Zoe, a fail of a champ

Her early game is horrible so much so that any competent player on any mid champ can beat her, or if jungler helps. Her early q dmg vs minion wave isnt that good compared to other. But even if u kill / shut her down early it doesnt matter she still does half your hp EQ with no items (almost).

I got hit by a item 1056 botlane Zoe E,Q combo and lost 50% of my hp or a bit more.

In my mind i see it like this: they were going for a champ that spams q,e and her main dmg comes from basics but it ended up as a cheeze champ where u just need to hit EQ.

She can assassinate better than Rengar Kayn Khazix Evelynn and other assassins. Since she doesnt have to get between the enemy (her ult)

Her EQ combo does around 50% of a tanks dmg..
Karma with 3k hp more than 60% reduction dmg (mr) and a shield loses more than half hp from EQ

I hope they fix this champo, from the champ teaser it looked interesting and i was eager to get to play it. Now after 3 games played I just feel bad playing her cuz i can s*ck and it doesnt matter.. and my enemy cant do nothing


I just remembered a champ. Compare Zoe and Ahri when u do all your spells as Ahri enemy is left with some hp.. so u usually want to hit the enemy with 1q or so b4 u go all in. Zoe this newb champ does half enemy hp just 2 spells

Seems like she should evolve into being a roaming support imo.

Zoe is meant to be a burst champion. while she only has 2 damaging spells her E is only really meant for a setup and her Q is where her burst comes. in trade for very high damage and "free liche bane x2", she has very thin skillshots that hit the first enemy, which makes it harder to land, and a very hard learning/mastering curve, and pretty much has no escape tools as well, making her very weak to ganks esp pre-6. While yet, she can destroy HP in just her Q, it's meant to be that way since she was directed to be a burst champ. high damage in short time, much like annie when you think about it. while yeah, her Q is busted as hell, it's also hard to land properly cuz minions and weird and unusual angles combined with her 2nd cast Q and R especially in laning phase. So overall, very high damage for very high difficulty level. Saying she's cheese champ is kind of overexaggerated. Cheesing is "strategies or ways of playing that are really powerful and do not require much skill from the players side at the same time." She does require an amazing amount of critical thinking, math (yes i said math) and above all split nanosecond decisions, fast fingers, timing and calculating and committment to learn and practice the fuck out of her, making the need for a very high amount of skill and practice a nessessity for her. like they said in her champ reveal she is not a easy champion and it will take a very long time for someone to learn and master her

this is just my opinion anyways. im terrible with her, but i'm slowly learning how at the very least she works.

I'm really puzzled about her W tho. Nobody talks about the useless passive it gives that barely deals any damage (the one after your use a sums)
