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
살아있는 배터리제리의 기본 공격은 마법 피해를 입히며 스킬로 간주됩니다. 이동하거나 집중 사격을 사용하면 제리의 스파크 팩에 에너지가 쌓입니다. 완전히 충전되면 제리의 다음 기본 공격이 추가 피해를 입힙니다.
Strong: shields grant her move speed — she surfs your peel. Weak: baked-in tempo, not a button — just mind the surges.
Q
집중 사격처음 적중한 적에게 물리 피해를 입히는 공격 7발을 발사합니다. 이 스킬은 기본 공격으로 간주됩니다.
Strong: her 'autos' are burst skillshots that pierce minions. Weak: they're dodgeable — lateral strafing cuts her DPS in half.
W
초강력 레이저제리가 전기 파동을 발사해 처음 적중하는 적을 둔화시키고 피해를 입힙니다. 파동이 벽에 맞으면 장거리 레이저로 확산됩니다.
Strong: a long laser through walls when it clips terrain. Weak: narrow and slow — respect only the wall-clip angles.
E
스파크 돌진제리가 짧은 거리를 돌진하며 집중 사격을 충전합니다. 충전된 집중 사격은 적을 꿰뚫습니다. 돌진 시 맞닥트리는 지형을 모두 뛰어넘습니다.
Strong: dashes over WALLS and empowers her next shots. Weak: a real cooldown — she's mortal for the next ten seconds.
R
번개 방출제리가 전류를 방출하고 자신을 과충전해, 피해량과 이동 속도가 증가합니다. 제리가 적 챔피언을 맞힐 때마다 이동 속도 증가 효과가 중첩되고 지속시간이 회복됩니다. 과충전된 동안 집중 사격이 더욱 빠른 3연발 사격으로 바뀌며, 대상 주변 적에게 번개가 연쇄적으로 튑니다.
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.
