Zoe 8.4 thoughts

Hi guys, To add some content to what i am saying and a basis of my thoughts, I am a gold five support main in ranked and play mid as my secondary. I play Zoe a lot more in normals and got mastery 7 on her quite quickly. She is now my third highest mastery points, so now that we have some background and know that I am trash gold lets continue. Zoe needed nerfs, plain and simple and that is coming from someone who lives her. I do think this patch went in the right direction, just a little too far. Decreasing Q damage and increasing W and passive damage is a great way to move her power so her kit isn't as toxic to play against. The cleanse update, no more CDR on hit go E, and the teleport no longer dropping are great nerfs that were well needed. The only nerf that seemed to push her off a cliff was the Q nerf. Decreasing her wave clear was good by no longer applying more sparkles to all enemies hit but halving the AP ratio with that made it overboard. Both nerfs were needed to some extent though, so what may be a good compromise that would put her in a healthy, but playable state is make it so her Q has a 0.3 scaling on AP. This puts her halfway between her very weak state right now and her overpowered state beforehand. Her wave clear was also pushed a bit too far back to allow her to be a roam champ, which is part of why she is a good pick. AGAIN HER Q SHOULD NOT 1 SHOT THE CASTER MINIONS, but its should do a decent push to allow roams. With this in mind and still wanting to maintain the counter play of body blocking for a slept teammate, making the Q apply half of more sparkles (passive) damage to all others hit past the first and full more sparkles to the first hit would make it so she can't shove with only 2 Q (would require 4-6 depending on how fed you got, where right now a full wave takes anywhere from 5-8 excluding minion damage and spamming ultimate to max range the q). So now that I have said my thoughts, I would love to hear other peoples thoughts or if anyone disagrees/agrees with my thought process on this. Thank you guys for reading and please comment so both I and riot can see :) -Sincerely Jeggy
