Zyra being nerfed SUCH A BUST

I used to loooove playing Zyra, she used to do as much as she needed early game, and did even better late game. Now during laning phase, I cant get any heavy pressure on the enemies because my plants dont even target the champions anyway, anymore... so that sucks... I honestly believe she was balanced before because, depending on your macros, that could win or lose you the game, how good you were as a player. You might say she did too much dmg before, but that only leaves the options to play other high dmg dealing champs bot-lane, such as Brand, Veigar, and Brand for example. You guys release an amazing skin, then nerf her, and now she's barely played anymore.
