How to beat Zoe

Play Morgana, build banshee, mercs, hourglass. In lane be aggressive, when you get a clear shot shield up, run at her, bind, soil, ignite if you can kill. Use ult if you are sure you can land it.

Easy kills, if you slip up shield before sleeping, it should block enough to survive and heal up from pot and spell amp.

In team fights save bubble victims or charge Zoe ult and hourglass before you sleep.

Pretty straightforward, only trouble comes up if teammates get picked off while away from you.

Fiddle, malz, fizz, Diana, zed all can also either all in or safely zone.

I took Morg sup against a Zoe game and it was literally too easy. Just pick the targets Zoe's going to pick... (your engage / your vulnerable carry) Shield someone if they ever fall asleep... walk forward when she's being aggressive and drop a Q where her ult resets to (people expect you to dodge back from most skillshots). Easy Cheesy.

It's fun with Thresh too- fall asleep on purpose, shield, cast your Q and hook their carry when you're napping- hook her out of ult.

Seriously Zoes are going to be renowned for outplaying themselves one day. We need a catchy phrase ala Vayne-Spotting.

Faker did a pretty good job last night against Zoe in lane and she was still destroying people at 20 minutes. I think he ended up something like 1-7-3 or something? It seemed that the best case scenario was to go even against her while she wails on people late game. Even decimated that two part slow sleep is enough to take someone out of fights long enough for your team to hit the right targets. In another match, Jarvan almost never saw an engage due to having to lance to the back line in almost ever fight to stay alive.

It seems her damage is way out of line, on short cool downs (even after the nerf) and has a sleep that basically cannot be stopped. When you add shooting through walls, jumping over walls, a puddle that has to be dodged even when missed, and a slew of summoner spells? She would still be a pain to deal with after a 50% damage nerf, 5 seconds added to every cool down, and no ability to take summoner spells. Riot really gave her way to much utility in a single kit.
