... retardedly low mana costs.

You can spam and spam and spam and spam, spam over 20 rotations without going oom. Back in the day even with Athene's you couldn't do more than a few rotations and then go oom. Now with manaflow band and last chapter you are basically manaless, congrats!!! Especially the broken abilities like Zoe E that used to cost 100+ mana on older champs. Even the spammable damage abilites like Orianna W or Lux E cost 100+ mana and this broken overloaded ability that has range from beyond vision range, has 2 forms of CC, guaranties death on squishies and 50% hp lost on tanks and has a low cooldown with a cooldown reduction integrated into it costs 80 at all levels. Even balanced champs with tons of counterplay like VelKoz feels annoying due to all his abilites costing 50 mana, let alone these overloaded ones...

No offense, but Zoe needs low mana costs. Without them, she has no clear, and she misses so often vs Champs she has to compensate with more opportunities.

I know you hate her cc (which isn't actually 2.2 sec; it's 2.2 seconds DELAY before the 2 second hard cc hits, giving you time to get away), but her aoe size is small, aim is poor, and is rarely reliable until very late game.

Idk, I still go oom pretty easily. Then again, I play a champ that's had basically the sane mana costs for 7 years, ie old day mana costs, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
