Conc + inspiration
he is stronger than you early game. Don't fight him for crab or 1v1 in general. Can start fighting him once u hit 6. Fight when you have a good kill opportunity (from counter ganks). I recommend piroritising full clear than going to crab/gank.
Lee Sin
Conc + inspiration
Same as xin zhao, stronger jungler than u early on. Wait for 6 spike if you want to 1v1 otherwise do full clears and play with team.
Warwick
Conc + inspiration
don't even try to 1v1 this match up pre 6. You have a faster clear than him, so try to track his movement and play accordingly. If you mid/side lane has prio, can contest crab.
Zac
Go Conc + sorcery to match his speed and counter gank.
he is tanky and has alot of CC and high mobility. very annoying. If enemy team has more cc, go merc threads.
Ekko
Go electro+sorcery
He is squishy but has high burst damage pre6 like you. You can contest for crab and make sure your team has prio. Crab's not worth dying for and just run to the other crab he is not in.
Fiddlesticks
Electro+sorcery
He is pretty squishy, so you can fight him early on. Becareful because his fear+succ can be pretty annoying. Just make sure you have vision of him or know where he is approx before ganking someone after he gets 6.
Nocturne
if he has lethal tempo, don't ever get caught by his fear pre 6. You will hard lose the trade. Always keep W to interrupt his E. try to counter gank him.
Rengar
Conc+inspration
Annoying enemy. His burst damage is huge so be careful. Don't have much experience against jungle rengers but don't fight in his territory(bushes).
Trundle
Conc+inspiration
Way too strong for you to 1v1 early/mid game. Always fight with team otherwise escape.
Viego
Conc+inspiration
Pretty hard to play against because of his Q sustain and W stun.
Master Yi
Conc+sorcery
Pretty rough match up pre 6 since you can't do anything when he Q. If you can play around it or with team mate, you can kill him solo, otherwise just w out to safety and wait for ulti.
Graves
Electro+inspiration
he is fair squishy before he gets shieldbow. Can contest crab. You can easily kill him once u hit 6 but he has high damage, so be careful.
Evelynn
Electro+ inspiration
Same as ekko but more annoying since her ulti can dodge your ulti's final tick.
Talon
Conc+sorcery
He is pretty strong and hard to fight him face on pre 6.
Qiyana
Electrocute+ inspiration
She is pretty much the same as zed but with a slightly slower clear and higher burst damage. if you can bait out her abilities, you can go for 1v1 but she can do the same to you, so becareful.
Jarvan IV
Conc + inspiration
Same as xin zhao. He has good reach with his Q E , so you have to very careful when fighting him pre 6. don't contest crab unless your lanes have prio. He has strong burst damage when he has his full combo but the 11.20 nerf will reduce that abit.
Dr. Mundo
Conc+ inspiration
Punching bag, you just need to avoid his Qs if you want to fight him pre 6. He is pretty immobile, so just counter gank him if you can.
Ivern
Conc+ inspiration if tanky enemy comp, Electro+ inspration if squishy enemy comp
Can easily 1v1 pre6 but don't get baited into his team as he can sustain with his shield . Don't let him steal your buff at the start!!! He's pretty weak without Daisy but his root and the mechnic that allows a teammate to get closer is pretty annoying.
Amumu
Conc+ sorcery
Tank amumu is pretty annoying to play against because she has extrememly long cc and if she builds sunfire ageis, you will lose a lot of health from getting hit by just one hook.
Kayn
Conc+inspiration
Just dodge his W when fighting him and you will do fine. Just make sure to build heal cut if he goes red kayn becuase the lifesteal is insane. can fight for crab
Teemo
Free lp xD
Go Electrocute + precision
You can't do anything when he blinds you but you can easily kill him. I would recommend going for lethality item after finishing gore so you can one shot him everytime he walks up to you. who plays teemo jungle anyways xDD
Olaf
Conc+inspiration
He is a really strong enemy to 1v1 if he manage to hit all his axes but 1v1 is doable before level 6. You will eventually outscale him really hard so i don't recommend conflips.
Karthus
Electrocute + inspiration
Same as fiddlestick but even weaker because he literally has no defensive tool except his annoying W wall. i would even recommend you to do red blue gromp and rush to his side for a easy pick off. Free lp
Hi, I am currently a gold 1 player that switched to league from dota 4 months ago. Zed is the first champ i bought and I immediately fell in love with his kit. I have been spamming him in mid but after his jungle buff, i have been experimenting this zed's bruiser build and created this guide to share the build that works pretty well for me.
About Zed Jungle in General
First of all, I recommend playing Zed mid before trying him in jungle if you have no experience with Zed.Zed is not a strong early game champ like popular bruisers such as xin zhao or leesin.
You need to be careful and select your fights properly pre 6 while playing jungle zed because W is his only engage and escape ability.
You want to play relatively safe with zed but you can go for ganks if the enemy is overextended or if your laner set up a dive or when the kill opportunity is certain. No need to rush as you will eventually scale. Having oracle lens all the time is a must on zed as well. You can do objective like dragon and herald pretty easily thanks to your passive. If you are certain that the enemy won't come, you can smite to get the dragon/herald to get it below half health to activate the passive. The damage is crazy.
With this build, you can live alot longer than the full lethality zed build and goredrinker + your passive suprisingly deal a good amount of damage. You can go into fights like a bruiser if you know you won't be bursted immediately and goredrinker allows you to make low hp clutch plays.
Please try this build out and give me your thoughts on it
