Introduction & Credentials
Introduction
Hi, my name is ShoDesu AKA J4NNA. I am a challenger support main that plays on the NA server and have been playing Janna for about 2 years now. I play other supports but Janna is easily my most played support. I have been meaning to write this guide for a while now, as many people have asked me to so here it is! If you have any questions that his guide does not cover, feel free to come to my stream and ask them! My twitch is https://twitch.tv/shodesu !

Pros & Cons
Pros
|
+ High CC + Can solo carry + Punishes dive comps + Zone Control + Strong Poke + Lots of Damage |
Zyra is a powerful champion offering exceptional utility and burst damage through her plant-based abilities. As a mage-support hybrid, she excels in zoning enemies with her seeds and punishing missteps with high-damage combos. Her crowd control capabilities, including her Grasping Roots and Stranglethorns, can turn the tide of team fights by locking down multiple opponents. Zyra's ability to control areas of the map and provide consistent poke damage makes her a valuable asset in both the laning phase and late-game team fights. Her versatility and impact make her a strong choice for players who enjoy controlling the battlefield. |
Cons
|
- Bad when behind - Squishy - Needs items - No mobility - Slow Abilities |
Zyra can struggle as a champion due to her fragility and lack of mobility, making her an easy target for assassins and engage-heavy supports. Her reliance on landing skill shots, such as Grasping Roots, means she can be inconsistent if her abilities are dodged or misused. In the late game, poor positioning or the inability to survive burst damage often leaves her unable to contribute meaningfully to team fights. Against highly mobile champions, Zyra's damage can feel underwhelming. |
Abilities

Passive - Garden of Thorns Seeds spawn around Zyra periodically, becoming faster with level. Zyra can cast Deadly Spines or Grasping Roots near seeds to grow plants, who fight for Zyra. |

R - Stranglethorns Zyra summons a twisted thicket at her target location, dealing damage to enemies as it expands and knocking them airborne as it contracts. Plants within the thicket are enraged. |
