Learn how to Zeri counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Engage or look for trades when her E (Spark Surge) is on cooldown — this is her only mobility spell with a long cooldown (22-18 seconds), making her vulnerable to all-ins when it's unavailable.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Stay within or near your minion wave during lane phase — both her W and Q are blocked by minions, significantly reducing her ability to harass you.
Basic Lane Phase
When Zeri activates her R (Lightning Crash), spread apart from your teammates — her Q chains between nearby targets during her ultimate, dealing damage to multiple champions if they're clustered.
Team Fight
Place Control Wards on likely flank paths during mid-game — Zeri can use her E to dash over walls and surprise engage on your team from unexpected angles.
Skirmish Team Fight
Be cautious when Zeri reaches level 6 and gains access to her ultimate. She becomes significantly stronger and can surprise you with her burst damage and mobility.
Basic Lane Phase
Pull Zeri away from walls and terrain when possible — her W transforms into a powerful laser when it hits terrain, and her E dash distance increases when going over terrain.
Skirmish Team Fight
Avoid pursuing Zeri into the jungle or river without vision — she excels at escaping over walls with her E and will likely wait for it to come off cooldown before engaging.
Skirmish
Look for team fights when Zeri isn't nearby — her ultimate provides significant team fight impact, so engaging when she's elsewhere gives your team an advantage.
