      @@itsjustawhiteguy i think, way back, that the DMG scaling on the plants was part of the reason. Can't remember. But I never used the e for damages in the first place. It is a bind and I literally used it only for the initiations and binding purposes. The slow on the plants is also way worse than the value you would get from the q plants too. It never made sense to me.

      @@wolfdeathnogames5314 Not gonna argue with the other picks, but VS olaf you most definetly shouldn't look to extend a CC that won't work on him. You're at lvl 4 when he is 5, after that any point you put in E, if it is just for him is wasted. Not to mention, even at 4, you're increasing the root to 1.25 seconds from 1, while olaf, at level 5 will slow you for 35% for up to 2,5 seconds.
      Also by putting a point in E you give up 5 damage, which even if low, are quite relevant during laning, by level 5 you're giving up 10 dmg per single cast, but you also should consider that Q at lvl 3 is on a 6 seconds CD compared to 12 Seconds from E.
      Simply put, even if I don't play Zyra, the math looks off, and to my understanding, her strenght is her poke potential, not hard CC.

  • @lionsdeath225
    @lionsdeath225 Рік тому +59

    You should max E first as every point put into E will increase the root duration. If you do not max E people can just walk out of your E R combo.
    Rank 1 E has a 1s snare which scales up to 2s at Rank 5.
    Plant damage does not scale with points put into each ability so maxing Q falls off as soon as the laning phase ends.
    I do agree with maxing W second though as the cdr it gives is really good especially bcs Zyra's damage is very plant dependent.
    Maxing W gets especially annoying as soon as you have Rylai's as you can just spam spawn plants to zone enemies off objectives like baron/dragon.

      but when are you ever gonna hit E during the laning phase is the question. Q guarantees the poke and procs the ranged plants. You cannot guarantee that you hit E all the time as well. The main goal is to poke your enemies out of lane and not all in everytime. By the time you hit lvl 9 the laning phase is practically over so there's not much use for maxing E if you have allies that can cc chain the enemies.

      Your adc will only lose minions cuz of enemy poke/engage risk, if you hold on to your E as zyra and keep poking them in lane you will make your lane easier to your adc so even gold players can last hit.
      Missing last hit against zyra plant is so hard pre 10 mins (zyra gets liandry).

    @easymov4821 2 дні тому

    Happy new year, also as a main Zyra player for the last 2 years and top 33 Euw with her, i max E > W > Q or Q > W > E , here is the reason
    Max E gives more root time also with more damage, making good setup for kills, better roam in early and help for ganks, you can easily get double root in botlane or triple if you defend a gank.. Also more root time means the plants summoned with the E will slow, so give more time to attack them (60% slow with two plants, for what ? 3 secs with the root ? that's insane dps), i tend to max it when it's a matchup i'm good with, or against a melee supp to punish him when he try to farm
    On the opposite, maxing Q gives less cooldown on the Q, yes, more poke dmg, yes, but i maxe it only when i'm playing against a double range botlane
    So yes, maybe maxing Q is better in an every situation, but i personnaly find maxing E more attractive in term of easy dps (Also having an enemy root makes the meteor rune hit 100%)
    That's how i play ^^
    Thank you for the video still !

    @artaleasham4105 Рік тому

    Idk but I max E first as a support, and carry games because of the increased cc. Maxing Q might offer more damage, but it gives you less strength to stop a teammate from making a mistake/less supportability for the adc.
    While you shouldn't be reliant on your team, if isn't grandmaster or extremely high elo, E max is the way to go. Because in higher elo your team knows how to survive ganks, and in low elo they simply dont, so you need a different playing style there. You could argue about transitioning at a certain point though.
    In low elo, enemies are also worse at dodging. So maxing E is far more valuable. Getting that 1 pick with a 2.5 second root can win a fight before it happened.

    As a diamond zyra main, not how I do it at all. Everyone has their own style ofc. But start E, then W, then Q, maxing W and E first. (Root duration is much more useful) (plant regen time also).
    The trick is that Zyra players don’t use is plant placements. When you use E, while it’s travelling you place the plants where you want them as it gives no time for a reaction (this also tricks the enemy) you can literally place it directly on them as the E is travelling. (Whenever they are even if your E misses)
    Ideally you want to hit the E and place plants on them or behind them while the E is moving. If you see that the enemy is going to dodge the E, then you place the plants where they will move to (while the E is also still travelling).
    (Make sure you also get the hit box trained so you know how far you can place plants and still proc them with the E)
    Once you master the timing on the E travel and the plant placements, you’re golden. You only want to use the Q to get extra damage once you hit E and W on them.
    This is also how you can block Naut Q’s, blitz, and thresh easily when you train how to place them while using E. you can also do that with the Q. But I find the E tricks the enemy better and faster to use the combo. As you can stun, plant and Q. Whereas if you Q, W, or W, Q, is much harder to then hit E or hit as much in total.
    Also while an enemy is running you want to do the same E then W as the E reaches max distance. This slows them while also giving no reaction times for the enemy as it’s unavoidable.

W next because your plants are you main mid game tool and you decided which whether Q or E to proc it.

Abuse bush, zone with Q/W/passifs, and when there are opportunités ( and there are a lot) try to root. Like when adc will AA a cs/ supp will targon or try to poke a little bit. When you roam mid or invade jgl with your jgl, hit with E almost egal to 100% death, you have enought burst.

    As a zyra player, q max is the absolute last for me, since for mid to late game you don't care about hitting it at all, you just spam it with w from safe distance, to zone ppl away and proc the burn/slow. In laning phase it's cool to hit q for plants target prio, but if you don't wanna get hit back, you usually spam it further away from them. Maxing e first gives you way higher dps potential, bcs of longer root duration, that makes huge difference with r combined, so prove me wrong, but this video is a troll.

      Not everything is about kills. If you can keep their adc low, he can't farm and take xp. Or does go for farm and dies more easily. Kills is not everything. Pressure is more important and q also gives you more aoe in team fights.
      I agree that there is also an argument for a longer root. However, your root is your only pressure then, if you miss it, the enemy botlane can engage and you are useless. It's like blitz hook. Low elo players think they need to use blitz hook 10 times and then they will probably hit 1. However you have more pressure if you don't use your hook unless it is almost certain a hit. Meanwhile good players go in hard when big cc spells are on cd.

    In lower Elo ( Iron - Platinum) maxing E is a lot better. When Solo Ranking you can kill squished alone. 2 second root gives your lower /less skilled/experienced allies more time to react to your play. Maybe later on it’s better to have more lane dominant plays. But cc>dmg as supp in low Elo. Always. ( I have about 1,5mill champion xp with zyra).

    Skill path is subjective to the game you're in, which role you're in, which lane opponent(s) you're up against. Restricting adaptability immediately drops this recommendation out of S tier into A tier. This short is purely for continuous poke. All-in potential wants maximum damage from all sources and Liandries doesn't increase damage if you are overwriting the debuff from many sources, so yes Q->W is good, but when you are 1v many and against good players? E is what you are using to save lives on your team, it is what I focus when I need to turn the tide asap. Maxing E on Zyra is her counterplay for being dived continuously in 2v4s or worse. If ur only getting 1-2 Qs out per fight then reduced cdr on it is far less use. W second is still powerful because u can spread out the slows along the path (and then abuse that for the necessary kiting)
