Riot just made Zyra jungle viable.

Zyra was always able to be played in the jungle; solid clear, good cc, strong damage. But with the addition of pets proccing red buff, she’s going to be scary. Her early game damage will look like she has a liandry’s already and that makes me so excited. Look out for Zyra jungle in your upcoming games!

lol. Yes. She's already been viable. But..... for some reason.... right now I still prefer Morgana and Evelynn....

The 150G cost reduction is going to do more to break jungle mages than the pet burn, since burn already lasts 2 rotations of auto attacks, etc, so except at Krugs and Raptors, the clear is about the same.

Also, Zyra already aoe burned with Q and E, so it's not like the burns overlap or stack.....

I don't like the idea of pushing Elise into meta when she is already pretty strong in Korea. I like the idea of making weird jngle picks viable, Zyra and Malza(Heim, Shaco as well?). Either Riot wants to see Elise or she will get nerfed soon.

I like to play her as an onhit ADC sometimes....she's got the AA range, nice engage and self-peel.....one of the few off-meta picks I've found that truly delivers. Cool to see ppl playing her in other roles, haha

She's viable but... she's still possibly one of the squishiest, least mobile junglers out there with one of the world's slowest skillshots.
