Champion Build Guide
Introduction
![]() |
Hey, I'm Frost and this guide is about my ![]() I'm an Anivia Main but Zed is one of my favourite Champions! In this guide I'm gonna show you how to play him to climb easily in SoloQ! Zed is a classic assasin champion. He's super good in taking the priority target out of the teamfight but loses has to play safe once his ![]() His laning phase isnt that bad and relatively easy because you got energy and no mana. He can snowball super easy and is super fun to play once ahead. Theres no better feeling then to 100 - 0 anyone you want and doing the same thing 30sec later again when your ulti is up |
These are my stats in Season 10 on one of my dia accs in EUW

Combos / Tricks
Lane Poke
W
Living Shadow > E
Shadow Slash > Q
Razor Shuriken
What you can always do in lane is throw your Q
Razor Shuriken at the enemy. For your full poke combo you start with your W
Living Shadow, try to hit your E
Shadow Slash on him instantly.
Now he is slowed and you can hit your Q
Razor Shuriken on him. Try to hit both Q's on him for maximum damage.
W

Shadow Slash > Autoattack > Q
Razor Shuriken
Basic all in combo. You can always swap up the combo but this is the most simple one.
Start by using W
Living Shadowto get into the enemys range. Follow up with your R
Death Mark and start dealing damage with your E
Shadow Slash, your Q
Razor Shuriken and as many auto attacks as possible.
Try to proc
Electrocute and damage as much as possible until your
Death Mark pops.
You can usually stop and jump back to your ulti shadow once the shuriken appears on them, which marks that they will die.
Keep in your mind that people can
Heal or
Zhonya's Hourglass the R pop damage tho.

Razor Shuriken
This Combo is usually the max damage combo if you manage to hit all 3 of your
Razor Shuriken.
You start this combo off by using your ulti
Death Mark. This means you have to either be in range for it or
Flash for it, which is often not worth tho.
Follow up with a
Living Shadow to position for your E and your
Razor Shuriken. In the best scenario you hit everyone and he is almost guarenteed to be dead.

Playstyle
IN LANE
Try to farm minions safe against range champions. You can always use your
Razor Shuriken as last hitting or poke tool.
Against meelee champions you can play more aggresive and go for some early trades.
At lvl 3 you can go for basic poke combos, which means using W
Living Shadowaggresively and using your E and Q for damage.
If you land some of those combos you can go for an early all in.
Besides that farm up and if you snowball try to zone your laner as good as u can.
At lvl 6 you can almost always look for a 1v1. Either try to catch your lane opponent offguard or invade the enemy jgl for some nice kills.

OUT OF LANE
Try to roam as much as possible. Your main spot to be is the sidelane tho.
Splitting works super well if youre even or ahead, since you can 1v1 almost everyone in the game (Be careful once your
Death Mark is on cooldown tho!)
This needs some coordination with your team and good vision, so keep that in mind!
Try to catch people who are solo and use your strenghts. In teamfights try to assasinate the major carry in the enemy team by jumping into the backline and hitting him with your full combo. Try to escape with your
Death Mark shadow once he is going to die.
