Guide to Countering Sivir as Zeri

Advice to Win Against Sivir

When laning against Sivir, it is possible to throw off the timing of her Spell Shield by faking an advance, then backing off.

Sivir is a powerful pushing champion, so leaving her unattended in a lane for too long will often result in your turrets being destroyed.

Boomerang Blade costs a lot of mana to cast, so dodging it sets Sivir back. If it hits you on the way out, avoid its path on the way back.
