In TFT Set 13, the Zeri Reroll comps revolve around building a strong team around Zeri, who is a hyper-carry scaling off Attack Speed and On-Hit damage. The goal of this strategy is to reroll early to hit 3-star Zeri while building an item base that maximizes her damage output. This comp can be powerful when executed well, but it requires strong understanding of when to level and when to reroll.
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to play the Zeri Reroll comps effectively in TFT Set 13:
1. Core Units for Zeri Reroll Comps
The core champions of the Zeri Reroll comps revolve around Zeri, and she typically benefits from the Tristana (for the Yordle synergy) and Jhin (for the Cannoneer synergy). A standard Zeri Reroll comps might look like this:
Zeri (5-cost carry, focus on 3-starring her)
Tristana (2-cost, for Yordle synergy and some frontline presence)
Jhin (for synergy with Cannoneers, which supports your damage output)
Yuumi (to provide healing and support)
Kaisa (for extra scaling potential with On-Hit or damage buffs)
Secondary champions and synergies can vary, but some additional units often seen in the Zeri comps can include:
Vi (for a tankier frontline)
Blitzcrank (if you need more crowd control or tankiness)
Kennen or Lulu (as additional support with CC or buffs)
2. Itemization
Zeri benefits from Attack Speed and On-Hit effects. Your ideal Zeri items are:
Guinsoo's Rageblade (stacks Attack Speed over time)
Runaan's Hurricane (splits Zeri's attacks to hit multiple enemies, increasing her DPS)
Infinity Edge or Rabadon's Deathcap (for scaling her damage)
Titan's Resolve (for tankiness and damage scaling)
You want to prioritize items that make Zeri more survivable and increase her DPS output. Other items for frontline tanks or utility units may include:
Sunfire Aegis or Bramble Vest for frontline tanks (e.g., Vi or Blitzcrank)
Dragon's Claw for magic resistance
Morellonomicon for healing reduction on an enemy tank or support unit
3. Early Game Strategy
Leveling and Rolling: Start by going for a 9 or 10 unit comp by aiming to hit level 4 or 5 early and reroll aggressively for Zeri (or other core units like Tristana). The idea is to hit Zeri 3-star as quickly as possible. Focus your rerolls on 2-star Zeri, then level to 7 for maximum chances to get 3-star Zeri and also 3-star any other key units like Tristana or Jhin.
Economy: Don’t overly greed for level 9 unless you’ve hit your core champions and have enough power to carry the game. Instead, reroll and save gold for key intervals.
4. Mid-Game Transition
Hit Zeri 2-star: As soon as you have Zeri 2-star, transition your comps into a more sustainable team with added frontline units and supportive synergies. Zeri works well with champions that provide sustain (like Yuumi) or shields (like Lulu).
Adjust Positioning: Make sure Zeri is positioned well enough to deal damage and not get focused too early. Ideally, you want to position your frontliners (like Vi) at the front while Zeri stays behind protected by tanks.
5. Late-Game Power
Once you reach level 8 or 9, you should be aiming for 3-star Zeri. By this point, you should also have the core items on her, and the team should be built to support Zeri with a solid frontline, debuffing enemies or healing her as needed.
Level 9 gives you access to adding strong 5-cost units like Yuumi, Jhin, or Kaisa for extra damage scaling and utility.
6. Synergies to Focus On
Yordles (Tristana): If you have multiple Yordles on the board, this synergy grants a chance to avoid damage, making your team tankier.
Cannoneers (Jhin, Kaisa): Zeri synergizes well with the Cannoneer trait as they benefit from high Attack Speed and explosive damage.
You may also look to add:
Laser Corps if you need extra sustain and damage.
Headhunters for extra scaling in damage, depending on how the meta shifts.
7. Common Pitfalls
Over-Rolling Too Early: Avoid rolling too early at level 6 or 7 without a solid economy. You may miss out on better units or 3-star Zeri if you’re too eager.
Under-Itemizing Zeri: Zeri relies on strong scaling from items and 3-star power. Don’t neglect her core items (Guinsoo’s, Runaan’s, etc.) or focus too much on random damage items.
Ignoring Frontline Strength: Even though Zeri is the carry, her damage is highly dependent on her frontline being sturdy enough to let her get hits in. Don’t neglect tank units.
Final Tips
Patience is key with reroll comps—sometimes the path to 3-star Zeri takes longer than expected. Be patient but decisive.
Pivoting to a secondary carry unit like Jhin can be a good backup plan if you’re not able to fully commit to a Zeri-focused build.
By executing these strategies, the Zeri Reroll comps can be a fun and powerful option to dominate the TFT Set 13 meta!
