Jax vs Zyra

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize scaling and extended fights as Jax outscales Zyra's poke and zone control.
Use mobility and (E) to dodge Zyra's root and plants in river skirmishes.
Control river vision to limit Zyra's brush setups and reduce her root follow-ups.

Jungle Plan

Path for a fast three-camp clear then contest Scuttle when lanes can assist.
Use (E) to negate Zyra's poke and engage after her root cooldown expires.
Prioritize river control and counter-jungle when Zyra overextends planting seeds in brush.

Danger windows

Avoid river fights when (E) root and (R) ultimate are available.
Be cautious invading when Zyra controls brush with plants for vision and zone.
Low-health clears are vulnerable to Zyra's poke and root setups; reset early if pressured.

Early game

Full clear quickly to reach level 3 before contesting Scuttle Crab.
Avoid early river fights without lane priority due to Zyra's strong poke and root.
Invade only if nearby lanes have priority and (E) root is on cooldown.

Power spikes

Level 6 grants (R) for longer fights; use it to force extended skirmishes.
First dueling item spike increases splitpush and duel threat; pressure side lanes.
Two-item spike solidifies side-lane dominance; force 1v1s and deny Zyra's team impact.

Win conditions

Convert scaling advantage into side-lane pressure, forcing Zyra's team to respond.
Use (Q)(E) combos to punish Zyra after missed roots and clear her jungle camps.
Secure river vision to enable safe objective control and counter-gank opportunities.

Tip: For Jax vs Zyra, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Jungle lane check.
