Playing against Zoe

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

1

Dodge her E (bubble) at all costs: if you fall asleep, the follow-up Q deals massive bonus damage.

2

Her bubble stays on the ground as a trap: don't walk into the bubbles on the ground in lane.

3

When Zoe R's, she ALWAYS returns to her starting position — place your skillshots at her return location.

4

Mobile champions counter Zoe because her burst depends on landing the static E.
