Also ich hoffe es ist nicht schlimm wenn ich den/das Kommentar idk and idc wie ihr es nennt :D auf deutsch schreibe da ich nicht sonderlich gut in englisch oder sprachen generell bin sorry dafür ^^'. Also dieser Guide gefällt mir echt gut er ist sehr detalliert und gegen so ziemlich jeden champ anwendbar. Ich selber bin Zed Main (stufe 7) aber irgendwann ich weiß nich bin ich iwie schlecht mit ihm geworden ich weiß nich woran das lag aber durch dieses Build habe ich mich schon wieder verbessert
Ps: ich mag dein Profilbild und die Animationen im Guide :D

Ps. idk how many people can write that much in guides
ps, hope that you'll answer
I am an "advanced" Level 7 Zed player. I feel that instead of taking W first you could take E first at level 2 so you can have a better wave clear early on. What are your thoughts on taking E before W?
Also, what do you thing about playing Zed to get out of bronze?
Great guide BTW :)
I think it's very situational, but can work in many scenarios. If you are getting pushed under tower at level 1 and you read that the minions health bars are "unsynched" compared to turret so they'll take too much or too little damage for you to get the creep, I highly recommend taking E as you'd be able to get that cs, which you wouldn't be able to have without E.
If you are not getting pushed in, and the enemy laner is ranged but doesn't use that advantage then going E is a possibility. But if the enemy laner is melee, it's just fine to go E for better waveclear! ;)
If you know how to play Zed, getting out of bronze should be fairly easy (ofc it's hard when feeding teammates, but you gotta understand some games are just lost, especially in bronze/silver), but why is Zed good in bronze? Well, because ADC's aren't very good in bronze, so they won't have good positioning, and supports, lets say a Thresh, doesn't stay with their ADC in lower elo(often), so you'd be able to sneak up from behind and get a kill without getting exhausted and CC-chained.
At first it might be hard to carry with Zed in low elo, but once you become strong on Zed you'll start winning lots of games, I promise! ;) Also, I love playing hard-mechanical champions, and if you think those champions are fun, I think you should play them, instead of taking someone like Annie where you might not find as much fun in her, but you might gain elo quicker(at first hand atleast).
I hope all of that made just a little tiny bity sense, because I wrote it down quick, but if you got any questions about my response or anything else, just ask, I'll be sure to answer!

EDIT; that became one hell of a wall of text, woops ^_^
As I like to play Zed a lot even after the rework I have a few question that needs to be answered.
First, which is a more Viable item on Zed, Edge of Night or Maw of Malmortius. Even with the Armor pen removed I still get Maw for some reason because i get it so that I can get 40% CDR along with Youmuus and Cleaver which are core for me. Any opinions on this on when to get Edge of Night?
Second, I have a hard time on killing enemy APC with Zhonya's active and a Support that has Exhaust on them. Any tips on how to not die stupidly when trying to go for the backline kill? Should I avoid them and get the kill on the ADC or what?
Also, should I get GA last item on Zed every game? I feel like GA gives me more survivability and allows me to have a second chance when I mess up a dive in. Is it good to get it every game or is it really situational?
I hope I get a feedback from you and thanks for the awesome guide.

Heyo Jammy,
Maw vs EoN is a great question. For me it is definitely Maw, because it feels so much more reliable. I've tried EoN in a lot of games and I just haven't had a moment where I felt it was super good, which I have tried tons of times with Maw. I feels EoN's active just is super unreliable, because you have to wait 1.5 sec to activate it and then you are forced to go in a fight the next 10 seconds, I tend to die more when I buy it because of the feeling of needing to go in the fights in the 10 sec the shield is up, if you know what I mean? :) But if you are able to use it for your advantage it might just be very good.
Well it's very situational, but lets say as you have noted that the APC has Zhonyas and support has exhaust. You have 2 options.
1) Flank them and wait for your team to engage, let the enemy think they are winning 5v4 and let the (lets say Thresh) Thresh go in on your team, and if you see him using the exhaust you have to go in and get the APC. If the Thresh is staying around the backline, wait for the APC to use his spells and wait for him to go long behind the enemy team, so you can easily pick up out of the fight, without the 4 other members turning around and killing you.
2) Go for the ADC, but usually same situation, wait for the exhaust or the support tunnel visioning on your team ;)
It depends. If you are super fed and the enemy team is tunnelvisioning you hard, I love a GA, because it gives me a second chance (to escape/let your team follow up). However if you are feeling safe and feel like you know how to go into teamfights without just ulting the ADC and then 5 members tunneling on you and you die, but instead wait around to let them use their abilities and such. ;)
I hope that cleared some of your questions up, otherwise just ask again and I'll try to re-explain myself! :D
I'm the real Carnifex though :(( don't do this to me senpai
That's me.
