Who Wins
- You lose levels 1-3 to Zoe's superior range and Q poke damage, but you become the dominant force at level 6.
- Your R combined with Q-W-E gives you reliable kill pressure that she cannot match in direct combat.
How to Trade
- Your trading pattern revolves around dodging her key abilities with E, then committing fully with Q-W combo.
- Wait for her to waste Q or E, then immediately engage - half-measures will result in you taking free poke damage while retreating.
Wave Control
- Allow Zoe to push early levels while farming safely, then look for all-ins once you hit power spikes.
- You want shorter trades pre-6 and extended fights post-6 where your sustained damage and mobility advantages shine through.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never waste E defensively for minor poke damage as it's your primary engage and disengage tool.
- Using E to dodge a single Q leaves you vulnerable to her follow-up damage and removes your ability to threaten her for the next 16+ seconds.
