Does Zyra needs a rework? An visual update?

I know this is a very common topic about Zyra and I just wanted to get other perspectives of Zyra players all over the regions. Do you think Zyra needs any update in her kit or visual? If so, how would you change her to make her current and (more importantly) balanced?

I really enjoy Zyra's kit, I feel like she can be very useful and still is pretty relevant, specially based on her zoning power. BUT, I do think she deserves a new passive, since her current one could easily be added to her W's passive.

Based on her gameplay and her lore (specially on that story about a guy who bought a flower bud that later turned into her) I really feel like she should be able to consume a seed near her and teleport to its position. I feel like it would totally fit her "omnipresence" vibe when it comes to "being the forest" and makes up for her poor escape. Considering the game is filled with dashes, with some champions having multiple dashes, I don't see how this would make her OP, tbh.

I feel like her passive could stack range based on plants or seeds spawned during the game, or even leveling up. It could increase her range and lower the cooldown, making it a bit easier to ballance. Having that passive woul totally make her one with "the jungle" and not only make it easier for her to escape, but to ambush someone, which is very on brand for Zyra, right?

That would also make her ganks more impactful, whether she's playing jungle or mid/sup. I also feel this could have many alternatives for the balancing team to polish the passive to make sure it's not op. Maybe she can onlly teleport to passive spawned seeds (or just the active W seeds) or putting a small chanelling time when consuming a seed to teleport to its location.

Honestly, that and less stupid plants would be - for me - just enough to make her relevant, stronger, but still balanced.

And, about her visual, I really understand some criticism, but I really like her being a c*nty hot plant lady. I guess they could make her visual more elegant and polished like they did with LeBlanc, but I wouldn't want to see her as a jungle monster.

What do you guys think?? How would you update her kit if you think she deserves one?
