Zoe DTCL season 8: Team formation, equipment, build

Zoe DTCL season 8 no longer steals magic like Zoe in season 7 but will switch to being a Super Cheating Hacker Dong Than. With 2 sub-races in her body, Zoe can flexibly join many squads.

If you pick Prodigy, Zoe will be the main force in the mid-game until she finds Nunu in the late game. On the Hacker team, she will have to compete with Zed and Leblanc, and on the Trickster team, it will be Jinx.

Like other champions in DTCL season 8, if you want to maximize damage or resistance, you need items. Even if Zoe is 3 stars, she still needs items. Scroll down to see what she needs.

At the start of the match, Hackers will summon a “H4ckerr!m” (Hecarim) to send a champion straight into the enemy backline. That champion cannot be targeted for the first few seconds of the match. All Hackers gain full lifesteal.

  • 3 Hackers: 40% total lifesteal.
  • 4 Hackers: 70% chance to drain all life.

In each round, Prodigy champions will create an item that can be equipped to any champion. These items have stronger stats than normal items but will break after one use. Prodigy champions will not create new weapons to replace the weapons left on the bench. The number of weapons created increases with the Prodigy champion level on the floor.

  • 3 Prodigy: Create a weapon every round
  • 5 Prodigy: Create 2 weapons per round

The first time they drop below half Health, the Super Duper swaps out with a target dummy and restores a large amount of Health.

  • 2 Trickster: When a Trickster falls below 50% health, a scarecrow spawns at the Trickster's current location. The Trickster then dashes to a safe location and heals for 500 health.
  • 3 Super Trick: Additionally, when an enemy kills a scarecrow, they will be stunned for 1.5 seconds.

Zoe launches a bubble at the nearest uninfected enemy, infecting all enemies hit with a virus, dealing 10/10/20% magic damage over 10 seconds. Infected enemies take an additional 400/600/1100 damage.

Zoe is quite flexible when it comes to dealing AoE damage, Hacker helps the main force rush into the backline of the game. Trickster is in the middle of the game and can also stun. Prodigy is considered a mid-game carry until the end of the game if there are not many Nunus. So Zoe is absolutely the right card if you decide to choose Prodigy or add Trickster or Hacker to other teams.

As a magic damage dealer, Zoe will need to collect a lot of Oversized Rod > Tears > BF Sword > Sparring Gloves. Equipment such as Shiv, Sorcerer's Cap, Archangel's Staff, Hand of Justice, Evil Tome, Giant Slayer will increase damage effectively. Spear of Shojin, Blue Charm, Hextech Gunblade will support recovery and shorten the casting time.

Mascot

Although not very related, this is a pretty effective formation, with only 3 Prodigies combined with 4 Spirits and Commoners, Zoe already has a full offensive and defensive team. You can use Sivir right from the start and roll to 3 stars, this will be a very effective carry even at the end.

Until you find Zoe, put her in your team and roll both Sivir and Zoe to 3 stars. Nunu and Janna will be the last two champions you should have at the end of the game. If you don't have either of these two champions, you can keep Poppy to get the 3 Prodigy milestone.

The Super Con Man

To get to 5 Prodigies, you must find Nunu or be lucky enough to activate the system from the beginning thanks to the technology upgrade. The damage source in this team will depend on Leblanc, Jinx and Zoe.

Ekko along with other champions will be the main tank in the tank line. Before finding Nunu you can leave Lulu out and just keep 3 Prodigies. You can replace Lulu's position with a tank or damage champion depending on what you need.

Super Duper Combination

Only the Swindler is a complete clan in this team, all other clans are combinations of many generals together. Choose to upgrade damage-increasing technology corresponding to the clans activated in the team.

Zoe and Jinx can roll up to 3, and if they don't go anywhere, they can switch to Taliyah in the late game. Janna is still the buff for the entire team except Vi. However, the team is still okay because it is quite flexible and doesn't focus too much on any one class.

Hacker

Similar to the Super Trick team above but will have Zed, Leblanc as damage dealers next to Zoe. The remaining tanks are not much different from the Super Trick Zoe team above.

Overall, if you just focus on Zoe, she's pretty versatile and doesn't need to focus on any major class buff milestones. Just make sure you have enough items and roll for Zoe and you can get a quality carry, then use whatever champions you have to get a tank.
