Champion Lore

Utterly ruthless and without mercy, Zed is the leader of the Order of Shadow, an organization he created with the intent of militarizing Ionia’s martial arts traditions to drive out Noxian invaders. During the war, desperation led him to unlock the secret shadow form—a malevolent spirit magic as dangerous and corrupting as it is powerful. Zed has mastered all of these forbidden techniques to destroy anything he sees as a threat to his nation, or his new order.

Abilitites




Contempt for the Weak (Passive) Whenever Zed auto attacks an enemy below 50% Health, he deals an additional 6 / 8 / 10% of their maximum Health as magic damage. The amount is increased at level 7 and at level 17. This effect cannot occur on the same target more than once every 10 seconds.



Razor Shuriken (Q)

COST: 75 / 70 / 65 / 60 / 55
COOLDOWN: 6
Active: Zed and his shadows throw their shurikens, dealing 80 / 115 / 150 / 185 / 220 (+0.9 per bonus attack damage) physical damage to all enemies they pass through, reduced to 60% against units beyond the first.

Living Shadow: Additional shurikens striking the same enemy restore energy.



Living Shadow (Q)

RANGE: 700
COST: 40 / 35 / 30 / 25 / 20
COOLDOWN: 22 / 20 / 18 / 16 / 14
Zed's shadow dashes forward, remaining in place for 5 seconds. Reactivating this ability will cause Zed to switch positions with this shadow.

Zed's shadow will mimic his basic abilities. If both strike the same target Zed regains 30 / 35 / 40 / 45 / 50 energy. Energy can only be restored once per mimicked ability.



Shadow Slash (Q)

COST: 50
COOLDOWN: 5 / 4.5 / 4 / 3.5 / 3
Active: Zed and his shadows create a burst of shadow, dealing 70 / 95 / 120 / 145 / 170 (+0.8 per bonus attack damage) physical damage to nearby enemies.

Zed's slash reduces the cooldown of Living Shadow by 1 second for each enemy struck. His shadows' slashes slow enemies by 20 / 25 / 30 / 35 / 40% for 1.5 seconds.

Living Shadow: Overlapping Shadow Slashes striking the same enemy deal no additional damage but will incur an increased slow of 30 / 37.5 / 45 / 52.5 / 60% and restore energy.


Death Mark (Q)

COOLDOWN: 120 / 90 / 60
Active: Zed becomes untargetable and dashes to target enemy champion. Upon arrival, he marks the target for death and spawns a living shadow at his starting position. This shadow lasts 6 seconds and mimics Zed's abilities. After 0.5 seconds Zed can reactivate Death Mark, causing him to switch positions with this shadow.

After 3 seconds, the mark will detonate, dealing physical damage equal to 100% of Zed's attack damage plus 25 / 40 / 55% of damage dealt of all magic and physical damage dealt to the target by Zed and his shadows while the mark was active.

Zed gains 5 Attack Damage + 5 / 10 / 15% of the target's total attack damage..

Skill Sequence / Item Sequence




Let us begin with the Skill Sequence:

Razor Shuriken First --> This is always our first ability. Since we are a Meele Champ and facing Range Champs, we can use it for poke and farming.

Shadow Slash Second --> I always take E second because with W i have an disadvantage when i get shoved into tower. If u can properly mange to have Lane control and can maybe burst your opponent down and kill him take W. But that is a 1% chance that it will happen ^^

Living Shadow Third --> Now you can start proper trades in lane. You can proc Electrocute and burst the health of you opponent. sometimes you can all in or you'll wait and hit 4 to have 2 points in your Q to kill them.


Let's go for the Items:

I always start Long Sword and 3 Health Potions with Zed.

Spells


SUMMONER SPELLS
-
FLASH: Let’s start with the standard Summoner Spell. Flash is good for engage or disengage plays. .
IGNITE: We use Ignite for lane pressure or kill pressure. Make sure you use i properly and don’t waste it when people are full health or smth like that. At Level 4 wih zed you cann get First Blood if you managed the lane correctly.

Laning / Farming

Items


Items




Zed – Master oft he Shadows
Melee, Assassin, Split Pusher

Synergy: God Tier
Jungler ganking potential: Mid
Speciality: Living in the Shadows

Come and get me With Zed laning is kinda boring ^^. Most oft he Mid lane Champs are way stronger in the early than you are, specially with Bone Plating. The good thing with Zed is your passive makes it veery easy to last hit minions under your turret. You can Farm with your Q, so you don’t lose all of your health to get minions. What i try to do in the early is, while i last hit Minions with my Q, i try to hit my enemy too. Level 3 you can do a little trade to proc your Electrocute. If the didn’t pick Bone Plating you can half health them easily. Level 4 you can all in and kill them. If you are lucky and your Jungler ganks Level 3 and has CC it is definetly a First Blood for you. After that just try to rush 6. If it is possible, roam and get kills. Zed can easily 1 vs 9 when he is fed. But you need to make sure not to miss your combos.

I Hope you like my Guide to Zed. As i said it before, it is the way how i play him.
