Do you mix the carry and utility builds at all? Also I think I just disagree with the decision to have rabadons as one of your default damage options over shadowflame.

Tend not to mix the builds because that would reduce the effectiveness of the builds. If I were to choose a last item, deathcap would be the last item, as it would grant the most damage.

However, Shadowflame if bought as 2nd or 3rd item, I wouldn't be against it at all because of the flat penetration. But if the enemy team buys any magic resist, this will feel a bit less good, because the overall DoT damage from Liandries and Blackfire will do more. I can add that part into the guide

I would've still assumed shadowflame would do more damage but ig by the time you're thinking about getting it you have minimum 2 ap items in blackfire/liandry. I'm used to jungle where you don't go blackfire but go shadowflame second into cryptbloom which is just op.

When you say you don't mix it do you still go zhonya's last in some carry games or nah?

I just wouldn't mix the carry items with any of the defense utility. Carry items would mean, you are a pure glass cannon and being the only ap threat on your team, putting any gold for any defense/utility would not be as efficient. If you go glass cannon, and there's another AP threat on your team, then your opponent's MR becomes higher and higher value. However, if you are defense/utility, then you can mix and match all kinds of stuff. Even a Serpents Fang looks ok if there's enough shielding on the enemy team. But that tends to be an exaggerated example

Hi! I have just two questions.
1) Why making a more "tanky" Zyra? Isn't she less performing?
2) Why giving her the treasure hunter rune instead of others?
Thank you for helping me with those questions and even for just reading this. :3

1 - Its more so that you can have an adaptive build. There will be times against certain champions/team compositions where it will be very difficult to survive. So at least building tanky, will provide utility to your team and perhaps even bait enemies into jumping you. These situations will more likely come up if you are very early/first pick in the draft and you get countered by the enemy.

2. In Solo Q, there will be a lot of fighting and kills in any elo you're in. So just getting to your items sooner is much more beneficial. As for the other "hunter" runes, the only other valuable one is Relentless Hunter, to get around on the map faster. For Ultimate Hunter, while Zyra has a good ultimate, she is not really reliant on it to do what she needs to do.

And no problem! If you have any other questions, let me know!. Glad to help. Have a good day
