Who this champion beats in lane, and who beats it.Who counters Zed and who Zed beats
Zed looks scary, but his whole plan is fragile. He has no hard crowd control and no shield, only a slow on Shadow Slash and the mobility of his Living Shadow, so to do his damage he has to actually commit Death Mark and stand next to you for the mark to detonate. That commitment is his weakness: a mage with a reliable stun, root, or knock up can lock him down the instant he jumps in, before his bomb ever goes off. The cleanest answers either out range his shuriken poke so he never gets free harass, or punish his all in with point and click crowd control he cannot dodge with his shadow. Reliable lockdown, a way to survive the initial burst, and tools that catch him mid dive all make his life miserable. When you pick into Zed, the question is simple: can you hold him still the moment he lands on you.
