Statistical Matchup Analysis

Balanced meta clash: Zyra (3.3%, 21st place out of 53 Support champions) regularly faces Senna (4.4%, 18th place). Both champions hold solid meta positions, making this matchup knowledge a direct path to climbing and improving your win rate. Surprising upset: Despite Zyra's higher tier rating, Senna wins 51.9% of encounters. This suggests Senna's kit specifically counters Zyra's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Electrocute + Cheap Shot combination (67.1% win rate) plus optimal itemization Blackfire Torch, Liandry's Torment, Rylai's Crystal Scepter, and Sorcerer's Shoes boosts your chances from 48.1% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision advantage: Despite losing the direct matchup, Zyra's superior warding (0.96 wards/min, 10th among supports) can swing team fights and objectives in your favor. Damage doesn't equal wins: Zyra outputs more damage (776 vs 533/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Senna: leads in both matchup win rate (51.9%) and KDA (2.70 vs 2.20, 20th vs 42nd place). Zyra players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

How to Beat Senna as Zyra (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Zyra versus Senna matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Zyra deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Senna deals mainly physical damage (92.73%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Key aspects of the Zyra Support versus Senna Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Zyra player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Senna player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach.

Zyra tips:

  • Placing a seed in your spell's path after you have cast it gives you the best chance of having a seed in the proper spot.
  • Seeds grant vision to your team.
  • Zyra is a great ambusher - look for opportunities to set a trap of seeds in brush, then lure enemies in.
