amen. that was my escape from akali, everything else took time to learn how to play against, but this teleporting freak might have play him just to learn how to outplay him.
I use Ahri to beat zed they always ult you when you are low just charm their R now counter play even with the W trick if done right and just kite him with R and same with alkali just charm her R or E and she lost that
im already a subscriber, but if you do a guide to qiyana jungle (it works now, clear frontier video coming soon), ill make all my kids subscribe too. ill force them, which is something i can do b/c im their dad
K, really important thing you missed: What to skill lvl 2 is more deep than that. You can't always take E level two. Against ranged matchups (or if you get the push early game) W is infinitely better than E, considering you'll NEVER get an E off on a ranged champion without W anyway, and W can easily save your life if you're pushed up and get cheese ganked.
I've almost never taken w level 2. Vs. mages, more than likely will get wave shoved under turrent so e is better as a farming tool. Vs. fighters(yasuo, irelia, etc.) e is good for when they jump on you. pre level 4 zed shouldn't be playing aggressively. If you play e level 2, you will be setting yourself up better for when you have all 3 skills.
@@prasharanasinghe3344 Zed should be playing aggressively from level 1, upping it at level 3. shuriken on such a short cooldown is too good and does too much damage not to use. Health is a resource and against most champions you won't be shoved under tower, meaning it is worth it to take a small amount of poke (which you can always rebute) for the push and the CS. If you can hit a double shuriken on a champion at level two as well, you're basically set for the rest of the lane should you not misplay. Again, you're never getting E on someone who's ranged without W anyway, and you're RARELY going to need E for killing minions anyway. Zed has a super easy time clearing waves under tower just with passive. As much as E is good for PUSHING the wave, considering you should already be aggressive at level two, W is fine. W offers complete safety from early ganks as well as potential for double Q-ing. ZED99 does it himself. He does take E 2nd most of the time, but the odd game where he feels that W offers more, he doesn't shy away from it.
@@isak2209 Dude the one example you gave follows my philosophy. He takes e second unless he really sees w as an option. Zed shouldn't be playing aggro from the start. Zed is a combo based assasin. Any mage will outrage and out poke Zed in early levels. Have fun trying to play aggressive level 2 vs a wind shitter. The reason in most situations zed takes 3 potions is to make up for zed's weak early game. This is balancing, and what gives other champions flexibility in terms of killing zed. If zed was strong from level one we definitely would have seen nerfs already.
@@adamzeggai5506 go to the Zed mains sub reddit there's all the information you could possibly want to know with detailed explanations like, the kitting combo:)
Also: Diving a target with minions under the turret works best by ulting them, waiting and using everything just before the ult explodes. Resulting in only a single turret shot taken if done correctly.
SkillCapped I think its good if you make a playlist for these kind of specific champion guides you make in the playlists section, awesome guide thank you!
Nice video. Let me just remind you that, if you hit enemy with your E your culdown on W will decrease for (idk smoe) sec., and if you hit more than 2 enemys with your E you will almost instantly get your W back :)
Neat combos, I thought I knew it all. He's a hard champ to master, but that just makes him more fun. I like champs that are more technical and require more skill. It just feels more rewarding when you win.
You should definitely try riven with auto resets then she’s extremely enjoyable, lee sin probably has the hardest combos in the game but as someone who played him for a long time trust me you won’t be needing them 99% of the time, meanwhile riven’s combos are actually extremely important for her gameplay
Well explained guides from knowledgeable players ? Is this really a League of Legends video o.O ? Great video guys. I would love to see some macro and playstyle tips for this kind of video and maybe some advice on tough matchups for it to deserve the title "ultimate guide".
