Pretty sure I'd dodge this match-up. Her weakest point is pre-6, after that whenever her R is up you're dead meat if you miss your E, she can 1v1 you with ease with her shroud, immense damage and INSANE mobility, and if she's not the best she has 3 "get out of jail free" cards in her W, E and R.

![]() Hello everyone! My name is Vicksy, I'm a high Diamond/Master tier mid laner. I've been playing since the start of Season 3 on the EUW server, and I've been a full on mid main since Season 4. I have achieved at least Diamond 1 every single season since Season 4, hitting Masters in multiple seasons using champions such as ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() While I don't tend to play League daily anymore, I still like to keep up with my favourite champions by watching other streamers and tierlists to understand where exactly they settle in on metas, and I closely follow item changes. I also still like to guarantee that I get Master at the end of every season. |

Pros
+ Extremely high damage + Great carry potential + Decent, safe waveclear + Huge range on her CC + Great at creating picks + Relevant all game + Free summoner spells and items ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Cons
- Super high skill cap - No raw mobility - Squish squish - Enemies with mobility destroy her - Highly reliant on hitting skill-shots - Damage can be easily blocked - Many counters to Sleepy Trouble Bubble Because of ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

This is a really good summoner for helping you get that extra gold towards your first few items to completely take over the game, and great for roaming to kill bot lane as they will always have a ![]() ![]() |

![]() |
This rune is the best selfish choice to keep yourself safe. It's a whole MINUTE cooldown shorter than ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() |
Take this when the enemy team has very devastating CC that you need to stay safe from, especially from junglers like ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

These are in my opinion the best runes by far for


![]() |
It works so well on ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
This rune is an AMAZING choice for ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Quite a straightforward rune, just offers you extra AP upon killing wards and champions. I've actually also been switching between this and ![]() ![]() |
With ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

With lots of runes being nerfed over this year, we're no longer taking the ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
As explained above, this is my favourite rune to combine with ![]() ![]() |
Bonuses
The bonuses towards your runes are pretty clear cut here, you can opt for 9 adaptive twice for a total of 18 AP and choose between the MR or armour for the final choice, as the HP one isn't very good. If you're in difficult match-ups you can just double dip in the defenses, taking +16 MR or +12 armour, allowing you to get through lane a lot easier.

This is Zoe's 2nd best rune to take. It's very consistent as it always as high base damage throughout the game, so if you're in a counter lane where you won't get many ![]() ![]() ![]() |

This is another rune popular among ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Step 4: Profit! Enjoy!





You can play her one of two ways: either hard shoving your opponent in constantly because you don't want to deal with laning vs. them and look to roam, or you can try to poke them out. After being buffed again,

A standard lane combo you should be using early on is

If you manage to push your laner out or even kill them and you're healthy enough to not base and/or you know where the enemy jungler is, you can do a lot of damage to the enemy mid's tower to get first blood tower gold. Zoe's passive








You pretty much want to be constantly grouping with your team outside of laning phase. Even though







Even though you want to be mostly grouping, there are some situations where you can split push. She's not super good at split-pushing because of how susceptible to being dived on she is, but if you're left alone on a tower,
