I honestly just think you are being lazy signing her off as a one note character. Sure, piltover and zaun might be a common combination, but even than there are so many draw cards in p&z and heimerdinger exists. You could do bildgewater draw, as they have many draw cards as well. You could do mono Targon invoke, as they have many keywords in Targon, and invoke already synergies with her. She isn’t one note, she has lots of potential
Maybe Zoe is not a one note character but Viktor just became one since targon with it's invokes and gems was already really good for Viktor but now they left no doubt what Region is to choose if you want to play the best version of Viktor... Lame i call something like that not more, not less
At first, I thought this card would be pretty bad but after thinking about it for a bit this card could actually discard Trundle's Ice Pillar which could be pretty huge. So at the very least, this card could be an interesting tech card.
Well, that was a tough one. I eventually got frustrated enough to sit down and write a short analysis of what could be done with a 1 Durability Weapon. That finally wielded 2 interesting ideas. I've put the more straight forward one to use but had to do with mediocre art. Maybe I'll try to go with the rational method for the next weeks instead of following my first gut feeling as I usually do.
If someone's interested: I've submitted Cedar Wand. It was tempting to go full Harry Potter crossover and make it a legendary Druid "Lifestick" that restores all friendly characters to full Health via Spellburst, but cards like this are hard to balance and rarely do well.
The second interesting idea was to make a 0/1 Weapon with a strong Deathrattle for a class that has no easy access to weapons. This would have required more time to thoroughly think through which I don't have right now. That's a shame because using Deathrattles would have been a nice idea this week.
Elementals are inconsistent, like all BG mode really, but for elementals specifically you need either domo/rag/nomi and a bunch of elementals to roll the buffs they give, I mean yeah one can argue that that makes any elemental a "buffer" minion which is insane value, but just getting one turn without being able to play a single elemental because someone else is also playing them, yeah, that kills or hinders greatly the build.
You either highroll or end 5~8 if you don't succeed, I mean, played two games today as Chenvala (the most broken elemental hero), and got 1st against a George with poisonous Murlocs, and then 7th against random bs because I just got 2 elementals by turn 5, so... BGs? Just flip a coin in every aspect and there you have the game mode.

As far as cheap Champions go, these cards are typically going to be flexible. Like Teemo or Elise for example. The fact that this card does have Elusive means that it could also make an Elusive archetype going towards Targon with the same idea they did with Teemo and Kinkou Wayfinder. I think it's a bit early to judge her power but I'm more inclined to believe she's a meme more than good.
I am hearing a lot of folks on Twitch saying they will likely pick Valeera at 50 for more rogue variety. I have not given it much thought personally. I am thinking I may just wait until I hit 50 to actually think about it. Frankly, I like a lot of them. I probably won't choose Mage or Shaman because with the paid track there's no shortage of options for skins on those classes.
Now this is ... REALLY lame and not because the zoe archetype is too powerful but because Zoe is sooo obviously meant to be the partner champion for viktor that you don't even have to think about alternatives at this point. Sure it takes like 2 days to find a decent build but afterwards its viktor zoe will be just one of many boring decks that i will certainly not play...
I should reach level 50 by the very end of this weekend, only 16000 XP short of level 50 currently. I wonder how many levels boost we will receive with the Rewards Track update on December 15th. I can probably calculate it myself, but I would like it to be a surprise.
As a sidenote, which hero portrait will you all choose? Demon Hunter would probably be my most logical choice since I only have 88 wins with that class, but some of the others look nicer though.

Ahegao Loli?
Riot sure understands it's fanbase.
I'm so tired of losing against stupidly overpowered elementals...
