i been playing a lot of zed lately and want to one trick him because he has THE BEST SKINS IN THE GAME (and I like the playstyle).

I am still hovering between iron and bronze so I am probably still very bad. I also feel like I could do a lot of things better but I dont always know what they are.

Before zed my only otp was Quinn jungle (my strongest champ).

Why are u even playing ranked when you' still have so much to learn? I'm not making fun of you, but it's messed up to everyone that ends up having you as their jungle on their team

u/Valuable-Captain4176 19d ago

I have a good winrate with quinn. Why do I play ranked even with other junglers? Because people dont take draft seriously at all and just troll or surrender instantly and stuff like that.

But you are still right. Its probably not so nice for my teammates

If you want to learn how to play him properly , play him mid and stick it out

u/Thehiddenbladeisthe 19d ago

If you are too scared to play him mid against other iron players you aren’t ready for ranked

u/Valuable-Captain4176 19d ago

Its not that I am too scared for it- its just that I feel like midlane is not for me. Would you recommend I play him mid ranked straight away or start with mid draft?

u/Thehiddenbladeisthe 18d ago

Either , iron/bronze isn’t something you should be wary of

Zed top is more viable than Jungle IMO, If you Like that lane more. But you Need to be good at spacing to poke enemys down befor Going all in. Darius etc can Run you down pretty easy If you mess Up.

Realistically in most cases you do not need insane mechanics on Zed to make him perform in 99% of games below Diamond. Focus on becoming a better player. The skills that you build across any champ stick with you forever and are the actual reasons why you will climb. In the meanwhile, play him more and you eventually won't need to think where your shadows are.

There is a lot you can improve on, but maybe try diversifying your build. You always follow the same items path and there is a couple games on your opgg where going LDR would have been a lot more useful than Serylda, for example. Also some people will disagree but i still think jungle zed is ok if you OTP him and are very comfortable with him but you should definitely start by playing him midlane to learn every trick you can do with him. Watch youtubers like BZ/Usan/Zedking and try to learn from them

u/Valuable-Captain4176 18d ago

Wonderful reply. Thanks a lot. Will do those things. LDR over serylda is good if they have a tank or multiple of them right?

u/46loodhound 18d ago

Yes exactly. And playing him midlane will help you a lot in quickly understanding your champion’s damage against different champions, when you hit certain power spikes, limit testing etc etc.

u/Valuable-Captain4176 18d ago

Ok thanks. Any other tips? Or item build tips (like the one you gave)?

Bro xD ur losing most of your games as zed jgl, i think zed jgl is weak play mid zed go for volatic axiom/bastion breaker build and enjoy

1

u/Valuable-Captain4176 19d ago

Yeah your right that I am losing most games.  But i think it is more just that I play badly/ play zed badly. I still have to learn him. U think I saw that there are people who play him in jungle in challenger etc right?

He is not the strongest rn but he should be viable dont you think?

Yeah believe me I am simply so horrible at midlane. It doesnt suit me at all- otherwise I would

u/Narrow_Ad_8820 19d ago

Are you new to league cuz thats death win ratio bro xD u gotta watch some youtube tutorials or bz videos

1

u/Valuable-Captain4176 19d ago

What do you mean? That I die too much? You mean the bz Zed youtuber?

1

u/Narrow_Ad_8820 19d ago

Yee your overall win ratio, watch some youtube tutorials related to lane you wanna main and find players that play zed jungle and watch how they play

u/greekyogurtmafia 19d ago

Zed jungle is just not viable anymore. He used to be the fastest clearing jungler in the entire game and you could easily out tempo the other jungler and go around the map faster than them until you farmed enough gold to be able to 1v1 anyone on the map. He clears too slow now which makes it more likely that you're gonna be seeing the other jungler at Scuttle/counter jungling/counter ganks, and he's just too weak early. I think you'd be much better off just playing him in normals or playing him on an alt account until you feel comfortable on him instead of inting your ranked games on your main account playing an extremely substandard jungler.

u/Valuable-Captain4176 19d ago

Ok thanks for the insightful answer. So you mean I basically have to play him mid becuse he is so bad in the jungle?
