Playing Alongside Zoe
Hey guys, this post doesn't have anything to do with Zoe's power levels or balance so go away.
I'd like to start a conversation with you about how to play around Zoe's E as a team. If you didn't know, it isn't a stun. It puts the enemy to sleep until they take damage and then procs some true damage. Lately I've noticed when I land her E my team often wakes the person up before I land anything else and the enemy dashes away to survive. That isn't a huge deal but I think much like "Don't chase Singed"; we could use a "Don't wake up Zoe's target" general rule. It isn't nearly as absolute. Here is the calculus:
Can you kill the enemy in one burst? Is Zoe out of range of them? Is the sleep CC nearly over? Do you want to chain CC? If so, go ahead and womp on that sleepy head! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs] Does Zoe have a full range Q halfway complete likely for sleeping target? Would it benefit the team for the enemy to stay asleep and out of the fight? Does the enemy have high mobility? If so, you should probably let Zoe wake them up with 1200 damage! [sg-zephyr] I hope this post came off the right way. I love my teammates, but I feel with new champs comes lack of consensus. This is exciting but I think we can solidify the playing around Zoe's E meta in this thread. What do you guys think?