My biggest problem with trying to get good with him is that he gets banned at least 50% of the time and im never able to rack up the experience i need to be good with him
As a Zed main, you should've definitely talked about Zhonias and how to play against it, it's your main counter and every champ uses it differently, and it's very cheap too
@@ahmedbeast5663 zhonyas is 3.5 and you ult es 4s, so try not to use your w for engage but for disengage, W is your most important skill, wait until zhonyas is down and burst em Lethality should be enough to kill an just-zhonyas mage, I prefer Draktharr due to the high slow autoattack, but the others give you good burst because of their accumulated damage (Drakkthar only gives you cd for every item) On tfs, try to ult the frontline and scare and bait backline's zhonyas and stun, you can't fight tfs so just bait em and wait until you can lasthit the remains
The situation at 6:00 although clutch and the correct idea in the moment... I feel it should be ideally avoided...no vision side lane farming should just be with auto's, q, and e...throwing out a w,e,q to farm minions without vision on enemy obviously robs you of your champs only escape and you get 5 man collapsed...I wouldn't mind w,e,q ing the wave as much if baron is spawning soon or we have vision on enemy in order to create bot pressure....a better wave to w,e,q the wave while also staying safe in that situation would be to w1 behind yourself near base and e,q,w2 back to safety
I'm kinda surprised that you didn't recommend Laceration's crit build, it's braindead enough to kill an adc with one auto attack and it also has a higher damage output on a combo and better late game than normal lethality build
took me 1m points to have confidence like literally WALKING ANYWHERE ON THE MAP in my mind:who is the unlucky one I will meet WALK UP IN MOST MATCHUPS to assert domination and plant fear usually succeed to the point everyone has zhonya even adcs jhin first item vs zed : frozen heart this season is good for zed
Play like a Zed main and gain 20 deaths and 20 kills at the price of your teammates yelling every 5s and an ENEMY SHOUTING SLURS IN CHAT WITH A "Why tf is ZED OP".
Every mid matchup is decent for zed unless someone goes out of their way to counter pick a bruiser against you. Of the actual mid laners sylas ,ekko, kata and fizz are the most difficult but are all winnable. They are difficult because they can easily dodge your skill shots during a all in while there's are very hard to avoid. To win the lane freeze next to ur turret and just poke from a distance while safely csing.
@@epic1053 I'm agree with you , but sorry, kata isn't a hard matchup for zed, the only way she can kill you is if you disrespect her lvl 2, after if you know she can dash you can kill her so easily.... i think zed's ult is just better than kata's ult in a 1 v 1....
@@RockzShadow @epic 10 idk about you guys but I’m a d3 zed one trick. Would still love to hear how he deals with champs he considers the hardest. I feel like certain assassin matchups are favored for zed until he messes up. And the second you do that, it’s lost. Kata isn’t too bad. Mostly just have to play safe for the first few levels and deny farm when her q is down and you still have shadow. I watch a lot of zed99 too and really like going conqueror into harder matchups
the combo part in this video was insanly useful to clear up how zed will act as non midlaner ppl obf lag a ton of matchup understanding would be nice if you can make it for every assassin in the game ^^
Zed actually has his first power spike at lvl 3 when he can start to pressure the enemy laner and roam to help with team. Electrocute is majority optimal rune for Zed (can go DH if you know you can optimize stacks) and no reason to bring Conq since Zed isn't going to be skirmishing with bruiser/tanks. Sudden impact is more optimal on Zed since he uses blinks to help him one shot enemies especially with R. No need for Ultimate hunter since most games you will go Duskblade to give you enough cdr so instead you would go Ravenous hunter for omnivamp since when you go in for combos it will help you stay healthy from damage. Secondary the optimal rune tree is Precision for Triumph to keep you healthy after takedowns to go back in and Coup De Grace to increase your damage on R with low cdr to get R back up very often. Only reason to go Sorcery second is if enemy team is majority AP for Nullifying Orb to deny AP damage and Transcendence for more cdr. Optimal build is Duskblade (majority squish enemy team) for maximum cdr so you can one shot someone then reset to combo another but if enemy team is has bruiser/tanks then you would go Eclipse for armor pen then build accordingly to their team for maximum damage.
