Hypercarries seem to work well for Bronze. I've only recently started playing ranked, but all of my wins seem to be going Zed and stacking AD and lifesteal...and pretty much nothing else. Does Zed work well with a mid game Giant's Belt item? Totally, it helps him survive when he dives the enemy carry, and I mention this on guides I've made for him. Are people going to focus you correctly in Bronze? Hell no.

The last game I played in as Zed, I got two Bloodthirsters, a Last Whisper, BotRK, Ionian boots, and Guardian Angel. I did not help my team with a tanky item like Randuins or Sunfire Cape. I did not get a Mercurial Scimitar, great on AD melee assassins. I did not get Merc Treads, a no brainer item on an assassin that needs to get into the enemy team to do his job. But I won because that is essentially how you have to build in Bronze, damage and sustain in a fight. No one in Bronze is going to kill a Zed with 50%+ lifesteal and 400 AD. When a fight happens, you ignore everything but killing the enemy team's fed carry, who will almost certainly get fed by someone on your team, but it doesn't matter because if you play someone like Ryze, Jayce, Zed, etc, you will kill them long before they can clean up your teammates.

If you play anything but hypercarries, or you build champions with a focus on utility as opposed to damage, you will find it very hard to carry your team. Last note, farm like crazy. You want to have the most CS on your team by far. This is also why I choose Zed for carrying ranked games, his waveclear is superb, and with flash and your W you have at least 2 blinks and a slow for when they try to punish you for split pushing.
