zed maximum damage R?

Smash your head on to your keyboard.

The best way to maximize your damage would be landing 3 Qs on your target.

W -> R -> E -> AA -> W -> Q -> (Flash -> AA -> Ignite) -> R.

Done correctly, very few can survive this combo. Let's do some math to prove it. Assume that Zed is lvl 6 with 3 points in his Q, and one point in W, E and R. (Not accounting items / runes / masteries)

Zed single Q damage: 140. Zed followup Q damage: 105 Zed AD: 68 Zed E damage: 65 Death Mark pop damage: 25%

Triple Q damage (all first hit): 350 E damage: 65 2 AAs + passive proc: 136 + 6% max health Death Mark Pop = 137.75 + 25% of 6% of their max health. Ignite: 34 damage every second for 5 seconds (170 max)

In total, that is 688.25 physical damage + 6% max health magic damage + 170 true damage over 5 seconds.

Hit all your spells with both shadows from W and R, land an auto and don't forget to use your potential botrk/hydra. If I'm not mistaken yeah there's nothing special.

EDIT: Oh and auto while E too. I think you can. So R > Auto+E - dunno by which you should start tho > Q > Auto - enemy will probably be under 50% HP if not active Item then auto. and that's it ?

Hey dude, I recently started playing Zed, like a week ago and already have level 6 masteries on him. So here is what I've figured out on him.

1. You need to do some damage before you go in for ultimate (when you are initial level).
2. Try not going in with your W, Use your W during the ultimate to do more damage and a means to escape.
3. When you reappear after you ult, you need to make sure you get your E and Q right! If you miss your E and Q, you will not do much damage from your ultimately alone. But if you land your Q and E right, that should bring the enemy to approx. 20-25% of HP and your ultimate will do the rest.

Against Yasuo, if you must ult, Ult when he has recently used his windwall and keep track of your minions, your best time to make a move is when he has used his E on all or most minions (less mobility and escape route). Damage him a lot with your W+Q+E+E combo.

Against Fizz, do not ult him when you know he has E (Where he jumps on his trident and becomes untargetable). You wanna Ult him right when he has landed back from his E. You ult him and throw a shadow at a safe distance with your W to dodge him Q. Once you have done that then its pretty basic, target him with you Q and E.

Your damage also depends on your items, you want to buy all the lethality items for him. Youmuu's Ghostblade , Duskblade of Draktharr and edge of night . Consider them to be must haves to do insane damage unless your are building Zed critical chance... which I have never tried. Then go with The Black Cleaver and Ravenous Hydra or Bloodthirster for some defense. I like to buy boots of mobility for insane movement speed. Let me know if you have some other build for him that I can try.
