Zyra Changes That Could Possibly Help Her Midlane

Passive:

• CD: 13/11.75/10.5/9.25 --> 14/12/10/8

Q:

• Shape change?
• Range: 800 --> 850 (W's range)
• Plant duration when spawned by this ability: 5-7.5 --> 4-8 based on level
• Base damage: 60/95/130/165/200 --> 70/105/140/175/210
• Ap ratio: 60% --> 65%
• CD: 7/6.5/6/5.5/5 --> 8/7/6/5/4
• New effect: Enemies hit by this ability take 30% bonus damage from any plant summoned for 4 seconds (damage from plants goes from 18-70 (+20% AP) to 23.4-91 (+26% AP)

W:

• Recharge time: 20/18/16/14/12 --> 21/18/15/12/9
• Plant base damage: 29-114 --> 20-75 18-70
• Ap ratio: 15% --> 20%
• Plants deal 60% bonus damage to minions

E:

• Plant duration when spawned by this ability: unchanged
• Base damage: 60/95/130/165/200 --> 55/95/135/175/215
• Ap ratio: 50% --> 60%
• New effect: Enemies hit by this ability take 30% bonus damage from any plant summoned for 4 seconds

R:

• CD: 130/120/110 --> 130/115/100
• Ap ratio: 70% --> 75%

Goals:

• Remove the awkward range difference between her Q and E
• Make her scale better with AP (better ratios on Q, plants, E and R)
• Give back strength to her basic abilities (Damage, CD and range on Q, damage and E) by removing some damage from plants when no ability hits (lower plant damage: breakeven point when no ability hits is around 900 AP)
• Give her more ways to spawn multiple plants (lower Q and W CD at later ranks, lower passive CD later into the game) by reducing her early game strength (lower plant damage early, lower Q plant duration early)
