Who Wins
- You lose pre-6 due to Zoe's superior range and your limited gap-closing options, making it difficult to contest her poke.
- Post-6 you gain significant kill pressure with R engage potential, especially if you can land it after Zoe uses her mobility spells.
How to Trade
- Your best trading pattern involves using W movement speed to dodge Zoe's Q, then committing with Q-auto trades when she's on cooldown.
- Post-6, look for R engages when Zoe is positioned aggressively or has used her escape tools.
Wave Control
- Accept early cs deficits and focus on maintaining health for post-6 all-ins rather than forcing unfavorable trades.
- Keep waves in neutral positions to maximize your R engage angles and minimize Zoe's escape routes.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't chase extended trades pre-6 where Zoe can kite you with superior range and mobility.
- Avoid using R predictably when Zoe has flash available, as she can easily escape and leave you overextended without your primary engage tool.
