Awesome. Playtest my stuff first, if you have any other tweaks I'd be glad to hear them.

I would strongly recommend taking Q at level 3. Although you're a bit less safe, it strongly improves your burst...

I would personally take rewind at level 4, and the speed up at level 2. There's no way you'll have the mana to use your double bomb combo at level 2 or 3, so you might as well take rewind at level 4. Does that reasoning sound...reasonable? :/

I haven't played zilean since season 2, but ROA wasn't good on him back then and with the advent of grail, it's like, what's the point?


Hmmm...I see your point, and also see the validity behind it. I think I shall archive this for now, and re-publish it once adjustments are complete. Your input is most appreciated.

Alright, I shall take some time and adjust the build with some normal games. However, is the build itself the only reason to downvote? Is all of the information provided in the actual guide acceptable to your standards?

Zilean needs CDR, AP, and mana regen quickly and in huge amounts. ROA doesn't fit that as it only gives a small amount of hp.

Better builds involve items like dfg, morellos, athene's, chalice, rabadons...

Alex Ich has played some zilean in season 3, you should find those games and try out his build!

From Zilean mid experience, early CDR is the way to go. I myself always prefer Morrellos as a first pick, and then Athenes later on.

This is just normal-experience tho :P

Besides that I don't really see why Zile would benefit that much from mana and hp.

Without ignite, you have 0 (zero) (nada) (zip) (zilch) (niet) kill potential on your lane opponent.

I'm not convinced that taking tp on a MID CHAMPION that can roam faster than a nidalee should go tp.


dem languages.
