Moving and casting Burst Fire stores up energy in Zeri&#8217;s Sparkpack. When fully charged, her next Attack will slow and deal bonus damage. Burst Fire shoots a burst of 7 rounds that deal attack damage to the first enemy hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">W Ability &#8211; <strong>ULTRASHOCK LASER<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Zeri_W.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Zeri fires an electric pulse that slows and damages the first enemy hit.

If the buff expires before the fight is over or enemies can disengage and allow your buff your fall off, Zeri will be significantly less powerful in subsequent engagements. Note which enemy characters must fully commit to fighting and which characters can effectively dip in and out of combat. Example: Vi using Cease and Desist (R), essentially commits her and her team to a decisive fight. Kassadin using Riftwalk (R) does not necessarily constitute a commitment, as he can Riftwalk out shortly after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trick #1 &#8211; Pathfinding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several Spark Surge (E) routes that strong Zeri players use to return to their lane of choice <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proguides.com\/guides\/league-of-legends\/10-unknown-mechanics-you-must-learn-for-league\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"10 Tricks The Pros Abuse To Gain An Edge\">much faster after taking a recall<\/a>. Throughout the game, doing this efficiently will net you several more minions of gold and experience than walking to lane normally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Trick #2 &#8211; Surging Engage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultrashock Laser (W) is commonly used while traveling through walls with Spark Surge (E) as a strong engage opportunity for you or your teammates. W otherwise does significantly less damage or creates a significant amount of downtime<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Spark of Zaun, Zeri, is a League of Legends champion that channels electric magic to charge herself and her gun.
