He used the item’s passive to build up her stacks, making her ridiculously strong during the mid-late game team fights.Spideraxe@Spideraxe30Zeri changes from Riot August: * MS reduced to 325 from 330* Health damage from right click reduced* Ult lightning damage reduced* Ult lightning can now crittwitch.tv/videos/1281512…3:00 AM · Jan 31, 202230815Zeri changes from Riot August: * MS reduced to 325 from 330* Health damage from right click reduced* Ult lightning damage reduced* Ult lightning can now crittwitch.tv/videos/1281512…Hence, along with the changes mentioned above, Zeri will also not be able to acquire stacks from Runaan’s Hurricane as soon as 12.3 goes live. This will be a significant nerf that her kit will face, as Riot Games will look to balance her for pro play and standard matchmaking.Zeri is yet to debut on the professional stage, and with the upcoming changes, she might just get to enjoy some screen time in the major leagues.
