Well in Zed's case you just spam until you get lucky. Your shurikens have no cost so it doesn't actually matter if they miss, just spam them every time they're off cooldown.

For skillshots on skill champions, you're looking for a moment where you can predict where the enemy is going to move and put them into a lose/lose situation. In a lane, this is most commonly when an enemy goes to cs. Later in the game, pressure created by allies or your nonskillshot abilities or other situational things can often force an opponent to choose fight or flight, and that makes the rest of their choices predictable.

I also find different players have different mindsets and usually patterns to how they play. Some are defensive, some bait, others attack straight at you, and some zig zag and then attack you. Learn your opponents basic play patterns and you'll be able to predict how they're going to move better.
