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 Seraphine

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge her Beat Drop

    Dodge Beat Drop (E), especially if you're already slowed: it roots a slowed target and stuns an immobilized one.

  2. Back off before her third spell

    Count her basic spells and back off before the third: Stage Presence (passive) casts it twice, whether it damages, slows or shields.

  3. Spread out from your allies

    Spread out from your allies against Encore (R): each champion hit extends its range, and a charmed ally near you lets it reach you.

  4. Target her: she has no dash

    If you can engage, target Seraphine: her kit has no dash to escape.