do yall think kitch bane would be good on zed i mean if he can half life a carry with his ult he can do massive dmg as magical dmg with his next auto after his combo
I know what you mean by asking, ¨is it that bad?¨, As a Zed One trick, I dont usually build hydra, I ALWAYS build hydra after mythic. And very often people will question me why I build hydra, often when I get beef with other players or other zed mains, the first thing they always do is ping my hydra. In this comment I will explain why Hydra is utterly perfect on zed, first off, 65 AD is the best any ad ithem gives (except IE, but zed cant build it) It may not give lethality or armor pen, but tbh depending on most matchups, zed doesnt need that much early. it gives 20 AH wich is very good early, it gives 10% omnivamp (perfect since zed doesnt have sustain) And since the rework now hydra cleaves on abilities aswell. All explained, an utterly perfect ithem for an ad caster like zed. another con is that building hydra is very easy and comfortable, when vs poke lane just start scepter, if not then hammer. both ithem can be build into other zed ithems aswell incase u need to change. Short explained: a perfect ithem on Zed, like i said, zed OTP 1.4+ million master plat 2. ive played zed enough to atleast understand the champ, Hydra is a perfect ithem on zed, Ofc i wont spend my time explaining to silvers and non zed players why hydra is perfect on zed, But when they ask my why i get hydra on zed the simplest thing i just do is: ask them wich option would be better than hydra, (answer to it) none :) except if ur playing full squishy team and ur playing vs a veigar on midlane. only then maybe another ithem might be better. but in 90% of the cases, hydra after mythic (and boots) is the perfect choice.
And btw, if you already play Hydra on zed, let me recom u a build on zed thats really strong and works in almost all situations. (similair 2 laceration) RUNES: Qonqueror - Triumph - (Optional) - Last stand, SECOND RUNE: (optional) but i preffer taking as much damage as possible because i will build tanky through the game, but you need that early damage. and last 2x addaptive force 1x optional. now thats for the runes. Before i give u the build i will first explain the playstyle as its importand to understand the build and ur runes. This build on zed is complete bruiser, focusing on CDR, sustain, And moderate damage aswell as tankiness. Zed doesn have any sustain himself so heĺ need to get it from ithems, eventually get 120+ AH wich will be around 55-60% CDR so u can spam ur shit like in urf (Note: zed W passive gives u Energy back when hitting multiple ability on same target) wich needs a little skill tho. together with that sustain from conqueror and ithems you will get tons of heals while keep spamming those abilityś . another con zed has with this build that other ad caster dont have is that zed doesnt need to actually build that tanky to become hard to kill, 1/2 half tank ithems is easily enough because zed is so mobile he can dodge most of the damage. This build isnt that strong early but you will scale pretty quickly already after ur first ithem and it only goes better from there. BUILD: 1 Goredrinker - 2+3 Hydra/boots(optional) - 4 Spirit/randium( if vs 2/+ AP go spirit to get those insane sustain. if vs 3+ ad go randium, con for randium is that u allways perfectly hit that active after R) - 5 Steraks - 6 Optional( if vs much mobility get seryldra, if vs slower oponents get black cleaver. Btw note that goredrinker insta gives u a bonus hit to activate conqueror making is already really good even early(it can also be used simutaniusly with E + auto). Hydra is actually ur core ithem giving u some of everything u need. Boots (no need to explain) Spirit/randium here comes ur only real tank ithem to make u very hard to kill + both ithems gives u and extra like bonus sustain for spirit + AH, Steraks truly makes zed unkillable, with these 2 tank ithems, zed can never be assasinated unless chain ccd in team fights. meaning he will allways be able to escape or continue his combo. now the last ithem is just to complete zed for late game. extra damage focused on armor pen + 20 AH to give him even more spammability. You should try this build if ur skilled with zed, garanteed 100% most damage everygame. another importand note btw, is that depended on situation, I take teleport on zed now, factors for why: With this build, i dont rely on early kills as now im the scaler. if i step into midgame with 0 kills but more enough cs, then its already midlane won. If i take tp on zed then i dont need much off combat mobility giving me more freedom to build other stats. If i take teleport then it often gives my toplaner the freedom to take ignite helping him to win his lane ( ofc its situational). And you can double roam sometimes ( example, shove mid wave, roam top then insta tp bot). and thats basically how i always be usefull with zed.
