There hasn't been a champion this year that has experienced the turmoil as Zeri has in League of Legends 2022. Riot had to intervene, and they nerfed her. After that, Zeri was one of the worst, if not the worst, champions in terms of solo queue win rate.
Because of that, Riot decided to make some changes to this AD carry champion. Some of Zeri's skills are undergoing substantial alterations as Riot plans for her to be played differently than in the past.
Zeri's base stats are improved. Now she won't rely so much on her abilities. Here are all the base stats changes:
