Our Mods!
Hello I'm Lyrie, a freelance illustrator who worked on zines such as Forged Legends, Defenders of Teyvat and Meriwether as page artist!Heizou is a really good subdps being able to swirl for res shred while also dealing decent amount of damage. It's important to prioritise crit rate over crit damage because his damage revolves heavily around his E meaning missing crits can be a huge dps loss. His best artifact set is VV but to maximise his damage, 2pc 2pc is viab

Frequently Asked Questions
About the Zine
What is a Zine?
A "zine," short for "fanzine," is a type of publication, often in booklet form, produced by fans and centered around a certain theme. This publication can be digital or physical. It usually contains art, writing, and sometimes also includes merchandise. A zine can be profit or nonprofit depending on the creators.So, What is Deerzou? Why Deerzou?
"Deerzou" is how the fandom has begun to refer to Heizou as a deer kemonomimi type character! The idea comes from his constellation being a deer, as well as the "shika" in his name (shikanoin), which translates to "deer!" Deerzou has become beloved by many among Heizou fans and so we'd like to dedicate this zine to him!Will this be a Physical or Digital Zine?
Both! We offer a physical print version and a PDF digital version.
