Why is Zyra also the best defensive support?

It's rare that I see a useless Zyra. That damage though.

Its hard to be useless on her. You go into a lane and realize you either have to prioritize peel or poke and thats the hardest decision you need to make XD

Zyra and blitz are my most hated supports. Just their presence alone makes me have to play extremely carefully.

idk how it's even possible to be useless on Zyra. You just afk and stack seeds, use one spell and force the enemy botlane out.

Velzard of KozJan 24, 20173 votes

Some people simply forget to build fertilizer on her.

This. You basically don't even have to aim in teamfights, just hammer all the buttons and some plants will pop up and start shooting everything.

I thought you'd say something equally dumb like "She always plan(t)s ahead"

Yeah well VelKoz really shines in that matchup to be completely honest. Yeah, Zyra is a support, And Vel is naturally a mid main. But as OP as she is given she just stands behind her plants, which can do massive damage and peel for her adc, VelKoz has a Q that really just makes harassing easy. You may make your ADC a bit mad but if you have any skill with Vel, you can get his stacks, throw a good burst on the supp or ADC, and send them both back to base as soon as they return to lane.

You can do this over and over. Normally I HATE cheese picks. I cannot stand seeing Illaoi Bot lane as a "support" and I think if see another Diana supp, I am likely going to go Velkoz as well. If you build a balance of AP/Health/Mana/CDR. Vel will sustain in lane, be able to fight if the ADC is away, and can set up the easiest picks for a JG or the ADC. All it takes is one knock up. W,E,W,Q. (now he's one shot and unless your ADC sucks, you wont have to cast a last second Q.)

Let the hateful responses commence.

MEMES AND GAMES.

IT CAN NOT BE THAT DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND DAMNIT.

Everytime someone makes joke like this, I scroll all the way down to find that one comment that turns single-line joke into three paragraph epic adventure novel about balance.

That was me once. I'll admit it. I got baited.

LeeSin I took the Q.

Oh no we should switch M&G with balance bored then maybe it would make sense in his world.

WhaiiSoSeriousJan 25, 20172 votes

That champ is so toxic man as support. And she never fucking runs out of mana.

Noticed M & G tag.

Pommel KnightJan 24, 20171 votes

Yea and she kills the other bot laners before they can harm your adc.

That pun was bad and you should feel bad.

Savage132151Jan 25, 20171 votes

I disagree. I run Zyra supp and I am very rarely ever bullied out of lane. I run Spelthief's and run AP. Land your vines and you have nothing to worry about as long as you build AP and Magic Pen.
