This is a Zyra build requested by my friend. I hope you enjoy, also please TRY the builds before you complain. Thanks guys!

I am 13 and I love to play APC champions.

Zyra is one of my favorite champions and I find her very fun.

When I first played her I fell in love with her and her kit.

I love she uses her plants to her benefit in gold and killing.

Zyra is so great for twisted treeline. She is the funnest APC I've played. Her combo is great and she bursts like crazy.


Her plants are really fun to use

I love her kit

I love her voice :D

She is one of the best APC's I've played

Pros:
Low CDs
Plants do lots of damage
Amazing burst
Great passive

Cons:
Squishy
No escapes
Underfed, usually GG

Lore: Longing to take control of her fate, the ancient, dying plant Zyra transferred her consciousness into a human body for a second chance at life. Centuries ago, she and her kind dominated the ***ungu Jungle, using thorns and vines to consume any animal that set foot in their territory. As the years passed, the animal population steadily died off. Food became increasingly scarce, and Zyra could only stand by helplessly as the last of her kin withered away. She thought she would perish alone, until the appearance of an unwary sorceress presented her with an opportunity for salvation.

It was the first time in years Zyra had sensed a creature wander so close. Hunger drew her to the sorceress, but some other, deeper instinct compelled her. She enveloped the woman in thorns with ease, but as she savored this final meal, foreign memories invaded her thoughts. She saw great jungles of metal and stone where humans and animals thrived. Potent magic surged through her vines, and she devised an elegant but risky plan to survive. Using the woman's memories, Zyra poured her newfound magic into the creation of a human-shaped vessel. She didn't know what sort of world awaited her, but she had nothing left to lose. When Zyra opened her eyes, she was overwhelmed by the raw power ready at her fingertips. It wasn't until she noticed the shriveled remains of the plant she once was that she realized how vulnerable she had become. If this body died, there would be no network of vines to retreat through, no roots to regrow her...but she felt truly alive. She beheld the world for the first time as animals did, and a dark smile crept across her lips. She was reborn, and there was so much now within her grasp.

''Closer to the flower, closer to the thorns.''

Zyra'smain combo is Grasping Roots --> Rampant Growth if you see the roots about to land --> Rampant Growth --> Deadly Bloom
The root and slow prevents the enemy champion from escaping the Thorn Spitter and prevents much retaliation.
Placing a seed in your spell's path after you have cast it gives you the best chance of having a seed in the proper spot.
Zyra is a great ambusher. Look for opportunities to set a trap of seeds in brush, then lure enemies in.

Placing and activating seeds behind a wall is not only a good surprise tactic, but adds a layer of

protection to the plants, especially from melee enemies. Plants will be able to fire at enemies

close to the wall without fear of retribution. Example: Top lane of Twisted Treeline, place seeds

through the wall separating the lane from Vilemaw's Lair. When your lane opponent gets too close

to the wall as they farm, activate the seeds.

Seeds enter a brief grace period after being planted in which they cannot be stomped out.

Aggressive players may take advantage of this by placing seeds directly under enemies and then

activating them with Grasping Roots, ensuring the targets will be slowed by the ensuing Vine Lasher.

Plants make great tanks. When in pursuit of jungle buffs, activate seeds between Zyra and the

targets, allowing Zyra's plants to become the focus target of creeps when they begin attacking.

Zyra can prepare to defend towers from pushes by pre-planting seeds before the minions arrive

at the tower, to allow for up to 4 plants to clear the minion wave quickly.

Zyra is a great initiator like Morgana landing a long range Grasping Roots or placing a good Stranglethorns to knock up multiple enemies can lead to a game winning team-fight
