Abilities
More Sparkles!PC
Passive - More Sparkles!

Innate: After casting an ability, Zoe empowers her next basic attack or Spell Thief bolt within 5 seconds to become projectile and deal 16 / then +4 - 20 (based on level) / then +6 - 30 (based on level) / then +8 - 24 (based on level) / then +10 - 60 (based on level) (+ 20% AP) bonus magic damage.

Paddle Star!PC
Q - Paddle Star!
Cost: 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60 Mana
CD: 8.5 / 8 / 7.5 / 7 / 6.5
Cast Time: 0.25
Range: 800
Effect Radius: 180

Active: Zoe shoots a star in the target direction that explodes upon hitting an enemy, dealing magic damage to nearby enemies hit. The total damage is increased by 0% - 150% (based on level).

Minimum Magic Damage: 2 / then +2 - 16 (based on level) / then +3 - 12 (based on level) / then +4 - 28 (based on level) (+ 50 / 80 / 110 / 140 / 170) (+ 60% AP)
Maximum Magic Damage: 5 / then +5 - 40 (based on level) / then +7.5 - 30 (based on level) / then +10 - 70 (based on level) (+ 125 / 200 / 275 / 350 / 425) (+ 150% AP)

The star lingers at maximum range for 1 second, during which Paddle Star! can be recast after 0.25 seconds in the duration.

Recast: Zoe redirects the star in the target path, empowering it with increased speed and radius, and resetting its damage modifier on cast. The redirected star can travel until it reaches 800-units outbound from Zoe.

Paddle Star!'s recast can be used while affected by cast-inhibiting crowd control.

Spell ThiefPC
W - Spell Thief
Cost: 1 Spell Shard
CD: 0.25
Effect Radius: Global

Passive - Wheeeee: Whenever Zoe casts Spell Thief or a summoner spell, she gains bonus movement speed for a duration, and summons three bolts that orbit her for the next 10 seconds.

Bonus Movement Speed: 30 / 40 / 50 / 60 / 70%
Bonus Movement Speed Duration: 2 / 2.25 / 2.5 / 2.75 / 3 seconds
Magic Damage Per Bolt: 15 / 25 / 35 / 45 / 55 (+ 10% AP)
Total Magic Damage: 45 / 75 / 105 / 135 / 165 (+ 30% AP)

If Zoe is not affected by complete crowd control, she shoots one bolt at a time at the nearest non- sleep enemy in range, prioritizing her attack target, dealing magic damage with each bolt.

Passive: Whenever an enemy champion casts a specific summoner spell or item active, regardless of distance, they drop the corresponding Spell Shard onto the ground that grants sight over a 100-radius area and remains for 40 seconds. Enemy minions have a 10% chance to spawn with a random Spell Shard that drops and remains for 20 seconds if Zoe kills them. Allied champions that kill them will cause the Spell Shard to drop only if Zoe is nearby.

Zoe can collect a Spell Shard by moving directly onto it, holding it for up to 60 seconds. Collecting a new Spell Shard replaces the current one.

Active: Zoe mimics the active effect of the collected Spell Shard.

Sleepy Trouble BubblePC
E - Sleepy Trouble Bubble
Cost: 80 Mana
CD: 18 / 17 / 16 / 15 / 14
Cast Time: 0.25
Range: 850
Effect Radius: 250

Active: Zoe kicks a bubble in the target direction that bursts upon the first enemy hit, otherwise lingering at maximum range while slightly bouncing forward over 1 second, then becoming a trap for 5 seconds that bursts upon contact with an enemy. The bubble can move through terrain only once, but travels the entire distance as bonus range, and will fall short if it would enter terrain again.

Magic Damage: 70 / 110 / 150 / 190 / 230 (+ 45% AP)
Maximum Slow: 10 / 15 / 20 / 25 / 30%
Bonus Damage Cap: 70 / 110 / 150 / 190 / 230 (+ 45% AP)
Maximum Mixed Damage: 140 / 220 / 300 / 380 / 460 (+ 90% AP)

The burst deals magic damage to the target and inflicts them with drowsy for 1.4 seconds, which gradually slows them until they fall sleep for 2.25 seconds. While the target is sleep, they are inflicted with 30% magic resistance reduction.

The next instance of non- persistent damage damage from champions, large monsters or turrets against the sleep target consumes the debuff to deal bonus true damage equal to the post-mitigation damage dealt, capped at Sleepy Trouble Bubble's damage. This bonus damage may also be applied within 1 second of the sleep ending, if the debuff was not consumed.

Sleepy Trouble Bubble refunds a percentage of its cooldown if the bubble hits an enemy champion.

Portal JumpPC
R - Portal Jump
Cost: 40 Mana
CD: 11 / 8 / 5
Cast Time: 0.25
Range: 575

Active: After a 0.15-second delay, Zoe blinks in the target direction and remains there for 0.95 seconds to 1.25 seconds, during which she sets her movement speed to a static 0 and has unobstructed vision. Afterwards, she blinks back to her casting position.

Portal Jump basic attack reset Zoe's basic attack timer. Zoe briefly becomes lockout after casting Portal Jump as well as after blinking back.

  • Target Range: 800
  • Mana Cost: 50/55/60/65/70
  • Cooldown: 7.5/7/6.75/6.5/6.25 seconds

  • Collecting a Spell Shard allows Zoe to activate Spell Thief within the next 60 seconds, and she cannot pick up another Shard until she does.
  • Active: Zoe mimics the active of the collected Spell Shard.
  • Passive - Summoner Specialist: Casting Spell Thief or one of her own summoner spells grants Zoe 10/25/40/55/70% bonus movement speed for 2/2.5/3/3.5/4 seconds as well as summoning three bubbles that orbit her for a short duration.

  • Mana Cost: No cost
  • Cooldown: 0.25 seconds

Sleepy Trouble Bubble (E)

  • Active: Zoe kicks a ball that detonates on the first enemy hit, dealing 60/100/140/180/220 (+ 40% AP) magic damage and making the target Drowsy. After a brief delay, the Drowsy target falls sleep for 2 seconds.
  • Sleeping targets take double damage from the next attack or ability to hit them, up to a cap of Sleepy Trouble Bubble's damage, but are awoken early upon taking damage.
  • The ball's range is doubled when it passes through terrain. If the ball does not hit an enemy, it lingers on the ground as a trap for 4 seconds, which primes after a brief delay.
  • Putting a target to sleep refunds 10/15/20/25/30% of Sleepy Trouble Bubble's cooldown.
  • Target Range: 800
  • Mana Cost: 80
  • Cooldown: 16/15.5/15/14.5/14 seconds
