Zoe Build
the Aspect of Twilight
As the embodiment of mischief, imagination, and change, Zoe acts as the cosmic messenger of Targon, heralding major events that reshape worlds. Her mere presence warps the arcane mathematics governing realities, sometimes causing cataclysms without conscious effort or malice. This perhaps explains the breezy nonchalance with which Zoe approaches her duties, giving her plenty of time to focus on playing games, tricking mortals, or otherwise amusing herself. An encounter with Zoe can be joyous and life affirming, but it is always more than it appears and often extremely dangerous.
The most played Zoe Mid build on patch 26.21 runs Electrocute with Sudden Impact, Grisly Mementos and Relentless Hunter, plus Nimbus Cloak and Transcendence from the secondary tree. Take Flash and Ignite. Start with Doran's Ring and Health Potion, then build Luden's Echo, Spellslinger's Shoes and Lich Bane, followed by Shadowflame, Zhonya's Hourglass and Rabadon's Deathcap. Max Q (Paddle Star!) first, then E (Sleepy Trouble Bubble), then W (Spell Thief). It has a 48.6% win rate and a 2.5% pick rate.