I have question about build. Can I go crit Zed with prowlers claw? I use that a lot with conqueror, domination runes. It's actually working I don't know is that cause I'm gold or cause its good. Thanks for response.
Ryze guide Ryze guide Ryze guide PLEASE. He's so underutilized in soloq, and with phase rush nerf coming next patch we need this. There is not much ryze content out there, despite him having a higher pickrate than syndra and veigar. BIG UPS FOR RYZE GUIDE
My WEQ combo doesnt work: I use my W and while the shadow is travelling I use my E. But when i do it my shadow doesnt do the E. I do the combo but only I do the E, not the shadow
i would really like to se a similar guide for warwick becose i think he is a low elo hiden op champ, he have a lot of diferent builds for the diferent game states, if you could sumary all it could be amazing
Ill be honest i played zed s8 s9 s10 it was good but this new season I feel like his weak and can t do much against this new champions with much dashes like qiyana samira yone irelia...
This guide is so misleading, You should not use the first combo with straight up R for all in, it really depends on the matchup, ahri was so bad as an example since u need to care for her charm etc. Level 3 is such a bad powerspike for zed, lvl 4 is when zed can actually win a trade, since his dmg on q lvl 1 is bad. If this is an ultimate guide you should show how to play lane most of the time, since all of the new zed players struggle in matchups, vs akali, yasuo or any matchup, also you should not target someone else when u use R for shadow placement, some games u need to optimize your dmg, you can t use the same combos every game. Using E after ult is only good if u have W down since it resets the cd by 2 sec for every enemy hit. Also when fighting a bruiser, u actually don t have enough dmg since bruiser items are far more better than assassin ones, when u kite a bruiser, you should sneak an auto everytime u swap and proc your passive. Another thing, you should talk how to play with each runepage, you cannot play the same. Electro and Conq have very different playstyles. I noticed u ran Cleanse in a clip. Cleanse works just in extreme scenarios, Zed is very dependent on ignite. There is not a build you can run everygame, unless u are in low elo. Eclipse works when they have atleast 2 tanks, or u have an incredibly bad matchup. Prowler's is the best mythic in my opinion but you should play some games till do it in ranked. Proguides is a good platform, to form your knowledge about the game, but when it comes to an in depth guide it s so pathetic.
Yea ur right, it's a pretty nice beginner guide but I'm sure the "indepth" and "ultimate" are just used to earn clicks. (btw ur in deathmasters discord right)
1) Dodge shurikens (focus on dodging Zed's shuriken, not his shadow one) 2) Punish him hard if he waste his W to farm or miss and especially if he used W (shadow)+Q on the wave. His W cooldown is HUGE eary game. You can also bait the shadow to help having nice windows to punish him. 3) Don't be scared of trading back even if he chunked you a bit, he has everything on CD for a few seconds, so use them).

In this comment I will explain why Hydra is utterly perfect on zed, first off, 65 AD is the best any ad ithem gives (except IE, but zed cant build it) It may not give lethality or armor pen, but tbh depending on most matchups, zed doesnt need that much early. it gives 20 AH wich is very good early, it gives 10% omnivamp (perfect since zed doesnt have sustain) And since the rework now hydra cleaves on abilities aswell. All explained, an utterly perfect ithem for an ad caster like zed. another con is that building hydra is very easy and comfortable, when vs poke lane just start scepter, if not then hammer. both ithem can be build into other zed ithems aswell incase u need to change. Short explained: a perfect ithem on Zed, like i said, zed OTP 1.4+ million master plat 2. ive played zed enough to atleast understand the champ, Hydra is a perfect ithem on zed, Ofc i wont spend my time explaining to silvers and non zed players why hydra is perfect on zed, But when they ask my why i get hydra on zed the simplest thing i just do is: ask them wich option would be better than hydra, (answer to it) none :) except if ur playing full squishy team and ur playing vs a veigar on midlane. only then maybe another ithem might be better. but in 90% of the cases, hydra after mythic (and boots) is the perfect choice.
