Hi. Would liandrys work for syndra when facing a tanky enemy team or tanks?
Hello,
In theory, yes. Combat is drawn out long enough that Liandry's becomes the best DPS option available. I also run 18/12 with Deathfire, since that helps much better in that context than 12/18 does.
The problem is pretty much your overall damage spike is a bit slower. If you're fighting an assassin/fast midlaner, you might not be able to combo kill them 'easily'. It's a rough problem I'm still gathering actual game experience in. Theory is one thing, practice another.
In the end, Syndra doesn't have the built in tools to deal with tanks. It's a fundamental failure of her kit and Liandry's itself is just a band-aid solution. So, our hands are a bit tied on the matter.
