Kha'Zix vs Zyra

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use fog and isolation to pick off Zyra or her ADC during jungle skirmishes.
Avoid grouped fights where Zyra's plants and root lock down your engage.
Prioritize vision control around river and objectives to create isolated targets for (Q) burst.

Jungle Plan

Path toward camps near lanes that can isolate targets for your burst damage.
Contest first Scuttle only if your lanes can collapse quickly to secure or punish vision.
Prioritize counter-jungling camps that are isolated and avoid river fights where Zyra's root and plants zone effectively.

Danger windows

Early river fights when nearby lanes lack priority, Zyra's root and plants control space.
Forced objective fights without vision where (R) knockup punishes grouped engages.
Low-health clears or isolated camps where Zyra's poke and root can zone or force disengage.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear that leads to early Scuttle if nearby lanes have priority.
Avoid invading early without lane priority since Zyra's root and plants punish isolated fights.
Use (R) stealth to approach river Scuttle or enemy jungle entrances for safe vision denial and picks.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) stealth and evolution, enabling safer picks through fog and isolated burst.
First damage item spike amplifies (Q) damage on isolated targets, increasing invade and counter-jungle threat.
Evolved (E) resets after kills extend skirmishes, letting you chain picks before enemy collapse.

Win conditions

Convert isolated picks into dragon or Rift Herald control using cleared vision and fog.
Use (R) stealth and evolved (E) to snowball kills and deny Zyra's vision around objectives.
Pressure side camps and invade when enemy lanes are overextended or lack root follow-up to scale denial.
