Wrong, zilean never lands a bomb.
Or if he does, it's on his own teammate who is running away from the enemy team or otherwise not engaging them.
Someone call?
Teach me the ways of Zillean.
Seriously, the rework has me going like "Do I even build AP"?

You want some AP, but due to the badly scaling damage on his bombs. Don't stack it like your the AP carry. Get items that give team utility with some AP on the side. The reason you want ap is your ultimate. If you have none, the revive will only bring the target to about half hp and they will be quickly bursted down again 9/10 times.
When do you think he would be a better pick than other supports. What teams does he synergize best with?
I assume he is a great counterpick against pick comps.

Zilean is really bad against dive happy supports like Thresh or Leona. But is a good pick with an agressive poke heavy AD carry. My personal favorite pair ups with him are
. He is also good with AD carries who scale super hard into late game.
And yes, he is really good against enemy comps about picking one target out and forcing a fight from there. Just don't pick him if the enemy support went Thresh. By far the worst time for Zilean ever.
E or Q max? I feel like maxing Q gives you a mediocre laning phase, but a awful midgame, while maxing E gives you a horrid laning phase, but an amazing midgame.

Maxing Q is usually the right way to do it, ONLY if you can consistantly land the bombs. Zilean's laning phase has never been the best, And has always been a team fight support somewhat like Janna, but maxing Q gives you harass in lane. And around level 5 or so the bombs start doing some decent damage.
