Quick Question

So, I'm extremely curious as to how to counter zed as an adc late game. I use my two favorites, Vayne and Graves, and when I get into late game, zed 1 shots me with his R xD. I mean, he can dive and get all the carries without dieing, so, how do I stop him?

It's a team thing. Generally the support or tank keeps Zed off your ass, since an assassin is supposed to 100-0 the adc and escape. Your team's job is to make that difficult or outright impossible, but you can't do it singlehandedly typically.

You can build item 3139 , abuse bush vision tricks to outplay with Vayne or Graves and bursing Zed while he's stunned/blinded, but generally you don't want to interact with him unless he's cc'd. If you got a bruiser on the team, their job is to kick his ass and lock him down (think Darius or Vi, or hell even Garen can do it) so the team can blow him up.

Your job, as the adc, is to provide sustained damage in a teamfight and shred the frontline while yours protects you. Don't try to 1v1 the assassin, the odds are not in your favor.

Well, I'm not at a level where I get proper support, mainly bronze players crying about last pick and telling not to ban a certain champ, ect. When tea fights usually occur, if I do as you said, they get reeeeeally mad at me though, and I don't want to do that. So, as for telling the support to do something, what support champions can take him? The only one who I think has a chance is Leona.

CC is good, but so are defensive supports. Kayle hard-counters Zed's ult with her own, Karma can shield you to an extent, Lulu can also save you with her ult and a shield, and so on.

item 3222 isn't a terrible item to have either, since it gives a little heal.
