Bit of a play by play breakdown: First their fiddle engages, and I know we're in a bad spot. I try to get some damage off with my shadow but I don't want to get caught with their cc and aoe burst so I stand back when I notice the fiddle zhonyas/brand ult.

After that flag combos urgot and ults him. Had he ulted me I would have used my shadow to get away as it was coming up. I know urgot is helpless at this point so I throw a shuriken to attempt to do a bit of damage to weaken the inevitable push. After that, fiddle heads in. I didn't expect the engage, so i was a bit too far back. At this point I figure I have to make the best of his engage, or we lose, so I prepare to go in. it looked like an easy snipe on fiddle/sona, but then sona(AP) uses zhonyas and fiddle walks away. So I have to back out.

At this point I'm thinking, all or nothing. Cait was walking forward too quickly, so I figure I can ult her to dodge J4's flag toss, and quickly burst her. Sona ults too early resulting in a miss, which goes in my favor. I then shadow out of Brand's w to avoid getting the burn debuff from his passive. I then use another shadow to confuse them further and get into a better position so I can get a 3 person aoe e+hydra.

Now I I run out of HP and my GA ticks in. brand uses his zhonyas by mistake, giving me an opportunity after. So I think during my GA time of who to jump on. I decide on fiddle, because if he gets off a fear in time, I'm guaranteed to die due to it being undodgeable and long duration. So I quickly shadow onto fiddle and burst him.

After that I see j4 and sona grouped up too close, so I take advantage of it and pop Youmu's to get into the proper position to hit them both as quickly as possible, then combo them. From there I get a bit excited, but then I quickly realize that if I don't get to the nexus ASAP we'll lose the turret. So Then begins my struggle with the winions, which honestly would have made the play 10x funnier if I failed.

well played, my friend. Well. Played. If I were the enemy team I would surrender right now for common decency.

Nice man. I had a similar thing happen the other day with Jayce, 1v5 penta at baron. I had no way to record it though and was super sad lol.

Mind telling me what program let you record the replay? Thanks!

I play Zed (silver 3) and right now I just have to say your mechanics are just amazing. Hopefully I can become a better Zed one day... xD

Even if you lost I would count that as a personal win.

What are you in ranked, by the way? That was amazing. I know I wouldn't have been able to pull that off even if I tried 20 times in a row.

I like how the only comment on that whole last fight was "nice zed".

epic. Anyone saying this is a 5v5 please post the video where you don anything REMOTELY this sick. Assuming I hadn't shoved my foot through my monitor after rushing 1 player with 5 players and dying I would have had to uninstall league for a period no shorter than 2 days.
