Zoe Wild Rift Build & Guide

For this Zoe Wild Rift guide, we suggest using either Electrocute or Aery on Zoe. Electrocute is the best rune for her if you’re gunning for a burst mage champion who is capable of killing a target in an instant. Aery on the other hand is an excellent choice as aery applies adaptive damage, after using your basic attack or abilities on your opponent.

In our Zoe Wild Rift Guide, here are Zoe’s best champion spells that you can equip on her.

Zoe is a mage champion who has great mobility, thanks to her ultimate. This allows her to fully maximize Paddle Star’s potential, and she can even use it to dodge hostile abilities. Apart from it, she has Spell Thief and has the ability to obtain Protobelt enchant and flash. However, this does not mean that she no longer needs the help of Flash. Just like any other champion, it is advisable to equip flash on Zoe that she may use to escape from risky situations or to make some insane plays with her kit.

For the second slot, we recommend Ignite. As we know, Zoe is a burst mage champion who has the ability to kill an enemy with only a few hits, if not, with one shot using her abilities. She specifically excels at doing that. So to help her in assassinating her targets, she can end her combos with Ignite as a finisher. Ignite also applies grievous wounds which then, reduces the incoming they can get.

In this Zoe Wild Rift guide, we recommend this particular order to maximize her damage output throughout the game. First thing to max is Zoe’s Paddle Star as it is the highlight and her main source of her kit. Next, upgrade her third ability, Sleepy Trouble Bubble to lower its cooldown, allowing you to use it more often especially in the mid to late game. Last skill to upgrade and max should be the Spell Thief.

Also, take note that Zoe’s ultimate should be prioritized and upgraded when it’s available during level 5, 9 and 13. 

Zoes is one of the best champions to play if you like annoying your opponents. During the early laning phase, try to poke your opponents by throwing your abilities and making sure that it’s going to hit. Refrain from using your third ability, or the bubble carelessly, as putting this skill on cooldown leaves you vulnerable.

During this time, continue to play safe and opt for an all-in if they’re low enough or if you have your jungler by your side.

Post-level 5, try to visit other lanes and help them outnumber the opponents for your team to gain advantage.

The best thing you can do in the early game is to stick with your team, and be prepared for teamfights. Ideally, you should target squishy champions such as the carry. With your third skill, Sleepy Trouble Bubble, you can also try to pick someone off. But take note that you should still be careful and be mindful of your positioning as Zoe can be easily eliminated due to her being a squishy champion as well.

For our Zoe Wild Rift Guide, we highly recommend using her with the following champions as they synergize well with her.

Champions who have great range and are capable of attacking from a long distance are what we’re looking for this time, and those are the marksmen. Zoe’s Sleepy Trouble Bubble can be tossed from afar, and she can easily follow up with her ultimate. With that, it would be great if Zoe can get a little help with that. Having that said, marksmen like Jhin can help her. After hitting her bubble, Jhin can immediately deal damage to the target due to his range. On top of it, he can apply another crowd control using his second ability, Deadly Flourish.

Aside from champions with high range, beefy tanks and juggernauts synergize well with Zoe. This allows her to have a space safe in the backline as she deals burst damage to her opponents. One of these tanks is Malphite. With the right items, Malphite can become tanky enough to survive the damage coming from the opponents. Aside from it, Malphite can use his ultimate to setup for teamfights with his crowd control, allowing Zoe to freely throw her abilities at them.
