[quote=Joxuu]The passive is OP +300 true damage at level 10 O.o I will deffinately buy her and show [[Heimerdinger]] & [[Yorick]] the true use of slaves.[/quote]

[quote=Wayne3100]Wow, kit looks very interesting. Not easy to master (I think), but interesting for sure. Definitely buying her.[/quote]

[quote=Embracing]She feels like an AOE Heimerdinger-ish champ[/quote]

[quote=Blood26][embed=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oojunFiufJo&feature=youtu.be] To those who have yet to the preview of her skills live, here's the video. I can see why Morello referred her to the likes of [[Orianna]] and [[Anivia]]. As he mentioned, "More than Anivia, but less than Orianna". Her Q reminds me of Orianna's [[Command: Dissonance]] without the slow effect, E reminds me of Anivia's [[Flash Frost]] albeit a speedier version of it, and a snare instead of a stun. Her ulti is actually combination of [[Glacial Storm]] and [[Command: Shockwave]], having the AoE range of Anivia's ult and the effect of Orianna's ult. In this case, its knock up. So far, I think she's probably the hardest champion till date to master. Which might earn her a place with Orianna and Anivia as LoL's top 5 hardest champions to utilize when she gets released. After seeing her preview of skills, I agree with others on how she is not going to be a top pick. She's just your standard AP mage with a unique theme that no other champion has thus far - Nature. Other than that, she's got the same weakness as the rest of the AP champs I reckon, mobility will beat her flat out. She'll probably have to sit at the back and dish out plants to smack enemies. I originally thought she was gonna outshine [[Ahri]] in some way, since Morello spoke so highly of her. Now, I am just disappointed. But Nature themed champion is the first I've seen in Lol, hence, I am still somewhat excited. I will get her, but I can foresee Zyra becoming the second Anivia or Orianna very soon. Oh well, at lesat we still have one more female champ to wait. Some Lunar-themed champion by the name of Diane. Who knows, she might appeal to us.[/quote]

[/quote] Maokai is an AP tank with little related nature skills :3. Yes, I know he's a tree. But he doesn't sprout seeds~ And he certainly didn't get all users hyped up about him.[/quote]

[quote=animorte]He is a tree with a root and saplings. I could mention Malphite as well since he is a rock that rolls a rock. I'm referring to the earth element which is nature enough for me.[/quote]

[quote=Blood26][quote=animorte] He is a tree with a root and saplings. I could mention Malphite as well since he is a rock that rolls a rock. I'm referring to the earth element which is nature enough for me. [/quote] The only thing causes me to remember about [[Maokai]]'s probably his [[Vengeful Maelstrom]]. Whenever I see Maokai, that's what I usually think off. I forget about [[Sapling Toss]] all the time. All because its just a skill that doesn't appeal to me. So no, the treant isn't a full-fledged champion with nature-related skills imo. Yes, [[Malphite]] is related to earth/rock, which is related to nature. It's arguable. I never saw it that way. To me, when I think about nature in games, I think about plant-related stuffs. Like some massive overgrowth of plants. Not the tiny ones. Rock is just rock. But touche, you have a point.[/quote]

[quote=A Chubby Baby]love this plant and seed mechanism :D.[/quote]

[quote=animorte]So far I think I like Zyra better than both of them anyway. :P Aside from Maokai's godly pre-6 ganks.[/quote]
