Garden of Thorns (Innate)
- New Passive: Zyra spawns seeds nearby every 11/10/X/X seconds, occasionally spawning two at once. Seeds spawned by Garden of Thorns do not grant vision. There doesn't appear to be a metric to determine this. Seeds prefer spawning in brush and cannot spawn too close together, and the timer on her next seed wait if Zyra is concealed within a brush and there is no room for additional seeds. Zyra can only have 8 seeds planted at a time, which last for 45 seconds. Casting Deadly Spines or Grasping Roots causes nearby seeds to bloom plants, which last for a short duration and deal magic damage per attack. Plants beyond the first attacking a single target deal only 50% damage.
- Plant health reduced to 4 from 6.
- Plants now take 0.5 damage from on-hit effects per on-hit effect (e.g. Blade of the Ruined King and Toxic Shot) and applied damage over times (e.g. Noxious Blast and Blaze).

General
- Plant priority updated: (changes in bold)
- Against champions, Zyra's basic attacks apply a high-priority mark for 3 seconds and her plants apply a lesser-priority mark on their target for 3 seconds.
- # Sources of taunt, even if they are out of range.
- # High-priority marks, prioritizing the most recently applied.
- # Lesser-priority marks, prioritizing those nearest to the plant.
- # Champions within 350 units of the plant (prioritizing nearest).
- # Non-champions Zyra has recently attacked (prioritizing most recent).
- # Any unit in range (prioritizing closest).
- Fixed a bug where plants would sometimes remain aggroed on targets they cannot see, preventing them for attacking.
- Fixed a bug where a plants second attack would sometimes take a long time to begin.
- Plants will now rotate to face their next target faster.

- Upon dying, Zyra transforms into a vengeful plant that fires one last shot before expiring.

- Zyra grows a bud at target location. After a brief delay it explodes, launching damaging thorns at all nearby enemies. If cast on a seed, Deadly Bloom grows a Thorn Spitter plant, which fires at enemies from afar.
Rampant Growth (W)
- Zyra gains bonus cooldown reduction. Zyra can plant a seed, granting vision of an area for up to 30 seconds and revealing enemy champions that step on it. Other spells cast on seeds will turn them into plants who fight for Zyra.
Grasping Roots (E)
- Zyra sends forth vines through the ground to ensnare her target, dealing damage and rooting enemies they come across. If cast on a seed, Grasping Roots grows a Vine Lasher, whose short range attacks reduce enemy movement speed.
