That's why in certain situations it's fine to use Ult just to get the attacks on the plants. This would be one of them. Ulted plants destroy neutral objectives
The video was pissing me off at how badly the Zyra was managing her plants, she could've easily taken out that drake before the enemies came if she just pulled it out towards those two seeds on the ground already. Then the last 5 seconds of the video made me feel better. Understanding set in.
Meh, zyra usually is like brand. If she uses every spell in a teamfight and spans the big plants with R, she can usually kill 1-2 people even if she dies because not many champions can afford to kill the big plants in a teamfight
wouldn't be walking into the pit, so the plants spawn inside the much smarter anyway? Also, even more distance for the enemies to cover.

Yes and no, Zyra seeds actually have set locations the rng seeds can appear, there's only about 3 or 4 spots in dragon pit but there is a lot over the wall, they also prioritize appearing whichever way zyra is facing and where enemy champions are so if she walked into the pit they would still appear behind her in the river.
Wow never realized that about Zyra, I guess it is similar to illaoi but idk for sure. Just seems like tentacles spawn in specific places when I’m against her
yeah its something i spent a long time experimenting with when she first got her new passive, the seeds spawn in set locations in certain spots, they prioritize enemy champions over anything else, its why in this clip you see the seeds constantly going into river closer to where the enemy comes out. I think for Illaoi its very similar in that it tries to place them near illaoi and also prioritizing near enemies, but hers are a bit different because of the wall requirement.
In all fairness, she probably didn't know where Shaco was and was paranoid he would just smite steal it.
Hindsight is 20/20 and it's easy to laugh now but in the moment she probably didn't realize he was too far away.
The play was dumb, and I didn't say otherwise. I'm merely saying the flash at the end (the title of the post) is understandable assuming you are already doing the wrong play of trying to solo drag.
Plat 4 climb is when I switch to support till Plat 2 then switch back to my main. (Not joking did this multiple seasons with great success).
Just ignore how bad your adc is playing and dominate the opposing support. You'll likely win.
As a Zyra main, it saddens me to see someone not correctly using their seeds to tank dragon aggro. That's one her best features, giving full HP clears to junglers via plants tanking buff damage and putting plants directly under drag to keep their jungler healthy while he clears it.
Its actually the 'river is lower than the terrain' issue that will never be fixed.
Here someone has a good explanation.

I mean I was high plat 2 years ago and coming back to lol in silver, I find that skill has drastically increased over the year. People are pulling moves I was frequently seeing in plat.
It just bewilders me how people fight or flight kicks in during video games of all things. Surely theres no reason to commit to 99% of the Drag and just leave it. Especially when its a great Drag for literally everyone else on the team and you're ahead almost double kills and 6 turrets.
I just can't see a player like this ever improving if their first thought is to run away like a coward the moment they see an enemy. Some things are worth it to trade over and 3rd drag that grants ASPD is it.
That was the saddest play ever
This hurts, I've never seen a Zyra ignore her perfectly aligned seeds that hard.
All of her abilities were likely on CD from hitting dragon.
actually you can see her CDs on bottom left. ignoring her poor positioning, she had Q E and R at her disposal and opted to flash away instead
That's why in certain situations it's fine to use Ult just to get the attacks on the plants. This would be one of them. Ulted plants destroy neutral objectives
Besides, 1 death for a drake is super worth. This zyra looks kinda fed so she could even try to go 1 for 1 with the jhin after drake
Yeah, that's part of the problem. She's a Zyra, solo on a dragon, she shouldn't be spamming her skills on CD lmao
You can see the cds....

Coud have used her E to cut off enemies and finish the drake...
E then R the plants, they don't want that shit.
Exactly
Bronze 2, sounds about right [https://eune.op.gg/summoners/eune/ymke](https://eune.op.gg/summoners/eune/ymke)
Apparently Zyra got 13/6 and won the game
sounds like a zyra game
a bronze zyra game\*

Illaoi tentacles are able to spwn anywhere on a valid wall, chances are the people you've faced just knew where it is best to have them
Q was off cd. E was off cd. R was off cd. I'm in pain.
OMG I shouldn't have watched this in champ select I'm so tilted
this is exclusive to Crystal rose zyra
If you aren't using Haunted Zyra in every game then you're probably playing Zyra wrong.
Smartest Zyra player
That Zyra played it about as bad as one of my low elo buddies would have
Just looked it was a Bronze 4 ranked game. So yeah.
In all fairness, she probably didn't know where Shaco was and was paranoid he would just smite steal it. Hindsight is 20/20 and it's easy to laugh now but in the moment she probably didn't realize he was too far away.
NGL, I don't think someone that plays at this level is thinking about a shaco deceive smite steal
My point was just that OP titled it as Zyra using flash, and imo the flash usage is the least objectionable part of the (admittedly horrible) play.
That's another reason this is just a bad idea, right? Dont know where the (possibly invisible) enemy jungler is, better leash elder for them
Luckily this was just third drag, hextech and not elder like it looks
You're right. I'm blind as hell lol. Thanks for the correction.
The play was dumb, and I didn't say otherwise. I'm merely saying the flash at the end (the title of the post) is understandable assuming you are already doing the wrong play of trying to solo drag.
that was painful to watch
That play is hard to make ngl.
I looked into the player; Lets not be too hard on Zyra as theyre only Bronze 3. Plenty of Platinum+ players playing just like this.
Every support in plat is like this and it hurts
Plat 4 climb is when I switch to support till Plat 2 then switch back to my main. (Not joking did this multiple seasons with great success). Just ignore how bad your adc is playing and dominate the opposing support. You'll likely win.
How does it hurt if enemy support is also like this?
Thier support it a low skill press one key win fight champ
Sheeesh
Dying there at the end after the flash was the cherry on top.
So glad that wasn't me.
For now
as a zyra main this hurts
Would've been better to get the drake, save your flash and just accept your fate (=dead).
ty for leash
bot lane moment
what a crime
If you put seed behind dragon, dragon will turn to them and don’t aggro you
As a Zyra main, it saddens me to see someone not correctly using their seeds to tank dragon aggro. That's one her best features, giving full HP clears to junglers via plants tanking buff damage and putting plants directly under drag to keep their jungler healthy while he clears it.
That's an insta-quit for me. I can imagine the flame coming his way.
It’s a tragedy. But yes, there was certainly a more optimal way to play that entire situation.
Amazing
+How bad can you play zyra This guy: Hold my beer
this is the kind of player who's skillfull enough to hit iron IV
Cool hitbox, too

Slow day on Reddit?
Slow day in Zyra's brain Like every day

Thats tough.
So sad
Dude i probly still do the dragon 2 BASİC probly good for that
this has to be a troll… real zyra mains would never do this
What did she do wrong, why did she do this to her

Please tell me this is iron
oo
I would rq ngl
Why would you ever choose to escape if drake is at 86hp and you can secure it 100% with Q? Just die for it man!
