The Bork build is the standard build because it has a pretty easy build path and gives Zed most of the stats he needs.

When I first started playing Zed, I didn't understand why people liked building attackspeed (bork) on Zed. That 25 AD seems really really weak. Cutlass has the same AD as Bork.

So, I built Tiamat most of the time.

Then Zed's attack speed got nerfed and sometimes I would miss out on a kill because someone flashed away right when my auto attack animation started.

So, I made the switch to Bork. I was finally able to make the auto attack, thus being able to use my passive.

Another reason why someone would get Bork over Tiamat would be the lack of an animation. Also, Tiamat active rarely deals the same damage as a basic attack.

Lastly, dueling or 1v2ing as Zed is the coolest thing ever, and Bork is a better duel tool than Tiamat/Hydra.
