I understand that Zyra is balanced, but playing against her is awful.
She bursts a crap ton and while sure she trades that for her immobility and squishyness its just sucks to play against.
She zones you very hard in lane, especially if she has somone like MF, and her Q+E combo is not fun either. You have to dodge both a fast moving skillshot from her and one from another position. Its effectively dodging too skillshots from two champions as her Q comes from a weird angle. And even if you dodge both her Q and E her plants will still get you.
Unlike other pet champions her plants don't need to even be controlled. Trying to step on her plants often results in her just spawning them before you step on em.
She's just so unfun to play against even if she's balanced.
