Playing against Zeri
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Point-and-click CC is the best counter to Zeri: she's too mobile for skillshots when her R is active.
2
Her E can go through walls but has a long cooldown — punish her after the dash.
3
Zeri is weak in the early game and needs items to be effective — force fights early.
4
Her R speed disappears out of combat — disengage and re-engage when R expires.
