What to build on Zed?

I tried Zed today today because I heard he was good nowadays. I built youmuu's first, then black cleaver and death's dance (enemy team was in theory pretty squishy). Problem is I did no damage. I looked at my numbers and they were really low, Q did like 420 damage and E maybe 250, I basically wasn't even strong enough to 1v1 a teemo. Poking was kinda useless since my Q would barely tickle people, and ulting always felt like a waste because I just didn't have enough damage to finish anyone off. So, what should I build on Zed if I actually want to do damage?

In order ->>>>

item 3142 > item 3009 or item 3117, item 3156 or item 3074 >item 3071> item 3153> item 3147 OR item 3139 if they are CC heavy.

item 3142 item 3071 item 3074 item 3156 item 3158 item 3147 or item 3153 if you want to splitpush. 45% cdr.

Just build item 3142 , go with armor pen marks and AD quints, i use armor pen marks and quints tho it's much more effective, build item 3147 second and from there go for item 3071 building item 3133 first. Build whatever boots you like, preferably item 3158 because it also affects summoner spells and it helps you hit the cdr cap with the cleaver and the ghostblade. From there build item 3153 and latsly item 3139 . With that I get 531 AD and 58 flat armor pen. This is a lot of damage. Enough to oneshot anyone with less than 110 armor in a blink of an eye. Of course you go for 12/18/0 masteries with precision and thunderlord's decree. If you are winning lane, the moment you get youmu's you will see a huge leap in damage, almost killing them with one combo unless they build seeker's, if so, your full combo will easily do 45%-50% of their hp. After youmu's go for thr item 3134 that you will build into duskblade. If you have any truble with magic damage from your enemy, ditch the duskblade for item 3156 and get the item 3155 asap. If you see that it's a hard lane before you even back for the first time, just get the hexdrinker and from there get the ghostblade and afer that complete your MoM. the hexdrinker alone is enough to get you out of trouble. If you feed them too much, there won't be much you can do anyway so it's better to roam and splitpush...

I have no idea what you did and you had no damage if you built what you said you built...
