Maybe the weird query-style syntax.

If you use it properly, it's no different than map, fold, filter, etc that are ubiquitous functional higher-order functions., just with T-SQL-ly names.

Linq is so much better than doing all of what it does by hand, with for loops and temporaries galore, the way we once did.
