The Adaptive Shell Jak’Sho build combined with the Serpent Ax helped Zeri return to the Justice Arena after a long time at the ‘bottom of society’.
Experiencing constant updates, being nerfed directly from the team of 200 years of experience, Zeri from a very strong champion both in the professional arena and in casual matches has slipped to the ‘social bottom’ and almost like no one wants to use her Lightning Castle Zaun in League of Legends anymore.

However, things changed after the 2023 Pre-Season began with the introduction of new items. Many pro players have found a way to give Zeri more foothold in the game by making her a super resistant adc with her new Adaptive Shell Jak’Sho and Serpent Ax. The most typical case of this continuous build for Zeri is the Hanwha Life Esports player Viper.

So why does Zeri work so well when using these two items? The first answer is due to Zeri’s high mobility. With the ability to move continuously and be flexible in combat, Zeri can easily accumulate stacks for this equipment effectively. In addition, both the skill regeneration or health bonus from Adaptive Cover Jak’Sho can work very well when equipped on Zeri, allowing her to deal more damage.

Next, let’s talk about the Snake Ax. Buying this item as Zeri’s first item will give her a steady damage early in the game along with a bit of resistance thanks to the extra lifesteal. After gaining Adaptive Cover Jak’Sho, Zeri can completely become a damage machine that is both mobile and resistant, but can still ensure a stable output of damage. By building these two items, Zeri will be able to withstand more teamfights as an ADC in the squad.

However, players should also note that the Adaptive Shell Jak’Sho should be Zeri’s third item. The first two equipment players need to prioritize will be the Serpent Ax and Runaan’s Rage, respectively. This will allow her to have a stable amount of damage guaranteed and the ability to clear minions before having a resistance item. If you try to buy Jak’Sho first, the result is likely that Zeri will suffer from a lack of damage, which will slow down her progress for the duration of the match.

The gameplay of Zeri Jak’Sho Adaptive Shell will turn her into a ranged Gladiator in disguise and possess high mobility in combat. If you are a main Zeri player, then you certainly will not want to miss the opportunity to experience this strange but extremely effective build with the Lightning girl Zaun.
