There are some queries that are actually easier to compose in LINQ syntax than even in SQL. However, like everyone else, I rarely find myself actually using it. Anything really complex is done in pure SQL and everything else is method syntax. But it is slightly more expressively powerful than SQL and way easier to follow, if you need it, than the method syntax.
