Zyra spawning plants in bush when you start recalling.

Sonic Adventure··1 votes·980 views

Hi guys, D5 Zyra main here.

Back when Zyra was recently reworked I made a thread of how she shouldn't spawn plants while in a bush due to many reasons: It'd prevent her from being able to do her signature ambushes, and it would reveal her position when hiding or recalling being a very squishy champion. Her passive was changed shortly after so it wouldn't spawn plants if she was in the bush, unless she was attacking or something.

Now, I noticed that if you're hiding in the bush and start recalling, her passive will be activated and plants will spawn randomly. I don't think this is intended, since one of the main reasons you'd go to the bush is to safely recall. There have been many times already that I'm about to escape after my teammates got killed, but a plant revealed my position when I'd start recalling. This doesn't go in line with the reason why the passive is disabled in bushes, so I'm pretty sure it's a bug. There's no reason why a slow, squishy, immobile champion like Zyra would make her own survivability even harder.

Thanks for reading,

but i somehow think that it may be good when you re in lane and you try to spawn more seed for use while it doesnt actually give them the vision in bush?

Yeah, though I don't see many situations (both in laning phase or roaming) where I would find that useful to recall to spawn seeds. The randomness of the seed spawning doesn't allow any type of reliable ambushing strategy with your passive seeds. In lane there's almost no downside to be seen if you position well. Even if there was any usefulness, it would not be enough to compensate for losing the ability to recall safely in the bush without revealing your position, especially at later stages of the game.

But regardless of if it would be worth or not, I don't think such a thing like "bush B-cancel" would make sense as a new intended mechanic of Zyra.

Thanks for your input nevertheless : )

well now riot says they will be fixing it soon. And I just keep doing the bush B cancel thing when i am in the botlane bushes now cause the seed is more "rare" now due to the CD increase and I cant let myself to waste the passive XD while they already know I am in the bush.
