160k Zyra player here. She has multiple pros and cons from the update. Slightly lower skill floor, better zone control, a lot less burst, more plants, no more free CDR to name a few. Best way to kill her is early burst, because she is still incredibly squishy. High pressure encounter in bot lane will make her play safe and struggle to throw autos and spells. Q isn't that easy to hit, E has a very fair hit box for enemies. Also, you can't really claim her as unfair when we have bullshit such as Ekko and Zed . There are far worse champions that exist who can do what she does and more.

Just because zed counters her he isn't cancer. Zyra is oppressive against non mobile champions like jhin.

Pretty sure the old zyra can be more oppressive against non mobile champions. Why would pick jhin into zyra when you can pick Lucian lol? Just pick Janna or naming and thier shields or heal will neglect all Zyra pokes.

They just fixed a lot of the problems she has in her kit. Don't have to basic attack for plants to attack. They stick to targets better. The movement speed and health buff is under stated how good this was.

The simple answer is that old zyra was garbage and the new one isn't, hence why she got a lot stronger but still isn't too strong.

I'll admit her plant ai in mid lane is rather silly to play against, she still has a lot of bad matchups and ways to play around her, but it still doesn't feel very fun to play against.

Yeah Zyra is pretty stupid... was my second most played champion now I can't even enjoy playing her cause its just so braindead easy I think a lot of people wanted more plants but REAL Zyra mains didn't want it to be like this... skill floor got dropped immensely
