Zyra REALLY needs a buff.

Okay so, let's all admit it: Zyra has been dead in the mid-lane since season 3. It's curious that this was a champion designed for the mid-lane, yet now when you pick Zyra, her starting items are all support items. This is not okay. As someone who has loved and has mained Zyra since her release, in this new meta you can barely call her "rise of the thorns" as opposed to "touch of a withered petal" (I mean, in comparison to various other midlaners). Any other arguments against the aforementioned are anathema to me, since I simply do not care for anyone who says otherwise. Here it comes: "Well, she's a dps mage, and she is suppose to zone with her plants. Any good Zyra would know how and where to land a plant." Are you joking me? Compared to Azir and Heimer, her flowers are pathetic! They die in about 2-3 hits, also they don't prioritize champions. You'd think she would be good at zoning somewhat, but guess what, those flowers are as slow in intellect as Zyra is overall. She is extremely slow par--EVERYTHING. Her movement speed, the delay in her Q, and her E (root) might as well just have a huge sign saying: "LOOK, I'M ABOUT TO SHOOT MY ROOT IN YOUR DIRECTION, BETTER DODGE." It's awful what Riot has done to Zyra, the constant nerfs have left her almost unplayable in the mid-lane. I mean, yes, you could play her, but she would just get destroyed by champions like Zed, Ahri, Leblanc etc.,

This new meta seems to prioritize mobility which is not something that Zyra has at all. So here's my suggestion: 1) Raise her movement speed FOR GOD SAKE. 2) Make her root move quicker, the thing is slow as hell. I swear, even a dead beetle could dodge the damn thing. 3) raise her base HP or give her a dash or something. Just rework her so she is playable again in the midlane. Please. That is all.
