His damage in teamfights is ridiculous. Stay away from his combos. His 100-0 is very potent. But guess who has a Leona ultimate on a 5 second cooldown? Zilean <3

Introduction
Level Sorcery to increase damage from Zilean's Spells
Level Expose Weakness to optimise team fights and ganking.
I don't level Ferocity up to Opppressor/Bounty Hunter, despite the synergy for damage, or Piercing Thoughts, for the Magic Penetration, because I prefer the added utility from Resolve.
Wanderer is for roaming or getting back to lane after backing.
Secret Stash is FOR THE BISCUITS! I mean, for extra sustain.
Mana is the biggest issue early on, so I prefer Meditation over Merciless.
Of course, level Dangerous game for the clutch plays.
I prefer Precision over Intelligence, and it's because that extra 5% will only lower Zilean's Ultimate cooldown from 36 seconds to 33 seconds.
For optimum lane trading, level Thunderlord's Decree.
The power given up from not leveling the Ferocity tree now manifests itself as utility.
Leveling Recovery gives more sustain.
Leveling Explorer Increases roaming potential.

The Maths is above, but here is the reasoning.
Doran's ring and two Health Potions set you up for a decent early game.
Rushing The Lost Chapter, and another Doran's Ring further adds to your laning presence.
Upon Finishing your "Core Items", you have immense power and can easily roam. The rest of the items are self explanatory.

Q is normally levelled first, unless you co-ordinate an invade with your team, in which case, take E.
Assuming that you didn't invade, level W second. Level E third, for the utility, and max Q, of course putting points into your Ultimate (R) whenever possible. After maxing Q, scatter points between lowering the cooldown of W, and increasing the movement speed buff/debuff.

A well-known fact, if you cast two Q's on a minion and it dies, both instances of damage are applied. Especially fun if you are vs'ing a melee champion.
Do you REALLY want this minion?
Also, baiting your enemies to towerdive or to aim you is so funny, and extremely satisfying.
Be sure to ALWAYS BM by laughing and using the mastery emote.

Thanks for reading this guide. I hope I have opened your eyes to truly see the power of my Favourite champion. Just to end it with a bit of comedy, please watch these links <3
