How to beat Zeri

Common role: ADC

An electric sprinter who machine-guns while outrunning your whole team.

What makes Zeri dangerous

Zeri's autos are skillshot bursts, her Q sprays through fights, she dashes over WALLS with E (empowering shots), gains stacking move speed from her passive and shields, and her ultimate overcharges her — chain lightning and escalating speed with every hit. Uncatchable when ahead.

How to play against Zeri

• 1Hard CC is the only answer — slows barely dent the sprint.
• 2Catch her E wall-dash on cooldown and she's suddenly mortal.
• 3Don't chase the overcharged ult — disengage its 5-second window.
• 4Shut her early: weak laning before items and stacks.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Weak early game and low burst.
• ✓Needs ramp-up time in every fight.
• ✓Hard CC deletes her mid-ramp.
• ✓E cooldown is her only wall trick — count it.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Zeri's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  Batería cargada

  Los ataques de Zeri infligen daño mágico y cuentan como habilidades. Al moverse y utilizar Fuego explosivo, Zeri acumula energía en su Batería portátil. Con el máximo de carga, su próximo ataque inflige daño adicional.

  Strong: shields grant her move speed — she surfs your peel. Weak: baked-in tempo, not a button — just mind the surges.

• Q
  Fuego explosivo

  Fuego explosivo dispara 7 veces, lo que inflige daño de ataque al primer enemigo golpeado. Esta habilidad cuenta como un ataque.

  Strong: her 'autos' are burst skillshots that pierce minions. Weak: they're dodgeable — lateral strafing cuts her DPS in half.

• W
  Ultradescarga láser

  Zeri dispara un pulso eléctrico que ralentiza e inflige daño al primer enemigo golpeado. Si el pulso impacta contra un muro, se expande hasta convertirse en un láser de largo alcance.

  Strong: a long laser through walls when it clips terrain. Weak: narrow and slow — respect only the wall-clip angles.

• E
  Subida de tensión

  Zeri se desliza una corta distancia y potencia Fuego explosivo para atravesar a los enemigos. Salta y pasa por encima de cualquier obstáculo del terreno que toca.

  Strong: dashes over WALLS and empowers her next shots. Weak: a real cooldown — she's mortal for the next ten seconds.

• R
  Choque de rayos

  Zeri libera una nova de electricidad y se sobrecarga, lo que aumenta el daño y acumula velocidad de movimiento que se reinicia y aumenta cada vez que golpea a un campeón enemigo. Mientras esté sobrecargada, Fuego explosivo se convierte en un disparo triple más rápido del que surgen rayos que rebotan entre los enemigos.

  Strong: overcharge — chain lightning and stacking speed per hit. Weak: the ramp needs uninterrupted hits — hard CC mid-ult deletes her.

Itemization

Lockdown chains and early aggression. Kill the ramp before it starts; never chase her through walls.
