I am personally a huge fan of Naruto. But Shikamaru and Zed do not have much in common. Lets create Shikamaru a skill set based off of his signature abilites.

Passive(Innate): Foreshadowing: Shikamura's intelligence and battlefield experience allow him to anticipate the enemies plans. Shikamaru gains a 10/17.5/25% chance to block the next incoming ability. Can not occur more then once every 10 seconds.

Seems Fair? Moving on then.

Shadow Imitation Technique: Shikamaru takes control of his targets shadow giving him control of them for 2/3/4/5/6 seconds. If Shikamaru attacks a target the possesed enemy also attacks that target be it ally or not. Shikamaru can use this on monsters. (just for jungling purposes hm?). This ability's range is increased is Shikamaru is out of brush.

Shadow-Neck Binding Technique: Shikamaru manipulates an enemy's shadow causing it to strangle them. The target is stunned for 1/1.5/2/2.5/3 seconds and suffers 40/80/110/175/250 damage (+70% of Attack Damage) (+45% of Ability Power) The closer Shikamaru is to his target the more damage this ability does.

Shadow Sewing Technique: Shikamaru manipulates the shadows into needle like tendrils that follow him. He summons 3/4/5/6/7 tendrils. He can send them forwards towards a target. This attack passes through targets and does 80/120/160/210/250 (+90% of Attack Damage). If a target is hit at the end of the attack (skill shot) they becomes anchored being slowed for 10/15/20/25/30% per tendril. After 3 stacks Shadow Imitation Technique is applied to the target.

Shadow Gathering Technique: Shikamaru demonstrates master control over the shadows. Activating this ability once summons 8 needle tendrils. These tendrils do 75% damage and apply half the slow. They do not activate Shadow Imitation technique. Activating this ability a second time pulls all enemies anchored by tendrils to Shikamaru's position. They are then slowed for double the stack of tendrils they had on them.

Ok. These are Shikamarus signature abilities. Compare these to Zed's abilities. They are nothing alike. Shikamaru use shadows to control you. Zed uses shadows assualt and retreat. They are much different
