Laning Phase
With this Zoe Build usually try to focus on taking short trades while making use of More Sparkles! with each ability cast. Always be on the lookout for an opportunity to hit the opposing laner with Sleepy Trouble Bubble in order to blast them with a Paddle Star! followed by a More Sparkles! empowered auto-attack. This combo deals a ton of damage, is doable as early as level 2, and gives a huge advantage in lane if you manage to pull it off.
You’ll need always communicate with your team, and aid in setting up your ganks with crowd control via Sleepy Trouble Bubble. The sleep duration is usually long enough for your team member to get into position and pull off a successful gank if your opponent doesn’t burn a summoner spell to avoid it.
Team Fights
Team fighting as Zoe is one of the hardest things to do and is what separates the good Zoe players from the greats. Your abilities are on a relatively short cooldown, but not short enough for multiple rotations of each within most fights. You need to make strong use of each ability once a fight erupts to be more of a help than a hindrance to your team.
Position yourself accordingly and try to catch a high priority target off guard with either a huge burst of damage from Paddle Star!, or a Sleepy Trouble Bubble. Zoe is quite unique in this, and the optimal positioning is something that you learn through trial and error.
Zoe Abilities
At the beginning of a match start to skill the ability Paddle Star! on Zoe. As the match progresses, it is best to maximise Paddle Star! into Sleepy Trouble Bubble and at last Spell Thief. Paddle Star! is a very strong ability of Zoe in order to build up a lead and dominate your opponents. The passive is called More Sparkles! and there is no need to set it manually on a Zoe Build.
Zoe's next basic attack after casting a spell deals bonus magic damage.
Biography
Read Zoe's bioAs 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.
