What Happened to Zoe? – Why NO ONE Plays Her Anymore | League of Legends

I'm a Zoe main (one of the few in iron) and although I love her to death I can definitely agree that she has these issues. Laning against many characters is an absolute pain, especially popular assassins like Yone, Yasuo or Katarina. Esp Yone is unplayable because your sleepy disappears when he recasts his E. Despite these pains however, her kit is incredibly fun and diverse, and no game you play with her is like the last. You have a ton of options on how to play her and so many ways to optimize your combos. Getting that squeaky clean full combo on someone in makes you feel like a god (assuming it kills ofc) and her character, design, skins, sound effects and voice lines are a joy. So yeah. I know I get countered by something as simple as minions, but she's still the most fun I've ever had in league, especially since I don't play ranked (hence the iron). So to me her difficulties into many match ups only make the game more challenging and exciting 😀

Zoe is super gambling, landing the Q and 1 shotting someone is great, her W passive is great so long as you have sums on the ground, normally one sum is just enough to run away from the kind of champs that would catch you (for example in a pinch, i will ignite whoever is chasing me and the speed just about saves me). W is also the flex, when you do two consecutive flashes into a super range Q its very euphoric. In teamfights your role changes a lot, its often better to sleep the tank then just sail a Q towards the backline and hope for the best but that often means you have to flank which puts you in a dangerous position if the enemies have easy mobility

Well I don't play her anymore because they made it so I will never ever get to run the game again on my computer.

I picked up Zoe today and it’s actually really fun a mage you play like an assassin in lane and a line nuke it’s really fun

She needs a simple buff: More Q damage against slept targets that are close to her and to remove the TRASH that W drop sometimes.

I’m not a Zoe main but I love playing against her since it’s way easier than playing again any other mid laner. She has so many problems to me lol.

1, she’s a champ sorta like shaco where she needs to be patient and cautious with how she aims and when she throws out her abilities. Because that’s ALL her damage. Or usefulness.

2, League has countered her usefulness A LOT by making it so every champ in the game can just build a banshee’s veil or any other spell shield item to counter her ENTIRE KIT. Squishes are starting to one shot, assassins one shot, tanks don’t take any damage and somehow do the same amount of damage as her, and enchanters like karma also counter her because they just dodge with their speed and one shot her cuz she’s basically yuumi level with her cool downs up. She was a one shot BUILT champ that really can’t carry games as easier as other champs that are tankier, faster, and more useful to the team and STILL capable of one shotting the enemy. Riot balance team put too much damage in the game to where champs that are supposed to do damage are getting compared to champs supposed to only shield and heal or take less damage. Plus every new champ has a dash of some sort so closing the distance to a Zoe is so easy it’s insane. She’s a well designed champ with a clear intention, but they have put too many counters in the game for her to be any fun to play if the enemy team understands how she works. You literally just build one item and basically forget she’s in the game.

I play her everyday

Therefore you are wrong

zoes the aspect of twilight. ofc shes gonna do damage lmao

as far as snipars go, Jayce is 10 times worse.

Don't call my waifu a child you bastard, she's a petite young woman 😤

The problem for me to not play her it's because she's a pdf champ
