This shows that there is a somewhat important synergy between Syndra and Leona that allows them to perform at the top of their game together than without each other.

Leona has a much lower diffuclty than Syndra. That means Syndra players don't need to be careful when finding Leona allies to play with, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

When playing together, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to provide a lot of utility for your team. Together, these two may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Conversely, by bringing Syndra and Leona together, you may not be giving your side much anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to include other champions on your team that nullifies this gap in this pairing's abilities.
