Syndra vs Aphelios Matchup Summary
The Syndra vs Aphelios matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 13 recent matches analyzed, Aphelios wins with a 53.9% win rate compared to Syndra's 46.1%, giving Aphelios a 7.7 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Aphelios controls the early laning stage, but Syndra outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Aphelios needs to press advantages before Syndra reaches their power spikes, while Syndra should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Syndra leads by 1.1s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Aphelios has a strong advantage in this matchup. Syndra players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Aphelios overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
