League of Legends’ Zeri is getting nerfed next patch

Zeri, the Spark of Zaun, recently joined League of Legends with the MOBA game’s 12.2 patch. Since then, we’ve seen the champion’s Runaan’s Hurricane interaction nerfed, and now a whole bunch of other balance changes have come to the PBE for a round of testing ahead of the next major update’s live debut soon.

As per the League of Legends patch 12.4 notes – which are based on what’s currently on the testing servers – Zeri’s Q ability Burst Fire is in for the most changes. Notably, the base damage her Q deals is being dialled down, though on the upside for Zeri mains the ability’s base damage can now crit, so has the potential to pack an extra punch.

Elsewhere, Burst Fire’s right-click slow effect is getting a slight nerf in both the amount dealt at the lower ranks and its duration, and its uncharged right-click damage has also dropped. However, the slow amount at the maximum rank has been buffed slightly and the uncharged right-click low health multiplier has increased, too.