And btw, if you already play Hydra on zed, let me recom u a build on zed thats really strong and works in almost all situations. (similair 2 laceration) RUNES: Qonqueror - Triumph - (Optional) - Last stand, SECOND RUNE: (optional) but i preffer taking as much damage as possible because i will build tanky through the game, but you need that early damage. and last 2x addaptive force 1x optional. now thats for the runes. Before i give u the build i will first explain the playstyle as its importand to understand the build and ur runes. This build on zed is complete bruiser, focusing on CDR, sustain, And moderate damage aswell as tankiness. Zed doesn have any sustain himself so heĺ need to get it from ithems, eventually get 120+ AH wich will be around 55-60% CDR so u can spam ur shit like in urf (Note: zed W passive gives u Energy back when hitting multiple ability on same target) wich needs a little skill tho. together with that sustain from conqueror and ithems you will get tons of heals while keep spamming those abilityś . another con zed has with this build that other ad caster dont have is that zed doesnt need to actually build that tanky to become hard to kill, 1/2 half tank ithems is easily enough because zed is so mobile he can dodge most of the damage. This build isnt that strong early but you will scale pretty quickly already after ur first ithem and it only goes better from there. BUILD: 1 Goredrinker - 2+3 Hydra/boots(optional) - 4 Spirit/randium( if vs 2/+ AP go spirit to get those insane sustain. if vs 3+ ad go randium, con for randium is that u allways perfectly hit that active after R) - 5 Steraks - 6 Optional( if vs much mobility get seryldra, if vs slower oponents get black cleaver. Btw note that goredrinker insta gives u a bonus hit to activate conqueror making is already really good even early(it can also be used simutaniusly with E + auto). Hydra is actually ur core ithem giving u some of everything u need. Boots (no need to explain) Spirit/randium here comes ur only real tank ithem to make u very hard to kill + both ithems gives u and extra like bonus sustain for spirit + AH, Steraks truly makes zed unkillable, with these 2 tank ithems, zed can never be assasinated unless chain ccd in team fights. meaning he will allways be able to escape or continue his combo. now the last ithem is just to complete zed for late game. extra damage focused on armor pen + 20 AH to give him even more spammability. You should try this build if ur skilled with zed, garanteed 100% most damage everygame. another importand note btw, is that depended on situation, I take teleport on zed now, factors for why: With this build, i dont rely on early kills as now im the scaler. if i step into midgame with 0 kills but more enough cs, then its already midlane won. If i take tp on zed then i dont need much off combat mobility giving me more freedom to build other stats. If i take teleport then it often gives my toplaner the freedom to take ignite helping him to win his lane ( ofc its situational). And you can double roam sometimes ( example, shove mid wave, roam top then insta tp bot). and thats basically how i always be usefull with zed.
I have question about build. Can I go crit Zed with prowlers claw? I use that a lot with conqueror, domination runes. It's actually working
I don't know is that cause I'm gold or cause its good. Thanks for response.
I wod love to see a vid like this but With Qiyanna but good vid
Idk how a pretty simple champ can have so much outplay potential
Tnx very useful
Thx for the video, you get + 1 sub
This guy is crazy impressive
Nice video Mr McBaze
my small sett main brain cant handle this
Could include some zed macro like splitpushing
At the runes builds and skill orders dosent it variy depending on who you face? for example yas dont you max e first on zed?
the best scaling assassin is evelyn in my opinion, she's ap assassin but you just can't build MR against her
I have a galaxy slayer zed and really want to use it so i watch this video
best scaling assassin, ya right. there's Katarina, Akali etc. besides kassadin u know
Thank you so much for this guide! I just got a legendary skin for zed and i realy wanted to main him, i just love scaling asassins.
It’s funny I’m a zed main but I’m trash at league so ty for this
Ryze guide Ryze guide Ryze guide PLEASE. He's so underutilized in soloq, and with phase rush nerf coming next patch we need this. There is not much ryze content out there, despite him having a higher pickrate than syndra and veigar. BIG UPS FOR RYZE GUIDE
The best Ryze guide is to just pick a better champion. Champ is dead and requires very specific conditions in order to succeed.
