Why it works
- Ashe slows. Her attacks apply Frost Shot, and her W does it in a cone (range 1200).
- Zyra roots. Her E throws vines that damage and root; if cast near a seed, the plant attacks.
- Zyra's R. A thicket that damages as it expands and knocks up as it contracts.
- Ashe's arrow. It stuns according to the distance traveled and slows nearby enemies.
Weak points: Fast engages and assassins; it depends on coordination between both players. To verify
