Guide to Synergizing Zyra and Leona

Tips for Playing as Zyra with Leona

Seeds grant vision to your team.

Placing a seed in your spell's path after you have cast it gives you the best chance of having a seed in the proper spot.

Overall, Zyra sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Leona. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Leona.

Is Zyra better when played alongside Leona?

There is no one best synergy for Zyra that will 100% of the time be her best teammate. However, Leona is a good ally for Zyra. By being on the same team as Zyra, she improves their win rate by 2.2% to 54.8%. This clearly indicates that there is a potentially meaningful bond between Zyra and Leona that allows them to perform stronger together than without each other.

Leona has a much lower diffuclty than Zyra. That means Zyra players don't need to be very careful when finding Leona allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a much lower level of skill to do well with you.

Working cooperatively, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to provide utility and CC for your side. Together, these champions should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

Although, by pairing Zyra and Leona together, you may not be providing your other allies very much AD. Make sure to include other champions on your team that nullifies this relative disparity in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Leona ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
