HOK Lady Zhen Skills and Abilities
Frozen Touch (Passive): Every time lady Zhen deals damage with a skill, she applies a freeze mark to the target that lasts for 7 seconds. After stacking 3 layers, the target will be frozen for 1 second, dealing 350 (+52% magic bonus) points of magic damage.
Cooldown: 0s Cost: 0
Tips: Zhen Ji uses her passive skill to provide control effects and additional damage.
Ocean Of Tears (Skill 01): Lady Zhen summons a water column at a designated location, dealing 500/590/680/770/860/950 (+65% magic bonus) points of magic damage to enemies within the area and knocking them up for 0.8 seconds.
Cooldown: 8s Cost: 70
Tips: This is Zhen Ji’s control skill. The skill has a certain delay time, which makes it less effective as an opener and less likely to control opponents. It requires predicting opponents’ movements.
Flowing Sigh (Skill 02): Lady Zhen guides the water flow in a specific direction. The flow locks onto enemies and bounces between them, bouncing up to 6 times, with each enemy being hit a maximum of 2 times. Each bounce deals 300/350/400/450/500/550 (+40% magic bonus) points of magic damage to the enemy.
Cooldown: 6s Cost: 60
Tips: This is a decent AOE skill, and the damage is high. It targets individual enemies, which is very reliable. It can deal significant damage in team fights and has a relatively short cooldown. It is mainly used for clearing lanes and harassment.
Destructive Deluge (Ultimate): Lady Zhen releases the essence of water in a specific direction, pushing non-hero units away. When the essence hits an enemy hero or reaches its maximum distance, it forms a water area. The first hero directly hit takes 400/500/600 (+65% magic bonus) points of magic damage and has their movement speed reduced by 90% for 1 second. The water area lasts for 5 seconds, dealing 200/250/300 (+32% magic bonus) points of magic damage per second to enemies in contact and reducing their movement speed by 50% for 2 seconds.
Cooldown: 45/40/35s Cost: 100
Tips: A pentakill God skill! It deals sustained high damage within the area and can be combined with the passive skill to form an AOE control skill.

Lazy Zhen Teammates Recommendation
Zhang Fei: His first two skills before activating his ultimate can protect Zhen Ji, allowing her to use her skills to damage and control enemies. His ultimate can also protect Zhen Ji. After activating it, his first two skills can damage and slow enemies, allowing Zhen Ji to safely use her skills to damage enemies.
Huang Zhong: After setting up his cannon, Huang Zhong often becomes a target for enemies. When enemies attack Huang Zhong, Zhen Ji’s ultimate can hit more enemies, output damage while passively controlling them, relieving pressure on Huang Zhong. Under the protection of support, they can together kill enemy heroes.
Lazy Zhen Counter
Han Xin: Zhen Ji, being a fragile mage, is afraid of assassins like Han Xin who have high damage and many displacement abilities.
Diao Chen: Zhen Ji’s skills don’t limit Diao Chan very well.
Battle Tips:
- Skilled positioning can help dodge Zhen Ji’s control skills.
- During team fights, avoid staying too close to teammates to prevent Zhen Ji from landing considerable AOE damage through control. As Zhen Ji is a relatively fragile magic damage dealer, she fears assassins’ dives and controls during team fights. Thus, good positioning is needed to ensure survival.
Lazy Zhen Team Fight Strategy
Zhen Ji’s first skill has a certain delay time. When counterattacking, there is a higher hit rate. After controlling the enemy with her skills, combining her second and third skills can deal very high AOE damage.
In a team fight, it’s necessary to first use other skills to consume passive layers and find the right time to use her ultimate and second skill’s AOE damage to hit more enemies.
