Small change to Zyra Q to help her midlane / no buff for support.

What if Zyra´s Q would refund like 15 mana if it kills a unit. So, no matter if you lasthit 1 or 3 minions with Q it would refund 15 mana. And if you dont lasthit anything with Q your Thornspitter is able to proc this effect once. This would help Zyra´s midlane alot and it wouldn´t buff her as a support.

She's not even that good as a support anymore. Support meta is very different than it was when she was considered OP.

Buff her E speed.

Make her passive work like Varus' Q. Make it able to go off early, but you have to wait for the full range.

The E change would buff her support power. But not enough to put her in the place she was for S3. This makes her lanning a little safer/stronger so she can focus on what's past that.

It would help her poke if she "accidentally" took a minion in bot lane, but it wouldn't really buff her support role all that much.

Her main issue is how easy it is to dodge her Q, the delay time is absolutely ridiculous and there is no reason at all that you should be hit by Zyra's Q in lane due to It's delay time, if for whatever reason you can't dodge her Q then simply buying boots will make it impossible for her to hit them on you.

Zyra right now is in a terrible spot, her idea of being a zoning CC mage is great, but due to her very high mana costs, and how easy it is to simply walk out of every single ability she has, she's a really low tier pick. They gave her room to be counterplayed, sure, but for all of the effort you put into Zyra you're not going to get much out of it in comparison to other Mages similar to her.

Eh, I would rather they do something to address how clunky she is to play right now. I'm almost certain that the reason she is so unpopular is not so bad, but because of how frustrating her kit is to use. Just fix her plant AI, give her a new passive (and probably remove the random free CDR she gets) and bump up her movement speed out of shit tier and she'll be stronger and infinitely more enjoyable to play.
