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

Quinfrey says “[[Zed]] can be very scary to play against. I place this matchup in major if he has [[Electrocute]] but in even or minor if he has anything else. Zed level 1 only has [[Razor Shuriken]], it's annoying poke alone but we should always outtrade with [[Vault]] + [[Electrocute]]. Level 2 is when he gets [[Living Shadow]], this makes his ability to trade a lot better but he needs all 3 of his abilities to be really scary. So you should still be able to outtrade him, just try to dodge [[razor shuriken]] or at least 1 of the 2 (he throws an extra with his shadow). You should pick your trades now he has all 3 of his abilities. His combo should look something like this: His sends his shadow on top of you and uses all his abilities. Just try to stay away from his [[Living Shadow]] since he can replace it himself and AA you and since the shadow also does damage with [[Shadow Slash]]. The rule is to only trade now when his [[Living Shadow]] is on cooldown. This has a 20 second cooldown level 1 and he upgrades it last. [[Zed]] becomes really scarry when he gets [[Death Mark]], he will be able to almost 1 shot you if he hits all his abilities and if he's not behind. He teleports right behind you when he uses it which makes it so that we go in the direction from where he came from if we [[Vault]]. It's still probably best to do this anyway but keep it in mind. I would just push wave and roam after he reaches lvl 6. But do watch out because [[Zed]] is a great roamer as well. He can throw 2 [[Razor Shuriken]] when he reaches 15 ability haste. This is after boots + a item with ability haste most of the time so be ready to dodge it twice. ”
Ediwarden says “this matchup can sometimes be countered bu just building zhonyas and archangels or some armor. just be super carefull early so he doesnt get a free snowball.”
licetepepe says “when u have good W management this guy wont be much of a trouble after 6 he will play rlly aggresive in this match up u can go for exhaust but i dont recomment it since good zeds will have a plan for scaping if u exhaust and they dont have where to scape its a safe kill i dont recomment exhaust in this match up tho ”
Lynamia says “You are easily outranging Zed but you can't troll any single time.”

twin7zz says “Zed is a "meleee" champion who outscales you and is disguised as a ranged ad mage with an absurd amount of damage. this matchup at similar skill level is almost impossible, you can only win if you are way better player than the person who is playing zed. (I ban this champion 100% of my games), ”
suraahh says “Skill based matchup. After 6, it really comes down to who can do the combo faster. Usually you want HIM to start a fight.”

Soul0fghost says “Evolve Q first, focus on dodging W-E-Q and get an early crash. ”

Amothertruckingunicorn says “Take arcane comet d ring, the barrier technology won't necessarily work against him because his q comes out very quickly and you do not need it. Just bully him. ”

uramakyo says “One of your worst matchups. His R is undodgeable, his shadows bypass your W, and he has enough burst to kill you before Conqueror stacks up. Zhonya's is mandatory and even then it's miserable.”

MiniBlue says “Even if this pick has lost population, his quicker mobility can make you dizzy, play with patience and around structures to catch him.”
giloocore says “Noone plays zed jg. Its free match up you can stun him and he cant even do anything. Also u out scale him and you are stronger early game. You can invade him and fight with him.”

L0ganJG says “This champ will kite you around by hopping to shadows. Generally speaking you want to buffer E into his R for a stun if you get the timing correct. In a world that he isn't ulting you, try to E the Shuriken combo he sets up as this is most of his damage. Fast combos are very good in this matchup”
bob von schlucki says “he also has a good clear so he might outfarm and outganks u and just one shots u. if he falls behind its over tho so it depends on whos bot lane plays safer xd ”

Amothertruckingunicorn says “Ton of blinks but you can make it very hard for him to jump on you+you can always throw your e behind you on his ult if he tries to do it on a bad timer. ”

heybeyoo says “You win 1v1 And on lvl 6 you need to find a good angle and jump with empowered E so he won't be able to use his Ult. If you do this really quick he wont even be able to swap to shadow.”

MiniBlue says “He's still an impressive jungle pick, his quicker mobility can make you dizzy, play with patience and around structures to catch him.”
MiniBlue says “Sigue dando de que hablar esta selección de jungla, su movilidad rápida puede marearte, juega con paciencia y alrededor de estructuras para atraparlo.”
thermaI says “He will run you down and can easily use his dashes to catch you. Definitely play with the team.”
[S16] Renata Jungle Guide by thermaI | Renata Glasc Player
ludenbergangel says “He can pretty easily leave with his W and drop frenzy with his R. If he all-ins you with R, you have to E a little over 2 seconds after he becomes visible again to reduce the damage from it (The damage from his R triggers 3 seconds after he goes out of the untargetable state and your E can be charged up to little over 1 second)”
