yet another trollpick surpasses Zyra as a support champ

we had: Irelia, Nautilus, Sejuani (yup), Maokai, Veigar (RIP), Syndra and God knows who else picked as supports

yet Zyra is nowhere to be seen after the huge 3.13 nerf wich deleted her from pro play in one single patch

Actually first and foremost she is a mage and i'd be much happier if we'd see a buff to her midlane capabilities first .

I'd be happy to get rid of the 10% Cdr on her seed, if they gave her a better passive.

Zyra is superstrong. Funny how biased you are towards your main

look, i did quit a month ago due to the horrible state of botlane, i won't return before they fix it somehow, it is insanely depressing to tryhard like a dog playing Zyra vs terrible players even risking to lose when i could go Leona or Janna and collect my freelo

i think i will never return because Riot has got a crush on tank supports while mage supports aren't ever allowed to be viable

I'm going to tell a secret i haven't told anyone. I am a support main and how i got to plat is Zyra.

The 3.13 was mostly a buff to her end game and the biggest hit was to her ult which wasn't needed.

Zyra destroys janna and leona bot.

Janna is a joke.

Leona will give a tougher time because she is tankier, but she has no sustain. How i win against leona bot is by poking "LEONA" down below 50% before the ADC, because a full HP leona can solo your ADC so you don't want her getting the chance to think she can engage and survive.

If the ADC tells you to focus the enemy ADC don't listen. They are just bad, patience will go along way.

then stop complaining.

If you feel leona or janna are easy mode then go play the easy mode champions.

That's what I do.

Doesn't mean I'm happy with the current state of Zyra. Poke supports in general are really suffering right now, and you'd have to be a crazy person to think Zyra is a competitive solo lane pick.

Solo lane, Now that is a different story.

She doesn't need a buff, she needs a meta shift.

see you in 2020, when 54 metas have come and gone, and still no sign of Zyra

wanna bet?

if they don't buff Zyra, no meta shift ever will bring her back, ever

tag me, and answer me back in 2020

This meta is actually pretty great for her. Great for a lot of immobile mages actually.

The frontline they get from the current meta allows them to dish out the damage from the backline without assassins getting in their face as easily as they did in S4.

Mid Zyra is bonkers strong with item 3285

People don't believe the damage she does

Lol.

You don't need item 3285 for people to be amazed of her damage.

great item on her tho

hypertanks and cc bots are what's in meta right now. Zyra is just too squishy and immobile to be worked in. I would love for them to give her a passive though, since right now it does shit damage and it's retarded hard to hit.

The only zyra buff I think would be cool is if grasping roots stopped dashes. Its not easy to hit, so it would be a great reward. And the move seems like it would literally snatch people as they try to escape. Other than that, though, she just needs the meta to change a bit. Then she will be a lot better.
