Depends. If you managed to suffocate all the root-hairs or if fungus took hold, well, that would make it compost time for Mr. Ivy.
Also, you don't want to over-pot because if the roots don't fill the pot, you end up with the same problem: too much damp soil around too few roots, which causes rot.

Hold the spores of your Equisetaceae....
Plant updates will be coming.
Particularly if I, as seems possible, become the first human being to take care of plants so poorly that I kill an ivy plant.
Really.
How is that possible?
Too much water
I suspect that is the problem.. or, I suspected.. so I re-potted it in a larger pot with better drainage.
How long would the symptoms of drowning last?
