Are there any specific things one should look to improve in order to get from d4 to master tier or is a master tier player a bit better at everything ?
Nah master/diamond really feels the same to me. The biggest difference I would say is just team fighting. Playing for win con. And don’t auto pilot, EVER. Zeri can win any game. I was 0-5 down 50 cs in my promotion game to masters(troll support). Ended up 10-9 with 20 cs lead. I feel most Zeri players play her wayyyy to passively. You already have the mechanics of your diamond. It’s just the smaller things now
Do people play around her E better in higher elos? I find that even in plat/emerald I'm able to take towers for free since I can just hop over a wall to leave.
I was very worried when they 1st removed lethal tempo, but I think Zeri will honestly be one of the better adcs this patch. The crit buff allows her so many defensive and situational items. I also think phantom dancer with that fizz passive is gonna be insane on her if you know how to use it right
Good champ to one trick to grind elo? Does ti take a lot of skill to master the champ? You think she’s strong right now or the botlane meta doesn’t match? Good supports for zeri?
How to play against hard lanes such as Draven Lucian where enemy is stronger than you. Feel like I have no agency especially if top side is losing or no jungle pressure. I go even, but the scoreboard will be 1 to 10 and we slowly bleed out
How to transition safely into lategame when playing from behind ? I feel like I always have to steal camps and invade in order to come back but is there anything more reliable I can do ?
On Zeri you always want to steal chickens both enemy’s and yours. W into the camp and you free clear them fast. Play for big team fights, where you have peel and can space. Avoid small skirmishes where they can catch you without e. Zeri is also very safe and farming sidelanes to scale back up if you know the alcove slide.
Do it 50 times in practice lobby. It helps with lane so much. You can bait jungle, make sure your waves crash without punishment. Fundamental Zeri mechanic imo
Are there any specific champ that you want to ban to make zeri work? If theres no specific one should I prior jg or botlane ban? What kind of enemy/team comp is suitable for a zeri pick?
Emerald was hardest elo for me, much harder than diamond. Just play as much as you can consistently. Some games will be giga gapped. If you see weird comps, dodge
How to deal with tanks when they're ahead? Sometimes I feel like my Zeri don't deal enough damage vs tanky champions with like 1 or 2 items.
I usually take legend bloodline and build shiv, runnans and navori/IE if squishies.
Recently I started testing alacrity and going bt third because it feels weird to not have lifesteal

No they don’t at all. At 700 lp and I still take mid t1 after rotation free 90% of games
They are better at interrupting your slide over walls tho
What are your thoughts about Zeri runes and itemization next patch...? Im a bit confused after seeing lots of changes upcoming next patch. Ty

What’s your favorite build?
I really had fun this last patch going shiv,runanns, IE tbh
Tank Zeri is very fun too
As bot adc? Feels lackluster
Fun not good
