Zoe rework/nerf suggestion.

OK, so I need some feedback on these thoughts of mine about Zoe. Zoe has a lot of damage and really early as well if she lands her combo. She also has a lot of damage if she manages to poke you with both direct hit and if it spashes. Her E provides too much utility and power to be a basic ability in its current state.

My suggestion to nerf her is to move her bubble to her R and increase the cd of it by a bit and put her current ult onto her E.

The main thing with Zoe is that her E Q combo deals a heavy amount of damage and has a low cool down. Moving the 2 skills will still have a combo for her, just wont provide the drowsy and sleep. It gives more outplay potential to the enemy who she is laning against as the combo will be more obvious and easier to dodge but still hurt if it hits, and it will give her the ability to dodge skill shots from the same enemy as well.

Zoe is fine when a champ doesn't play dumb. The worst Zoe experience I've had so far was an Orianna vs her, where the Orianna pushed out several times, only to have Udyr set up an easy sleep for her. Orianna died like 7 times, in the middle of her lane, just feeding Zoe and Udyr kills/assist through the combo cc and easy combos. She didn't bother to build ANY resist, and by the time Zoe was on the rest of our team, she was able to murder a poor Our Yasuo (go figure; melee), Our Face tanking Sejuani (again; go figure; Melee), and our top was feeding a Garen.

I was nami and innately had low HP.... BUT.....1) when she drowsied me, I'd Flash back and use W to heal up (can't hit out of range, and if she does, dealing with full hp, and my resist). She was very good at hitting bubbles, which lead to Bubble spam. Still..... Nami resulted in her dying 4 times.

Just. Don't feed her. Play passive. Wait for the ganks. Don't put walls between you and her. Clear wards so she can't see you through walls. Poke her when she R's. Make her miss her bubble so it goes on a longer cooldown.

She is oppressive when fed, but still dies, and I can drop her down to where she never kills me.

The only nerf that I could see happening is an elimination of cooldown reduction on E and a .5 reduction to E's overall CD to justify it. If she's a Zoe that hits bubbles, she can cast them very often, to the point that she doesn't get punished for spamming.

idea is terrible especially this "Moving the 2 skills will still have a combo for her, just wont provide the drowsy and sleep" zoes damage relies heavily on if she lands her e to stun them so she can hit a long range q

Kind of terrible idea. Let's make it so Zoe can't combo anyone and only really has 1 damaging ability before level 6.

Lmao hilarious considering that I don't think she has a cooldown over 10 sec.
