Zeri vs Twitch

Confidence highUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

This lane turns on Zeri punishing Twitch's predictable CS paths with (W) through walls.
Zeri wins extended trades with (R) active and terrain to kite, while Twitch relies on stealth for picks.
Zeri needs to avoid early burst trades before items and use wave states that keep escape walls accessible.

Trading pattern

Step up to auto Twitch during last-hit animations if enemy support is out of range.
Use (W) through walls to punish Twitch's predictable CS paths when he walks up.
Avoid trading when (E) is down or enemy support controls brush and engage zones.

Danger windows

(Q) stealth with support follow-up creates sudden all-in threats; respect missing enemy ADC timing.
Avoid stepping forward when (E) poison stacks are high, as his burst damage spikes.
Be cautious near brush or river when enemy support can immediately follow Twitch's stealth engages.

Early game

Hold the wave near your side to reduce Twitch's stealth engage angles.
Punish Twitch's last hits only if enemy support can't immediately countertrade or zone.
Avoid pushing early waves too hard to keep wall access for (E) escapes and resets.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) enables extended fights where Zeri's mobility and DPS outpace Twitch's burst.
First completed marksman item lets Zeri safely contest plates and punish Twitch's limited early damage.
Two-item spike strengthens Zeri's kite and poke, forcing fights around walls where Twitch struggles to engage.

Win conditions

Convert health and poke leads into crashing waves to take turret plates and force Twitch recalls.
Use wall (W) poke and (E) mobility to maintain safe farming until item spikes.
Leverage (R) for extended fights around terrain to kite Twitch and control dragon setups effectively.