There's brightside in life when you know how to play zed
My zed is atrocious time to watch this on repeat
i am a emerald zed in wildrift but i suck at league. i cant even land a simple weq on league, why?
Oh great, now people will keep picking Zed and I won't get to play my main. Thanks Skill Capped :D
My WEQ combo doesnt work: I use my W and while the shadow is travelling I use my E. But when i do it my shadow doesnt do the E. I do the combo but only I do the E, not the shadow
i would really like to se a similar guide for warwick becose i think he is a low elo hiden op champ, he have a lot of diferent builds for the diferent game states, if you could sumary all it could be amazing
It’s not hidden lmao. Everyone knows he’s op
Great. I have had 3 1st time zeds in a row on my team >
literally nobody:
SkillCapped: Zed is the best scaling assasin!
Thank you so much for making this video! I'm a zed main trying to climb and this helped me out :3
If you really are a Zed main then you would know the mistakes in this video.
Ill be honest i played zed s8 s9 s10 it was good but this new season I feel like his weak and can t do much against this new champions with much dashes like qiyana samira yone irelia...
I get excited when these notifications come in!
how about Victor next :))
This guide is so misleading, You should not use the first combo with straight up R for all in, it really depends on the matchup, ahri was so bad as an example since u need to care for her charm etc. Level 3 is such a bad powerspike for zed, lvl 4 is when zed can actually win a trade, since his dmg on q lvl 1 is bad. If this is an ultimate guide you should show how to play lane most of the time, since all of the new zed players struggle in matchups, vs akali, yasuo or any matchup, also you should not target someone else when u use R for shadow placement, some games u need to optimize your dmg, you can t use the same combos every game. Using E after ult is only good if u have W down since it resets the cd by 2 sec for every enemy hit. Also when fighting a bruiser, u actually don t have enough dmg since bruiser items are far more better than assassin ones, when u kite a bruiser, you should sneak an auto everytime u swap and proc your passive.
Another thing, you should talk how to play with each runepage, you cannot play the same. Electro and Conq have very different playstyles.
I noticed u ran Cleanse in a clip. Cleanse works just in extreme scenarios, Zed is very dependent on ignite.
There is not a build you can run everygame, unless u are in low elo. Eclipse works when they have atleast 2 tanks, or u have an incredibly bad matchup. Prowler's is the best mythic in my opinion but you should play some games till do it in ranked.
Proguides is a good platform, to form your knowledge about the game, but when it comes to an in depth guide it s so pathetic.
Yea ur right, it's a pretty nice beginner guide but I'm sure the "indepth" and "ultimate" are just used to earn clicks. (btw ur in deathmasters discord right)
@@user-tt8ln8fm8s ty for ur reaponse, yes I am
4:57 "created distance between HIM and ME" not "HIM and I" >:O
I'm still watching hoping that it will help me counter zed.
They did a "how to counter zed" guide
1) Dodge shurikens (focus on dodging Zed's shuriken, not his shadow one)
2) Punish him hard if he waste his W to farm or miss and especially if he used W (shadow)+Q on the wave. His W cooldown is HUGE eary game.
You can also bait the shadow to help having nice windows to punish him.
3) Don't be scared of trading back even if he chunked you a bit, he has everything on CD for a few seconds, so use them).
2:20 - Yes. Simple. Easy. 100%
Y’all just had to make a guide on one of the most obnoxious assassins didn’t you...
gold...
Now now don't call my boi obnoxious ya all been f###ing him up alot with zhonyas these past seasons
@@slayerzed69 consider also that Zhonya’s is literally the only item that gives AP and armor at the same time.
Fuck Zed.
Let the play play out in normal speed first... Some of those clips you try to show are only in slow motion or sped up. Big mistake
Also skillcapped made a video lasr year on how to stomp zed
Ultimate Jhin guide pls
not me watching this as i go into a game LOL
good guide m
You either carry the teamfight or int extremely hard in it lol
If you cant beat them, join them
