Akshan vs Syndra

Updated Jun 5, 2026

Overview

Use Akshan's high early lane pressure to deny Syndra safe sphere setups and force her into reactive play.
Prioritize snowballing through early trades and roams to prevent Syndra from scaling into her burst windows.

Trading pattern

Trade short bursts with autos and (Q), then reposition immediately with (E) to dodge (E) stun.
Avoid engaging when (E) is ready; punish her if she wastes or misses it.
Use (W) camouflage to create unpredictable angles and pressure Syndra's positioning safely.

Danger windows

Respect (E) stun combined with sphere placement as a lethal all-in threat.
Avoid risky commits after missing (E) engage, as Akshan is vulnerable to counterattacks.
Be cautious of Syndra's level 6 (R) burst; maintain spacing and cooldown awareness to survive.

Early game

Push early waves with autos and (Q) to disrupt Syndra's poke and sphere control.
Track (E) cooldown to avoid her stun and punish when it's down.
Use (E) to punish Syndra's overextensions but avoid committing if (E) can be interrupted or missed.

Power spikes

At level 2, use (Q) and (E) combo aggressively when (E) is on cooldown to force trades.
At level 6, leverage (R) for kill pressure or safe roams, respecting Syndra's ultimate threat.
After completing first AD item, increase wave pressure and trade confidence while monitoring Syndra's burst potential.

Win conditions

Use (E) to punish missed (E) stuns and create roam opportunities to snowball.
Deny Syndra safe sphere setups by aggressively controlling waves and forcing short trades.
Leverage (W) camouflage and mobility to avoid burst windows and set up kills post-level 6.

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