Champion Portrait of Syndra
Syndra
Very Hard
35148%-170-975Very difficult matchup. She can play to one shot you throughout the game with little counterplay on your part. Rush tier 1 boots asap. Archangels isn't a terrible idea just for the utility of the shield in this matchup. Banshees could also be good based on their team composition. You really need to focus on baiting out her Qs and Ws in this lane. Trying weaving in and out of her Q/W range or faking/canceling autos or spells. Rushing mercs is viable.

Champion Portrait of Orianna
Orianna
Even
31754%-32-115You both have very similar ranges, with you having the edge. However, Orianna will outrange you significantly if you just fistfight, stand still, and throw everything at each other. So you are kind of required to play at the edge of your EE or QQ range, so you can get some short trades off without eating her QW.
Champion Portrait of Ahri
Ahri
Even
31446%-54-287You can start Q or E in this matchup level one. E start is more aggressive especially if you are running scrotch but Q start is start with W level 2. Getting early boots can help you dodge her Q and E.
