A spell-casting Bot course needs mana and repeated trick contact rather than a marksman attack-speed chart. Heal supports th' shared course.

HealAvoid duplicating th' same defensive spell without a reason. Barrier protects th' user; Heal can protect both nigh th' ship course partners.
Pick Cleanse only when removable crowd control be th' course or fight problem and ye can use it reliably.
Arrr, matchup notes
Track th' cooldown and range o' th' trick that starts their safest trade. Do nay treat this chart as a statistical counter claim.
Treat Vex as one part o' th' sea chart state. Their Jungler, nigh th' ship waves and which teammates can move determine whether th' same trade or rotation be seaworthy.
Arrr, static alternatives
These choices be nay picked from live scores. Use one only after ye identify th' stated clash problem yourself.
Arrr, Oblivion Orb supplies healing reduction without committing to a completed Morellonomicon. Skip both when healing is not the problem or an ally already covers your target reliably. Healing reduction does not reduce shields.
Arrr, Conditional component, not a core item. Complete Morellonomicon only when its stats and slot efficiency justify delaying another purchase.Trick reference

Seeds spawn around Zyra periodically, becoming faster with level. Zyra can cast Deadly Spines or Grasping Roots near seeds to grow plants, who fight for Zyra.
Thick vines spread through the ground and explode into spines, dealing magic damage to enemies within the area. If cast near a seed, Deadly Spines grows a Thorn Spitter plant, which fires at enemies from afar.
Wait fer reload (s) 7/6.5/6/5.5/5 · Cost 55 · Charted reach (units) 800Zyra plants a seed, lasting up to 60 seconds. Deadly Spines and Grasping Roots cast near seeds will turn them into plants who fight for Zyra. Zyra can store multiple seeds at once, and killing enemies reduces Rampant Growth's recharge time.
Charted reach (units) 850Zyra sends forth vines through the ground to ensnare her target, dealing damage and rooting enemies they come across. If cast near a seed, Grasping Roots grows a Vine Lasher, whose short range attacks reduce enemy Move Speed.

Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.
Pressure farm wit' yer Support while keeping th' wave and river warded; two foes can still punish an isolated carry.
Move after th' wave be secured and attack th' prize from a position yer crew can defend.
Deal damage to th' closest seaworthy target and preserve th' shutdown. Th' lead matters only while ye remain alive.
Clash th' opposing carry's income and trade when both course partners can participate.
Finish th' wave afore rotating unless th' fight be immediate and clearly reachable.
Stand astern o' allied control and loadout damage on reachable targets afore stepping toward th' back aboard line.
Farm nigh tower or wit' nigh th' ship crewmates. Give up isolated minions instead o' offering another kill.
Avoid being first aboard into river and trade an unsafe prize fer income when th' crew cannae contest.
Wait fer foe cooldowns and attack whoever enters yer seaworthy range; survival creates more booty damage than a desperate flank.
Pings, movement and prizes
Protect income and coordinate wit' Support. Yer movement should follow th' wave, while yer pings make target choice and peril clear th' deck afore th' fight begins.
Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.
Finish seaworthy farm and communicate th' recall or move afore th' prize setup begins.
Walk wit' Support or another ally and choose th' side where foe engage cannae reach ye first aboard.
Keep an exit course and identify th' nearest target ye can damage without crossing foe control.
Continue useful damage without chasing astern from th' prize or donating a shutdown.
Later prizes: Repeat th' same process 'round later major prizes: handle nigh th' ship income, communicate th' course, enter through vision and agree on th' fight afore committing.
Arrr, keep preparing
Th' matchup chart be a pre-battle reference. It does nay predict th' result or alter its recommendation from changing live clash data.
