Thoughts for Zyra update

Hi! I'm Cubism, active support main, and Zyra enthusiast. While she's not who I play most, I find myself picking her often, and enjoying her even more.

Let's talk about her abilities.

Passive: What a lot of Zyra players find to be her weakest aspect. The damage is so-so, but delay makes it clunky, as well as short-lived. I think I see where Riot was trying to go with it though, seeing as how all of Zyra's abilities have a delay. (Less-so her E, but still). Again, the issue with this is that it has no interaction like the rest of her abillities. Let's not forget about those perfect Zyra games where it's useless.

Changes: Personaly I think it needs to be scrapped in general, for something more ineractive with her plants. However, the plant/passive form could be kept for something else, an alternate plant maybe?

I almost have a sort of morph mechanic pictured, that I can't quite put into words. Maybe something similar to Xerath's old ability where he would root himself, except it would grant Zyra more interaction with her plants?

Q: Zyra's basic poke tool. Simple, impactful, and flows well into her playstyle. However, the ranged plants they spawn are meh. Wether I'm support or mage Zyra, I always feel I'm not utilizing her ranged plants to their fullest. This might just be me, but I'd like to know from her other players.

Changes: Her Q itself is great, but I feel her ranged plants could have more presence, like allowing players to either use her Q as poke, OR, use her seeds (W) with the Q, and make them target the enemy, giving an advantage compared to Q, though I hope there could be a difference between ranged plants and Heimer turrets. (Q+W > Q)

W: My favorite part of Zyra's kit. They're versatile, and not only provide meaningful decisions to the enemy, but the player too. "Do I use them now into my E for burst on my enemy? Or keep poking and spread my plants around to help me farm/push the lane?"

The decisions get even more meaningful once Zyra has her ultimate. "Do I use my ult now with my team to catch the enemy by suprise? Or do I wait and ult with plants down for some underestimated teamfight potential?"

I'm putting this on hold for now, and will continue later, but I want to hear your opinions on my thoughts so far, and any suggestions for Rise of the Thorns you have!
