Is that she's mentally exhausting to play. I have a good deal of respect for folks who can play her multiple games and keep sharp focus throughout. After about 10 minutes games feel like an endless series of split second decisions of positioning and skill shots without much time for a mental breather.
I am interested to see what her play will be like in the pro level under high pressure situations. I feel like she can be nerve wracking on both sides of the competition.
1: nobody asked 2: she isn't actually that hard. she's overrated for being "hard" let me explain why: -her e moves insanely fast, with stupid range, it gives her easy setup for her q and oneshot an adc/carry (or even a tank) -her e also rewards her for missing, a 4 second trap that is bullshit and you never expect running into it since she already missed her e, so you shouldn't have to worry? -her w is rng based and you can just mash the button tbh -her ult is just setup for her q, you can do this at funky angles to make yourself look good at the champion if you want to -her q has insane scaling and can easily one shot an adc with one paddle star, which is kind of stupid since it has litterally no cd thus making it have no downside to missing
She's skill intensive until you hit an E on an enemy champion that has nothing to block for them Then she becomes as simple as pressing Q twice, and completely blowing them up If she had to throw in another Q or her ultimate then she would always be skill intensive and balanced
Watch faker play her. He blows my mind with what he does with her.
One of these days someone's going to upload a video of themselves playing Full Crit Zoe. Once that happens, then we'll really know her skill cap.
I think if you can play a good Thresh, you can play a good Zoe.
Not to say that Thresh is easy, but he is very mechanically intensive with large hitboxes. Very much like Zoe.
Lux, Faker already has a slew of Zoe games posted at high tier play. He basically spams and misses nothing, but also isn't given the opportunities to hyper carry like lower tier games. Like other champs, players know her and don't give him 1 shot opportunities. His highest kills per game is like 13. And that's with him missing nothing. if it was him vs Bronze, he'd prob go 45/0. If it was him vs Gold, I'd guess 30/2. If it was Him vs Plat, maybe 22/4. Diamond 18/5. Challenger about 13/5.
But that's not saying same tier teams can produce insane results like that.
This he calls "Insane Carry" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfvUV642VMU
I'm sure it's more of a score than he's offered with most champs, but even then it's hardly a hyper carry. He zones his area very well, farms well, but he doesn't go all 1v5.
I thought her irritating and obnoxious VO was the hardest part of playing her.
