Zeri's Runes

New Meta: 

In the new meta, Zeri will use the "Conqueror" rune as the main rune.

Definitely a "Lethal Tempo" rune because Zeri's power comes from attack speed. With 40% increased attack speed from the "Lethal Tempo", in any teamfight, Zeri will stand out when dealing massive damage.

Choose the "Brutan" if you're up against a weaker champion, and "Hunter - Vampirism" if you need to last longer, choose the Hunter gem - lifesteal.

To make sure Zeri is stronger in combat, you can choose the 3rd gem, the "Nullifying Orb".

Zeri Build Breakdown

New Meta: 

In Patch 4.4. The strongest equipment for Zeri is equipment for attack power and magic power. That means you will increase 50% of equipment that deals magic power and 50% of equipment that deals attack power.

The reason is that in Patch 4.4 , it is the mage meta. In addition, Zeri has up to 3 skills that deal magic damage.

I've played 30 games with Zeri up to half AD, AP giving me a win rate of 85%, an extremely impressive number. With just 1 combo of "Ultrashock Laser" shot from the side of the wall (for highest damage) then glide "Spark Surge" to reach the enemy. And the ending is "Lightning Crash" that ensures a lightning strike that can finish off any enemy.

-----

Zeri will be strongest when building critical items. And if you still want to stack damage like an assassin, you can build AP items.

With the first item you will get, "Stormrazor" is very suitable for a champion that uses electricity to deal damage like Zeri. Grants attack speed and crit.

After trying it out, I found that Zeri has crit items and attack speed is the strongest. The damage spell build is not really impressive.

Besides, Zeri has a tendency to deal more splash damage from the skill set. There are many new attack speeds that are useful in teamfights.

How to play Zeri

Just keep your distance from any enemy champion and you will win. Note that basic attacks will be blocked by minions. And Zeri's normal attack is like a directional skill, so when playing, you need to pay attention every time you attack, predict the direction of the enemy to shoot more accurately, it will be a bit tiring.

Use wall corners to double damage with High Voltage Pulse.

When fighting, always choose a position to stand near the edges of the wall. If attacked by an enemy, you can use "Ultrashock Laser" to escape.

The early game is relatively weak, attack when there is an advantage, otherwise actively farm to draw. Always keep "Ultrashock Laser" only use when needed because the cooldown is very long.

And if you use "Ultrashock Laser", attack continuously because at this time the damage and speed have been increased much.

Another important thing is that from the rune table to the way to build Zeri, all focus on increasing attack speed. That means in any teamfight or the whole laning phase you should always be the first to attack.

Rush at the enemy then turn on the ultimate. The rest is to let Zeri's attack speed do the rest.

Q&A

Is Zeri good in Wild Rift?

If you can overcome the difficult phase at the beginning of the match. Zeri in Wild Rift will be very strong when equipped. If you appear at the right time in a team fight. Zeri can destroy the entire enemy team thanks to the wide area damage from her ultimate and attack speed.
