I've been Diamond for a few seasons. My account is "Cocho" on NA. The account in the picture below isn't mine, but he builds Zoe like I do, so I chose him and he is obviously a very good Zoe player. The build and runes is what we both usually take.

You can either get W or E level 2. If you get ganked early, the W will help you out. You might also get lucky and get a good item drop from the wave quickly. The challenger Zoe and I usually get W second.

First back you want to try to get that Lost Chapter, but Dark Seal or Doran's Ring is good too.

---

Other than that you're pretty much set with this build. The main difference between the Korean Zoe build and the NA build is Corrupting Pot with the rune choices. Horizon Focus is a new item that I really like, and its obvious why it works so well with Zoe.

Zoe is best against a team of Squish-y champs who can't tank her skillshots for each other. So magic pen in this build is really important for that reason. I wouldn't change my boot choice unless you absolutely had to.

For the same reason, Banshee's Veil and Zhonya's Hourglass aren't too important unless you have to build them. Late game is often not too good for Zoe, so you really want to hit the power spikes and get a big lead going.

Corrupting Potion:

Start this because you take Time Warp Tonic

---

Luden's Tempest:

Rush this and only this. You can get s Sorcerer's Shoes with Lost Chapter before this if you need damage to roam. Seeker's Armguard works too if you're against an ad laner.

---

Sorcerer's Shoes:

Like I said, I would try to build this as my default boots. Don't build others unless you have no other choice.

---

Horizon Focus

People generally build this item or Lich Bane 2nd after Luden's Tempset. I prefer Horizon Focus, Lich bane is more snowbally though imo.

---

Void staff

After Luden's Tempest if they do make mr.

Rabadon's Deathcap:

After a magic pen item

---

Defensive Items:

Preferably I don't want to make either, but there are often games where you need one of them.

---

Oblivion Orb:

You can build this if you really need to, but dont finish it. Zoe cant really apply it well.
