Tips Against Zed in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Kyle007 says “Stay on high health to prevent [[Contempt for the Weak]] to deal additional Damage. [[Razor Shuriken]] doesn't do much damage but if he casts [[Living Shadow]] and Hit's both [[Razor Shuriken]] he will deal additional damage so try to dodge at least 1. When he engages with [[Death Mark]] he will appear behind you, this predictability makes it easy to hit him with [[Flash Frost]].”

Marex_je_u_bushu says “One of the easiest matchups. All you need to do is W his engage and he legit have 0 damage. If he ults you wait for him to land then W ( he will waste his Q and you win later). You can take any rune but i prefer CONQ. You can take electrocute if rest of the team is squishy. Take doran blade or long sword with 3 potions.”

Tofu Dubu says “- Free matchup, there is nothing he can do, even a good zed, grasp/manaflow, tear, abuse him, exhaust good but i prefer tp since it's really free matchup. - You outsustain him, so just abuse pre-level 6”

tspeach says “Early on, avoid his poke by staying behind minions, especially levels 1–2. At level 3, you can look for trades when his W is down; if he misses his Q or uses W aggressively, punish him. Post-6, bait out his R or force him to use it defensively. Your burst can match his, but only if you combo cleanly and don’t let him get the jump. Edge of Night is a solid pickup to block his poke or ult follow-up. If he plays safe, roam hard—Zed doesn’t match your map pressure.”

yJustSad says “if Zed tries to ult you, you can just try to cover all his existing shadows with your ultimate and he will die. He also hard loses pre lv 6”

22automail says “Super easy matchup, you beat him pre and post 6. Trade with him early with W level 1 and look for kills level 3. At level 6 if he engages with ult, dont attack him and just instantly ult him away, that way he cant hit you with his ult proc and if he goes back to his shadow (outside your ult) youll dodge all the damage. If zed ults you and you auto then ult he will just kill you. ”

KomariLoL says “Don't get poked down by his Q's and you should be good. (they are wind wallable) Play around his W cooldown. Zed will ALWAYS spawn behind you after he ults (unless he has a W shadow out already), so throw your abilities out behind you after he ults. Matchup only becomes tricky if he has Conqueror with Ignite. If he does, be careful not to take that long of trades in the wave because he call kill you if he stacks Conqueror. Sometimes if you have Q3 up (tornado) its better to just hold it rather than throw it at him because if you use it he can dodge it with R on you, and then it becomes an unfavorable position for you. Hold it so if he R's you can knock him up by throwing nado behind you.”

Tips Against Zed in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Ejsner says “Dealing with Zed can be challenging, especially considering his ability to dodge your damage with his ultimate, which is quite potent. Ensure you prioritize armor and play for healing during fights to withstand his burst. Fortunately, Zeds in the jungle typically won't run Ignite, which alleviates some pressure. Given Zed's elusiveness, it might be more effective to play for a root if your team is nearby, preventing him from freely teleporting between shadows. Familiarize yourself with how his ultimate positioning works, as you can land some clever roots directly out of his R that he can't react to. Additionally, be mindful of the long range of his W, as he'll likely save the swap until you use your empowered E ability. Keep this ability on standby until he's forced to swap, allowing you to capitalize on his movement for a root and potential kill.”
Crescent Strike says “He can counter your R and he is very mobile making him always better at ganking early and mid game. He has high burst also. Ban him if you feel you can't match him.”

Reprobatus says “He farms slow and has trouble taking objectives. Hard to solo kill against his high mobility but can be done. Look for some early [[armor]]. Requires high gold income though to get going. Save your (R) [[stand united]] to use on targets that he (R) [[Death Mark]]. ”

Crow7420 says “His clear is faster but he has no map presence until lvl6 and by then your close to getting your form anyway. Terrible ganks and objective control.”
kittygore says “You can oneshot him unless he uses his shadow to jump away (he will dodge all your damage). But you also can oneshot him. Try to wait in a bush to kill him.”
Kema says “It's difficult to w him + he can oneshot you. He forces you to build zhonya which sucks.”
DuoShaco says “Zed can evade Shaco’s traps and burst him down quickly Counter: Use your stealth effectively and try to catch them off-guard. Build defensive items like Guardian Angel or stopwatch to survive their burst.”
Jackiewawa says “Meme pick. Dodge his Qs with your E. Save W to dodge W + Q combo or all ins. Can buy Zhonyas if he's really fed to immune R.”
Geryyy says “Zed is just another thing to worry about, he can chase u very well, and escape/ steal jungle monsters”

Neekster says “This champion clears the same time as you. Zed is a very strong jungler, with his mobility and high damage output. He is going to be pretty hard to catch when he knows how to place his shadows properly. You would probably want to get ahead from him by full clearing and frequent ganking.”
