Tips Against Zaahen in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Wafflerush says “Zaahen is, surprisingly, not too scary to deal with if you understand his abilities. He is always going to want to all-in, so I recommend Phase Rush for this matchup as to not get stuck in his forced advances. With enough short winning trades, you can bully him to the point he will stay under turret and utilize his Q for healing. Your Q can be used on a wall, when timed right, to disengage Zaahen's W pull.”

TheMild1 says “His early game is very weak and does not do much. He gets a ton of healing from abilities. Going bramble is very strong. He will out-scale you very hard.”

Dragonlord1022 says “Fleet Bone Plating and Unflinching D Blade → Plated Steelcaps/Swifties → Tri Force You have prio on 1st shove. Then I find the trick to this matchup is playing for q poke before 6 and w proc poke after 6. Be patient with Zaahen when looking to make an ult play on him, his ult makes him unstoppable. - Can play for prio on 1st wave - Be weary of Zaahen E start, don't over commit into poke level 1 - Play safe after first crash onto his tower - After level 3, trades will either consist of your Q poke, or Zaahen initiating with E and/or W - If Zaahen E or W is down and you have E up, you can fish for trades - In mega, be mindful his ult makes him unstoppable - Don't W to start trade if he has ult - Play mind games with ult as needed - Chain CC properly for good burst - Late game is super easy, just don't try to fight him in melee”

Jellybombs says “Zaahen is like Mordekaiser, he gets stronger as the fight goes on, try not to get hit by his E's outter circle during lane and make sure you make short trades instead of long fights”

forlid says “Zaahen has no kill pressure early, and can only take you out if you walk into his auto attacks. Space him with your Q and dodge his W if possible. Zaahen has a quick gap closer with his E -> Q2, so be wary of that. Zaahen is one of the best duelists later in the game and has terrifying teamfight presence. He scales well and kills you with ease after core items. Try to play with your carries and peel them as much as you can and you'll win.”
Saneryus says “Pre-6, gameplan will depend on what rune he takes. HoB? You will lose all trades. Just farm/soak xp till 6. Conquerer? E start. You can obtain priority level 1 and shove cannon wave. Dodge his W (pull) and you'll win. Careful for his E (dash) as he'll mask his 2nd Q (knock up) with his Dash) and catch you off to follow up with his pull. Once 6, just dodge his pull and you can start to bully him. DBlade Start. IF enemy jungler is ad and you think you'll get dove, cloth armor + refill start Flash/TP Standard PTA, MS + HP scaling. Q Max if new. E max once more comfortable. ”
PoEs_tk says “really hard matchup , be always careful of his second Q and never let him stack passive , your biggest opportunity to kill is level 6 with your red pot , ”

zwartebliksem says “Flash + Ignite Zaahen can do both short and extended trades, making it tricky to go in. However, he cannot really out damage you. He will often look for a quick trade with W + Q2, making you unable to trade back. However, his W is very easily dodgeable and his Q2 is quite predictable. Whenever you see Zaahen use his Q, walk back a bit. Once he used his Q2, it will be your window to go in. After 6, try to save your ult for when he ults. This way, you can catch up to him, since his ult has quite a bit of range.”

Hijitori says “2 major issues - his dash making him a mobile target hard to hit with Q and his passive spoiling your R stack potential.”

L0ganJG says “Zaahen does beat Briar in late game 1v1's but Briar wins early game 1v1's. Try to use your better ganking tools and even clear to get an advantage. I like to take short combos and E early vs him. Only fighting and trading on my terms. I never overextend vs this champion, that's what he wants. You can always time your E to put him into a wall right before his revive passive completes. ”
Amothertruckingunicorn says “Despite his unstoppable R he's still an immobile champ that gets eaten alive by slows oblivion orb and liandry. if he's a laner, camping him can be very good. ”

heybeyoo says “Same as xin, you are winning early game but this champ giga outscale you if he gets ahead game is really hard. Throw empowered E and try to block his ultimate.”

MiniBlue says “He'll always search long fights and in duels you're going to struggle, make sure he doesn't stack his passive on both duels and team fights.”
MiniBlue says “Buscara las peleas largas y en duelos te lo hará pasar mal, evita que acumule su pasiva tanto en duelos como en peleas de equipo.”
ScytherKhaZix says “Personally, I’d say this matchup is pretty average. Kha’Zix deals with him very well in early game and early mid game, but if Zaahen manages to hit his powerspike before you do, it’s better not to fight him”

ludenbergangel says “Not worth 1v1ing him unless he's behind or you land your R on him. Try to make him proc his rez near a wall so you can E him into it after he does. Antiheal is nice”
