Guide to Countering Zyra as Taliyah

Tips for Playing as Taliyah against Zyra

Remember, you don't always have to ride Weaver's Wall.

Try to throw enemies into Unraveled Earth using Seismic Shove.

Once you have Rylai's Crystal Scepter, casting Threaded Volley at enemies chasing you is a great way of making them regret everything.

Advice to Win Against Zyra

Moving closer to Zyra can be a smart move if she places plants too far away from herself.

Moving the fight to a different area will deprive Zyra of accumulated seeds.

Plants take fixed damage from attacks and effects, similar to wards. They also expire quickly on their own.

Seeds placed by Zyra's W are larger, a different color, and grant a small amount of vision to her team.

Zyra's seeds can be destroyed by stepping on them. If she tries to grow them as you do, dodge back at the last moment.
