Zoe vs Neeko

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Zoe is a poke mage with high early agency and lane pressure aiming to find angles for E and extended Q damage with R.
Deny Neeko's disguise and root angles by controlling minion positioning and punishing missed Neeko E.

Trading pattern

Trade by landing E to set up high-range Q burst, using R to reposition for safer angles.
Punish Neeko's missed E roots aggressively before she can reset her engage.
Respect Neeko R availability; avoid extended trades when her ultimate is up to reduce all-in threat.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Neeko's E is ready and minions are positioned for her root through them.
Respect Neeko R availability as it greatly increases her all-in threat and crowd control.
Zoe is vulnerable after missing E or using R at bad timings; avoid overextending then.

Early game

Use early levels to fish for E and punish Neeko when her E root misses.
Maintain pressure to prevent Neeko from safely using minions to angle her E.
Avoid risky trades if E is on cooldown or after using R poorly.

Power spikes

Zoe's major spikes are level 6 R for extended poke angles and first completed AP burst item.
Respect Neeko's level 6 R for all-in and teamfight threat.
Both champions spike on their first AP item, increasing burst potential.

Win conditions

Win by landing E to enable long-range Q+R burst combos and denying Neeko's root setups.
Punish Neeko's missed E roots and forced cooldowns to maintain lane dominance.
Use superior poke and positioning to prevent Neeko from safely using disguise and all-in windows.

Tip: For Zoe vs Neeko, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
