Making Zoe feel clunky is not the answer, but that's exactly what Riot has done.

Please reconsider these Zoe nerfs and swap them for some form of nerf to her damage. As a Zoe player, I have been thoroughly enjoying the champ, but she definitely is too strong. That said, making her feel terrible and clunky when trying to execute a high level combo that takes practice and that once felt smooth when accomplished is not the answer. And while I'm not sure what the answer is, it's not changing the way she feels for the worse when pulling off her most avid combo - and should never be the answer for any champion in my opinion.

So please please please reconsider this nerf as quickly as possible, because from what I've played and read, it makes not only me but al ot of other people who have played the champ really not want to play her anymore because now she just feels awful.

What she needs to be balanced as a BURST MAGE is actual mana costs and cooldowns. Right now she can miss a Q and toss out another one 2 seconds later to still one-shot people. Particularly, increase its mana cost from ranks, so it can still be used for its poke early, and increase its cooldown drastically.

less people playing a champion is riots first step to balance.

The problem is they put all her dmg in one ability. Nerf Q and buff E dmg.

That is a normal for anything like this.

While it doesn't feel the same as the original QQR combo, I have found that performing QRQ feels less clunky than attempting to perform the QQR combo in the same way you would've before patch 8.1. Although, this is simply what I have found to help myself remedy the missing "feeling" you get when you correctly executed the QQR combo. That is, of course, if you are attempting to recreate it in the first place.
