Playing as Zyra

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Grow the right plant

    Cast your spells on Garden of Thorns (passive) seeds: Deadly Spines (Q) grows a Thorn Spitter that fires at 575 range, Grasping Roots (E) a Vine Lasher that slows.

  2. Seed the path of your spell

    Cast Grasping Roots (E), then right away place a seed in its path with Rampant Growth (W): the target is rooted, and the plant that grows hits them.

  3. Enrage your plants

    Cast Stranglethorns (R) on your plants in the middle of the fight: enemies are knocked into the air 2 seconds later, and your plants, renewed, gain health and damage.

  4. Seed the brushes

    Place seeds with Rampant Growth (W) in brushes and near objectives: a champion who steps on one is revealed, and you can grow a plant there.

Playing against Lulu

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her two bolts

    Dodge Glitterlance (Q): two bolts fly out, one from Lulu and one from Pix, and each one damages and heavily slows.

  2. Engage twice

    Engage in two steps: make her use Whimsy (W), then re-engage during its 18-second cooldown.

  3. Focus her if you can reach her

    If you can reach her, focus her in teamfights: Whimsy (W), Help, Pix! (E) and Wild Growth (R) are mostly there to protect her allies.

  4. Back off from her enlarged ally

    When Wild Growth (R) enlarges one of her allies near you, back off: anyone close to them is knocked into the air, then the aura slows them.
