahar in-depth guide as well.

[@Games635]

Amazing

[@glunox]

hell yeah, I need this so hard.

[@doubleboom3804]

Id like to see a taliyah guide :) Great Syndra guide!

[@danielbenito8459]

Very deep video as always, in the spanish comunity nobody does it a guide like this.

[@Hydrodictyon]

I’m extremely new to the game, Syndra is actually the champion that made me finally enter it. And I found one trick for myself that I’m not sure is really useful, but is fun. I build up some ability haste and try stacking 4 BALLS before pressing R, to make a total of 7. I don’t really get it right most of the times, but I do have fun trying

[@terrariahuma7767]

Perfect timing

[@mohammadm.o4457]

Liked and shared to 5 syndra main friends before watching master courtis new vid

[@ltjorge16]

Could there be a veigar guide?? I’m loving the content guys it’s really helping me get out of bronze by understanding the game fundamentals

[@admiraldoge4228]

Wd be lovely if u could highlight in the Matchup sheet which Runes u wd go for in these Matchups, other then that Great Content Coach :)

[@steeler-agar4202]

brother i was just looking though your old coaching videos a few days ago and saw the old Syndra guide before the rework and wished you’d make an updated version

[@nicolasmardones9406]

nice video! waiting for the ultimate viktor guide hehe

[@Alash1r]

I was at work thinking about what champ I want to learn, and I thought "maybe Syndra would work". I went on youtube and my first recommendation was this video. I then went onto the client and Syndra was 55% off! Seems like the world is telling me something. I really appreciate the work you put into this guide, and bettering the community as a whole. Much love

[@anthonyy339]

how was ur climb

[@dotVoided]

@@anthonyy339 he went from iron 2 to bronze 4

[@nevermind5733]

hehe, another of my hate champs to play against exactly because of the mentioned points. The nice thing about these guides ist, that they are not only useful for playing the champs. By understanding what they are doing and what they WANT to is, it gives one options to play against them too.

[@SwedishPlayerZero]

Is there like a spreadsheet where it can be seen when aery or first strike is like the more correct rune choices?

[@CoachMysterias]

not really, its a feel thing in my opinion. if youre unsure, gravitating to first strike is always good

[@CaseyOSorry]

Let's go! I'd love to see a Viktor guide as well

[@89Moretto]

YES! It'd be GREAT if we can see an updated Viktor's guide

[@nkft1]

@@89Moretto honestly there's nothing new about it, maybe builds but in curtis channel you can find everything that you need to master him

[@DomagojSavordh]

Couple of weeks ago I said I went back to league after few years of absence and since I got back I'm playing better than ever and I was close to gold. Updated: I reached gold and I think I can do it more. Thanks alot. These guides are the best. I used to play Syndra before and didn't know what to improve, macro, micro or champion but now I know. She will get her lore eventually and will be even more fun then and I'm planning to get some mastery points until then. Now it's a problem who to drop. I watched guides and all champions I'm playing I'm really enjoying but I know I have to drop at least one for successful climbing: Zed, TF or Taliyah if I want to main Syndra. Zed no way because I really like RPGs and lore and I'm like role playing him (I also know he differs here the most based on playstyle as well). TF is too cool and unique as well so I will have to decide between Syndra and Taliyah unfortunatelly. At least all of them are strong solo q champs so I can't do a mistake at least

[@ryxsen1135]

Mysterias goat

[@lumeowsity]

im playing her as support with glacial and mandate and god so far this video is so helpful!!! def watching till the end, thank yall for working on this!!

[@TheLoneAlpaca]

Hey coach Curtis great content as always can you make a shaco top guide next

[@SkilledPrig]

Hi Curtis, great guide with Mysterias! Just wondering wheter you plan on doing a Katarina guide as well? Cheers!

[@guilhermepetroli3612]

Can't wait for the Taliyah mid guide

[@Antibiose.]

Oh boy, Oh boy, Oh boy

[@M_CFV]

Night harvester + tear might be good, I feel like Harvester is super underrated, and its really good on champs without mana issues

[@leaguesquad6327]

Quick comment now that we're in a new season, from my own experience and that of other Syndra players, you take Manaflow Band instead of Gathering Storm now, and rush Stormsurge (ignoring Ludens). Until Lost Chapter itemization is fixed, this will be the way forward for the forseaable future.

[@bencecsepeli8226]

Amazing. been a main since mid scope but such guides are always welcome. Do you plan to make one on Aurelion Sol or what will be the topic of your next guide ? :)

[@CoachCurtis]

Kassadin is my next guide :) Maybe some Asol in the future

[@3ultiple]

It will be so funny if Coach Curtis does a Yasuo guide

[@olafwinter6303]

Awesome stuff! Such an intricate guide. Would love to see a Talon one some time down the line.

[@ampongjohnricardo2167]

Will you also be releasing guides for champs like Ori or Liss in the future?

[@juliomadeira9802]

KZbin is starving for high quality pantheon guides!

[@shitstorm2767]

watched guide, took notes, went 1/12/4

[@raulgomez8879]

Great guide! After the rune changes where aery seems to be the most used rune for mages does this guide still apply the same way taking more prio on first strike most of the times or would you update this?

[@SgtRoebuck115]

PLEASE do more of these. Ive been craving one since the yone video. Ive mained yone since mid and peaked D2 93 LP. I really want an Azir, Ryze, or Viktor one. If yall have anyone to recommend to watch for Azir, Ryze, and Viktor please let me know.

