Jayce vs Syndra Matchup Summary

The Jayce vs Syndra matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 19 recent matches analyzed, Jayce wins with a 52.6% win rate compared to Syndra's 47.4%, giving Jayce a 5.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Syndra controls the early laning stage, but Jayce outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Syndra needs to press advantages before Jayce reaches their power spikes, while Jayce should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Syndra leads by 0.9s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Jayce has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Syndra's strengths is important. Trade when cooldowns are favorable, track the enemy jungler, and build toward your strongest item spikes to convert the slight advantage into a decisive lead. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
822Jayce
899Syndra

Economy
13,430Jayce
13,619Syndra
Jayce and Syndra generate nearly equal gold per game, with just a 189 gold difference. Neither champion has a clear economic advantage, so gold leads will depend on individual play quality, kill participation, and objective contributions.
Utility
0.4Jayce
1.3Syndra
Syndra brings significantly more crowd control than Jayce, with 0.9 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Syndra far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Jayce should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
726Jayce
373Syndra
Jayce vastly out-sustains Syndra, healing and mitigating 353 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Jayce can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Syndra is forced to recall.

Best Jayce Build Against Syndra

Crimson Lucidity is the optimal boots choice against Syndra, providing the mobility and stats Jayce needs most in this matchup. The top-performing core items for Jayce against Syndra are Opportunity, Serylda's Grudge and Edge of Night. This combination gives Jayce an effective balance of damage, survivability, and utility for the matchup.

Syndra late game win rateSyndra36.4%

Syndra dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 62.5% win rate — a 25.0 percentage point lead over Jayce. This lopsided early game means Syndra can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Jayce is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 63.6% win rate — 27.3 points above Syndra. Extended games heavily favor Jayce, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

This matchup features a dramatic power shift: Syndra must aggressively press their early advantage and close out the game before Jayce reaches their scaling breakpoints. If Jayce survives the laning phase without falling too far behind, the matchup flips in their favor. Dragon and Rift Herald control are pivotal — the team that secures early objectives can snowball or buy time to scale.
