Playstyle Strengths

While Zetian already has decent survivability, when paired with supports who can protect allies like Floryn and Rafaela, Fighters with limited range will struggle even more to approach Zetian. And with the healing from these supports, Zetian can win any ranged battle of attrition.

Weaknesses

Zetian's Ultimate can strike down anywhere on the map, but having such a powerful Ult means a hero like Valentina can also use it against Zetian's team.

Top 3 Tips for Playing Zetian

Clear waves fast, then rotate to help jungle or roam — mana efficiency matters more than chasing kills.
Build Clock of Destiny or Lightning Truncheon first for power spikes at mid-game.
Always stay behind your tank in team fights — your job is burst damage, not absorbing skillshots.
