Great build! Very in-depth and built more like a bruiser. Like it a lot.

Thanks for the feedback ^^
I'm sorry for the items section, since S3 I haven't been that much time playing, mostly because exams and stuff, and I'm putting all my efforts on making a viable items build. Right now, I'm finishing the offensive and defensive item choices, I'll publish it in 5-10 minutes, sorry for the delay ^^

@G.I.Flow
Yeah, you're right, health isn't that great on Zed, so I've moved Frozen Mallet to the defensive item choices, and explained when to get it. You can practically get the Ravenous Hydra, jump in a teamfight and kick everyone's *** with that humungous amount of AoE damage Zed has, and recovering most of your health thanks to the lifesteal. However, you shouldn't rely on attack speed, as Zed is more a burst champion than an Autoattacking one, so getting more AD instead of attack speed and making your burst bigger will help, you should try it.

I think its not a bad guide, but due to the items i think one could ignore all those with health and buy such with lifesteal and dmg. Just like Yi. I tried it and landed a penta kill after the second game. So it work. And with this much lifesteal and attackspeed u are almost immortal.

You're right >.< Used to get it before I put my thoughts on the survivability, but forgot moving it into situational/optional items section. It's way too expensive to keep up with it, and now in S3 there are better choices for items than Trinity Force.
I'll move it as soon as I can, thanks for the reminder ^^u

Unsure of why you have Trinity Force and Frozen Mallet. Not sure if this was intentional or a mistake.

Viable, and I agree with it. However, misisng some key aspects (especially since u say season 3 update). You need to include an Enchantment for your boots in the item build. I shouldn't have to go to your items chapter to find one. Also, you claim to be season 3 ready, but your build doesn't have any new items, and (unless i just missed this) you seem to have disregarded cost/damage changes to alot of items. Sorry if you disagree with my vote, but it's my personal opinion.


Well, the boots enchantment is in the item section. If anyone is way too lazy to not read the build, it's really his problem. Are you those kind of guys who when reading a build, just read the cheat sheet? Because that's not the point of writing all of the text in the guide.
About the new items, well. As I said, I'm running testing on some of the items in S3, like Blade of the Ruined King, but as I'm not 100% sure those are as viable for Zed as are the others chosen in my build, I won't put then in it yet. Notice that Season 3 started barely some days ago, dude, gimme time to breathe, I'm taking my final exams, I'm doing what I can. I'm trying to keep my build updated, and as of Season 3, I updated the summoner spells, masteries and some of the items. You shoul've had the time and situation factor when voting :/

BTW. TL;DR, if you don't just like long texts, like I just realised. Did you just downvote my guide (though you said you agree with it and think that's viable), because I didn't put a tiny enchantment icon in the "cheat sheet" (probably it annoyed you to go to the items section and look for the enchantment; and because I did not include any of the S3 items? What is Black Cleaver then? What about the changes to most classic items? What if I told you I find none of those truly viable for Zed? Sorry if it seems rude, but it really makes me angry.
