Introduction
Hi, this is my first guide and here I want to talk about AP Carry

Wait, Zyra mid?

It's not wrong and I don't think people should stop playing




- You can't totally control your plants and sometimes you will KS your carry.
- Most of supports have some mobility or an ability that increases movement speed.
Zyra doesn't.
- Unlike other supports who can poke and bring utility in one single skill, Deadly Bloom has nothing but damage.
- She is just too offensive. Don't waste her damage!
So, Zyra is a damage machine and I will kill everyone?
No,








And now that we know who this deadly lady is, let's see how to play her.
Pros
+ Great poke and strong lane presence. + Queen of CC: Slow, snare and an AoE knockup. + Massive AoE damage. + Her plants and her passive allow you to kill enemies even when you're dead. + Free wards. + ![]() + One of the best farmers in the game. |
Cons
- Squishy. - Poor mobility, slow movement speed. - Needs good positioning and practice to quickly use her skills. - Her plants must be managed to make you survive or improve your damage. - Damage falls at late game, like most mages. - Easily countered by gap closers and high mobility champions. - ![]() |
Greater Mark of Magic Penetration: Essential to increase your damage and counter magic resistance.
Greater Seal of Scaling Mana Regeneration: Will help you to push lanes and spam your skills during team fights.
Greater Glyph of Scaling Ability Power: This build focus on scaling runes because of the potential Zyra has in team fights at early game. With
Rabadon's Deathcap passive, your ability power will be greatly increased at level 18.
Greater Quintessence of Ability Power: Same above.
Alternative: You can choose magic resistance or armor seals instead of mana regeneration.

deadly bloom (Q): Your Q deals AoE magic damage, is your main poke and harass source and should be maxed as soon as you can. If deadly bloom hits one of

With max CDR, the cooldown goes to 3 seconds and you can spam this ability during team fights. The radius is not so large as Lux's

This ability has a good range and will allow you to farm and poke the enemy from a safe distance. Just stay farming with normal attacks and, when the enemy gets in range to poke you, use deadly bloom to punish him. Even if it doesn't damage him, the thorn spitter might hit and will keep him away from your minions.
Remember that the thorn spitter is NOT the same plant of your E. Both your Q and your Q's plant are focused on DAMAGE. However, once you build


How to use this ability:
- Ward bushes, dragon, baron and jungle.
- Combine with deadly bloom to poke and increase your damage.
- Combine with
Grasping Roots to slow an enemy.
