Early Game
In the early game, play a board centered around any upgraded tank units and an AD item holder.
Since this is a Fast 8 comp, look to lose streak in order to build your economy faster than the rest of the lobby. Prioritize 2 Guinsoo’s Rageblade as those items are Zeri’s best in slot items.
Take note of which Exotech items are offered during the game so you can plan ahead and decide whether you need to prioritize tank or carry item components on carousel rounds.
For example, if you are offered 2 tank Exotech items, consider picking more offensive item components on carousel rounds as the trait itself will provide the tank items.

Mid Game
In the mid game, you need to stabilize your board in order to have enough health to work with during the Level 8 rolldown. So on 3-2 Level to 6 and roll for any tank upgrades and an upgraded Jhin. Nitro is a particularly good early to mid game trait because each Nitro unit synergizes with an Exotech unit and the trait provides an extra unit on the board.

Late Game
On 4-2 push to Level 8 and roll aggressively for your 4 cost units. Try your best not to roll all the way down to 0 gold as you still need to push to Level 9 as your win condition.
After stabilizing in stage 4, push to Level 9 and play 5 cost utility units such as: Garen, Renekton, Zac.
If you have an excess amount of AP items, consider playing Aurora or Kobuko to provide more damage if your comp needs it.
If you have an Exotech Emblem drop Naafiri or Varus for any of the aforementioned 5 cost units.
