I think a lot of people we focusing on the wrong problems that zoe has (high dmg) so i decided to critique zoe's champion design, address what I think to be the 4 main problems that riot shipped zoe with last week. She has some super cool abilities but with how they work currently it makes her really unfun to play against

THANK YOU, I always wanted to know why 
was reworked for having safe power from range, but 
was created for that purpose ONLY.
Also "high damage, high range, low cd, low cost" cough 
Q, it's like they share a common problem...
very well said... nice video
I would like to chime in with my understanding.
The Bubble skill is easily countered by having a teammate stand in front of Zoe's missile. In other words, the counter is teamplay. (The AoE on the Q COULD be nerfed).
The bubble also gives you time to reposition or shield up if you have any active items or effects to move out of the way of zoe's attack.
The risk is that she has no escape. If you engage her at melee range, she's dead. End of story. Really no way to get away. Her ult is not an escape and is very calculable.
The ult can be used to evade some skill shots, and I like that! It's a good ult.
I'm not concerned with her low cooldowns. This champion seems to require quite a bit of skill in my opinion.
But I do agree that the bubble traverse wall distance needs to be standardized!!
And I do agree that the new champs are starting outpace the older ones.
Longer cooldowns on her spells...
Lower damage on her Q...
Lower damage amp on her bubble and fix the bubble range?
Is this what people want?
Please apply your criteria to the following champions:
Syndra Lux Ahri Orianna Zilean Anivia
All low cd, low risk, high reward and aside from Zil can zero you out from landing a CC at a completely safe range.
Difference between them and Zoe is that they also bring high utility to team fights whereas Zoe does not.