[@kryticalhits7385]

He has a Viktor guide but its old. Should still teach gameplay concepts tho

[@octo87_c58]

Body those fools was the best Azir player in NA soloq for a long time and he has a lot of Azir videos on his channel even tho he has mostly played on his smurf accounts for the last year so his last high elo gameplay videos might be a bit outdated (especially with the Azir changes from this season). You could also watch Faker or BDD soloq Azir games( imo those 2 are the best Azir players in the world) a few of them are uploaded on KZbin by different channels. Nemesis also plays Azir from times to times. For some Ryze gameplay, your best bets are either Doinb soloq games uploaded on KZbin or Strompest but he uploads kinda rarely now. For Viktor, Dun is the best Viktor player in NA and he has a KZbin channel and PekinWoof, an educative challenger player, also plays him semi often.

[@KTSamurai1]

thanks very much for sharing this a minor quibble: for things like the rune page discussion would it be possible to use colors with a higher contrast to outline the choices? i have difficulty differentiating colors and it takes a bit of effort and squinting to see what youve highlighted. a nice sharp white circle would make this a lot easier since it emphasizes the tonal contrast rather than relying on me to tell reds/greens/blues apart obviously i can get through with a bit time and especially as you discuss the choices. but it'd be nice to be able to better read the page at a glance. thanks again

[@CoachCurtis]

Sure! Thanks for the feedback :)

[@KTSamurai1]

@@CoachCurtis you are too kind. thank you!

[@jacobjones1849]

I’m a syndra top main. Excited to see this. Syndra top is the safest blind pick for top. Don’t @ me

[@HassanKhan-wq3tk]

updated viktor guide please

[@mathfood]

Hey, Coach Curtis. What is the name of the program you use to draw?

[@CernnuOneDesign]

im really curious what champs could be a good pool champ for low elo based around syndra viktor and 1+ad champ

[@nkft1]

I spammed syndra and galio and got from p2 to d2 lol syndra is in an amazing spot

[@yiannagon]

When you take Minion Dematerializer, are there any wave clear break points to look out for - e.g. should you look to use it on 2 casters and one cannon every time? Or do you just use it on cannons for tempo or something like that?

[@CoachMysterias]

not really! its mainly used for wave control, tempo or resets :)

[@marky3018]

what exactly do you not like about spirit blossom syndra? i really like how it looks and i dont play with base syndra, so i cant tell if its pay to lose also what do you think of coven?

[@CuddleBearJP]

would it be possible to do the same for lissandra mid? I like playing syndra but I find I preform better on liss for some reason lots and lots of room for improvement obviously

[@VeventumT]

Nice guide, but didnt you say in 13.10 viedo> that you are doing guide on kassadin?

[@CoachCurtis]

Yeah but this one was more urgent given her popularity and place in meta. Kass guide is also about to be recorded

[@Mitke420]

i play her botlane, kinda simmiliar to karthus but stronger, and actualy fun

[@user-sg2pc2pc3g]

talon guide please

[@stevenspecht001]

Syndra and Orianna are my two favourite Midlaners so I'm happy to see guides for how to play them. Great work!

[@Julia-wr9xu]

What about electrocute on syndra, is it viable? She is bursty and her ult cdr sounds nice.

[@eset3649]

For me aery or FS is more about if i can use E aggressively or not. Wont get much value from FS if u cant proactively combo the opponent IE lb or trist matchup.

[@wontonjohn321]

demat question: how should i distribute them for breakpoints? or do you just use them to gain prio with cannons?

[@CoachCurtis]

Just use them for canons for prio

[@FrostPopsicle]

How do you use demat? one on each?

[@AC-vm1in]

what is the difference between viktor and syndras identities?

[@JonathanSaxon]

Does the video creator define 'pressure' during the video? I'm jumping around, only looking at the chapters I'm interested in, and he uses the word a lot. Does it just mean damage or threat of damage?

[@MADEMANxD]

First I hope all is well and both you and Tim are having a good days. My question is is Syndra a champion like Orianna where a grasp of fundamentals are the difference between a good and bad one ergo making her a good champion to learn fundamentals wave management, jungle tracking, teamfighting, etc.? or is she a champion like Annie, which if am correct (and correct me if I am wrong), where as you said with T1 hid some of his weakness?

[@CoachMysterias]

Syndra is an amazing champion to learn the fundamentals through imo!

[@MADEMANxD]

@@CoachMysterias Thank you; been debating between Orianna and Syndra, as I have noticed that my fundamentals lack at times, and am looking for a champion that will force me to play fundamentally, which I think control mages are best at. Do you on your channel have any guides on the basic fundamentals, as I try to get as many perspectives on the topics as possible.

[@antitalent2351]

Hello there. What about electrocute or comet runes ? Is it viable ?

[@CoachMysterias]

Yess electro is also very good! can be swapped in the same situations as Aery :)

[@user-mm9ve4le6m]

I just hit diamond 4 on Syndra and apparently I do everything wrong xD

[@MakZkovich]

How do you use dmats on syndra? I wish that would had been answered in the video since I still don't know what that rune offers for her besides oneshotting cannon waves. Is there any breakpoint?

[@CoachMysterias]

Dmat is not really used for breakpoints but rather to get more wave control. You can use this to cheat resets in tough lanes for example :D

[@MakZkovich]

@@CoachMysterias Okay makes sense, you basicly only use it on pushouts.

[@AriaofAbraxis]

So I have been consistently getting 36 shards and having my level up to 8 push me past 40 for my q upgrade. Am I just not playing agressively enough for stacks or is this pretty good? I'm Gold elo if that matters. Thank you both for the amazing video!

[@CoachMysterias]

there might be a little room for improvement here or there but overall its not too big of a deal. in a very good game you get it at level 7

[@jagodamaria6040]

He is fine
