Zyra Build
Rise of the Thorns
Born in an ancient, sorcerous catastrophe, Zyra is the wrath of nature given form—an alluring hybrid of plant and human, kindling new life with every step. She views the many mortals of Valoran as little more than prey for her seeded progeny, and thinks nothing of slaying them with flurries of deadly spines. Though her true purpose has not been revealed, Zyra wanders the world, indulging her most primal urges to colonize, and strangle all other life from it.
The most played Zyra Support build on patch 26.21 runs Arcane Comet with Manaflow Band, Transcendence and Scorch, plus Relentless Hunter and Taste of Blood from the secondary tree. Take Flash and Ignite. Start with Health Potion, then build Zaz'Zak's Realmspike, Liandry's Torment and Sorcerer's Shoes, followed by Rylai's Crystal Scepter, Morellonomicon and Zhonya's Hourglass. Max E (Grasping Roots) first, then Q (Deadly Spines), then W (Rampant Growth). It has a 51.2% win rate and a 3.5% pick rate.
