What keystone should support zilean get?

Warlord's bloodlust- Obvious reasons Fervour of battle-Obvious reasons Deathfire Touch-Very low AP build,only 1(2) damage spells,both unreliable Stormraider's surge-Zilean is already moving at Sanic speed,but still doesnt build enough so for his 1(2) unreliable spells to do much damage. Thunderlord's Degree- requires 2 autoattacks and 1 bomb/3 autoattacks/2 delayed bombs and autoattack to proc,he barely builds so anyway. Windspeaker's blessing-his only heal/shield is his Ult,that can sometimes not prove at all. Grasp of the undying-Very squishy champion overall,lack of hp build Courage of the Colossus-busted,but probably no one will focus Zilean,he doesn't build tanks,and his only hard CC is unreliable. Bond of Stone-Zilean isn't tanky for shit Conclusion-Zilean doesn't really work well with any of the keystones,but the only worth options are Bond of stone and Thunderlord

Stormraider's can be hilarious with him; if you build for AP and you can land his combo it chunks for quite a good amount of Health. The already slippery Zilean just got even slipprier.

Thunderlordss is probably the best option. Whenever I play Support Zilean I usually build item 3092 item 2045 item 3158 item 3060 item 3116 item 3089 , so I usually get quite a bit of AP in my build, simply because none of the other support items syndergise extremely well with Zilean.

I would think tlords. Hitting the double bomb could mean a kill with it depending on the adc.

That tree also seems like the best for him. The extra flat lethality and magic pen or 5% cdr is better than the other options in my opinion

Speaking as someone who used to main Zilean, Thunderlords decree is easily the best keystone supplementing his burst really well. The amount of damage zilean can do by landing 2 bombs on top of someone is very high even as a support. He scales well with levels and doesn't need too much AP to thrive.

If you get fed, you can almost kill with just 2 bombs. :P
