What do you think about Zyra?

williamfv93··1 votes·495 views

I've tried a lot of games Zyra as Ap carry, and I noticed an excellent burst damage in early (I think it's because she is used as support), but towards her damage is very low. I played a lot match and learn all her combos, but in my opinion is UP (like AP carry). What do you think about? and How do you advise me to use it?

In what she loses in damage, she makes up for in CC and overall presence. Her q is pretty spamable, and her root(or slow with seed) has high cc capabilities, let alone her MASSIVE ult knock up. I feel she is fine the way she is.

Being my main champ she is awesome. If she is built right, she is amazing for both damage and CC. Most of my games as Zyra mid, end with me having between 10-30 kills, and a ton of assists. My build order for Zyra is Deathcap or Unholy grail, depending on lane match up, what i build first, the other is always third, after sorc boots. 4th is going to be Laiandries torment, 5th is Crystal scepter, and last is either hourglass or void staff. Skill order is, Q,W,E,W till max, Q till max, and R when available.

Zyra is my main champ (mid and support), and probably one of the most op champs in the game. You have amazing aoe burst and cc, and if farmed/fed, you shouldn't have any problems with falling off late game. Build Liandry's, Sorc shoes, and Rabadon's, but keep in mind your build should always be situational. When going to lane Doran's + 2 pots is optimal. Athene's isn't necessary on her because she's not too mana hungry if you manage your mana well. Void staff, Zhonya's, and Rylai's are great pick-ups for her as well.

The reason for the Unholy grail is because of the MR, and the CDR, she has built in CDR, but the Grail lets her hit the cap with one item. As well as a nice boost to your ap. The mana regen off the chalice is also extremely useful in the laneing phase, though at end game, mana is not a problem with her. I base my decision on my first back. If i can get needlessly large rod, deathcap is first.

I completely agree with you. But in terms of ideal itemization I believe she synergies better with other items, depending on the situation.

That is true, such as a zed or talon in lane, then Seekers armgaurd is a must. But these two items are the best in terms of laning, due to either MR, with AP, or AM with AP. Those are situationally the best defensive items, if your having a rough lane. If your not building one of those two items, then 99% of the time, your building deathcap.
