Effective Builds. Please help me.

How can I build according to my game/situation in an effective way? Say I'm facing a Zed and he is fed or is really powerful (AD Zed). In this case, I would normally build something that gives me armor. This exact situation just happened in my last game, and the armor seemed useless. He was building armor pen I saw, but then I didn't know what to do cause the armor that I build he could just counter with armor pen. And then at the same time, I don't wanna build a full Randuins on a squishy like Zed. IDK, maybe I should have built randuins, my main question is: How do I know exactly what items to get based on the situation? Like if I need armor, do I get Randuins? Or get Frozen Heart? etc.

I know this is kinda noobish but... Im a noob

Usually against a fed zed you would want to build zhonya's item 3157 (if you're AP) or QSSitem 3140 (eventually intoitem 3139 ) if you're AD. You can zhonya to avoid the damage from his ult or remove the death mark with the QSS.

if Zed is really fed, he'll probably destroy you regardless unless you build 100% to not get destroyed by him. You need to adapt your build before he gets super fed.

Building Zhonya's is definitely a good idea, but you'll also need to make a point of being very careful. Spending a little extra on map-wide vision (maintaining a pink, upgrading to item 3361 rather than item 3364) to keep your squishies (presumably including you) from being caught alone will help prevent your opponent from capitalizing too well on their advantage.
