Syndra vs Locke Matchup Summary

The Syndra vs Locke matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 77 recent matches analyzed, Syndra wins with a 52.0% win rate compared to Locke's 48.0%, giving Syndra a 3.9 percentage point advantage. Syndra dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Locke players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Syndra leads by 1.0s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Syndra has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Locke'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.

5.6Locke
Syndra significantly out-farms Locke by 1.1 CS per minute, accumulating an estimated 16 CS lead by mid game.

Damage
924Syndra
882Locke
Syndra deals 42 more champion damage per minute than Locke. While noticeable in extended trades, this gap can be offset by Locke choosing favorable fight windows, such as engaging when Syndra's key abilities are on cooldown or trading immediately after dodging a skillshot.
Economy
12,706Syndra
12,843Locke
Syndra and Locke generate nearly equal gold per game, with just a 136 gold difference. Neither champion has a clear economic advantage, so gold leads will depend on individual play quality, kill participation, and objective contributions.
Utility
1.4Syndra
0.4Locke
Syndra brings significantly more crowd control than Locke, with 1.0 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. Locke should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
379Syndra
1,008Locke

This massive durability gap means Locke can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Syndra is forced to recall.
