tried him out more in solo top. Man, this guy is strong with dueling using shadow slash. Most people come up there thinking that he would only use shurikens, but dueling enemies with that low CD shadow slash of his really does amazing damage, while maintaining his energy a bit better. On the other hand, he's still squishy at the beginning, so he still needs to be careful.

What I do love about Zed is his versatility in early game. No matter who he's up against, his skill set still allows him to adapt to the situation. Think you can out duel solo top? Level E. Think you need to play safe or fight against ranged? Level Q. Once, I was accidently stuck as a support Zed at bot lane. I just used my WQ combo to harass the hell out of the opposing lane, while still staying relatively safe. (I seriously do not recommend this. At all. Please stick to top/mid/jungle with this guy)
