So illaoi can have her tentacles untargetable during hr ulti...

...yet when Zyra ultis her plants Orianna s or ball just happen to land near them and they die almost instantaneously.

Edit : I dont expect Zyra to really need invulnerable plants if hit by her ulti but maybe it should give them twice as much as health or something. Right now it feels unrewarding hitting your plants with your ulti cause they die in like 2 secs.

To be fair, zyras plants act independently of zyra so the counterplay to them is kill the plants, illaois only attack with her W (or if there's a vessel nearby) so the counterplay is kill illaoi so the tentacles stop attacking

I get what your saying but they have different mechanics that you shouldn't ignore

Yeah i get that but currently in a teamfight even if i place them nobody really tries to kill them cause they tend to just die getting hit by aoe spells. Maybe just increasing their health if they get hit by R would be sufficient

one is melee, conditioned on how many enemy are around her and cast on her self.

The other is range, not on self cast, can self position seedlings, is a HARD CC.

I can totally see why you would want to compare the 2 abilities on 2 very different champs... KAPPA

One deals tons of aoe damage and usually has about 3-4 our during a teamfight

The other does minimal damage, single target and usually has 2 out in a teamfight (not talking about the ultis about the plants/tentacles)

They seem pretty comparable to me

Zyra also applies damage from a safer distance and has better disengage/cc overall.

Her plants need changes, but they don't need to be invulnerable.

I am totally OK with different abilities from different champions working differently.

Im not saying they should work the same im just saying that illaois tentacles actually function in a teamfight while zyras plants mostly dont

I think their power is fine. Even a worst case scenario where the enemy has aoe abilities, they still have to generally use two cooldowns just to kill your pets even though your cc is way more valuable to your team anyways.

Yeah butSyndra can like throw her Q + W + E at your front line and your plants and lost like 2/3 of their health without even aiming at them Orianna throws in her ball for a Q + W + R at your teammates and all your plants die suddenly. Amumu Qs in your team and all your plants dissapear

The problem is that they dont even have to aim your plants they will die anyways. And yes all these cases have happened quite a lot.
