counters zed mid lane

Zed is a highly mobile and bursty champion that can quickly eliminate squishy targets in the mid lane. However, he can struggle against certain champions that can counter his kit and playstyle. In this post, we’ll be looking at the top 5 counters for Zed in the mid lane.

  1. Lissandra

Lissandra is a classic control mage that can effectively shut down Zed’s mobility and burst damage. She can use her Frozen Tomb ultimate to lock Zed down and deal a significant amount of damage, while her Ring of Frost ability can stun him and prevent him from engaging or escaping. Additionally, Lissandra’s Glacial Path can help her escape from Zed’s range and poke him from a safe distance.

  1. Malzahar

Malzahar is another control mage that can shut down Zed’s mobility and burst damage. He can use his Null Zone ability to deal a percentage of Zed’s maximum health as damage, while his Malefic Visions can jump from minion to minion and deal additional damage to Zed. Additionally, Malzahar’s Call of the Void ability can silence Zed and prevent him from using any abilities or escaping.

  1. Galio

Galio is a tanky champion that can absorb Zed’s burst damage and punish him for engaging. He can use his Shield of Durand ability to absorb damage and stun Zed, while his Winds of War can poke him from a safe distance. Additionally, Galio’s ultimate can allow him to quickly engage on Zed’s team and deal damage to them, while also protecting his own team from Zed’s burst damage.

  1. Yasuo

Yasuo is a fighter that can outplay Zed with his mobility and damage. He can use his Sweeping Blade ability to quickly dodge Zed’s Living Shadow and poke him from a safe distance. Additionally, Yasuo’s Wind Wall ability can block Zed’s Shuriken and prevent him from engaging or poking. If Zed does engage, Yasuo can quickly counter with his Last Breath ultimate and deal a significant amount of damage.

  1. Kassadin

Kassadin is an unpredictable assassin that can outscale Zed and punish him for engaging. He can use his Riftwalk ability to quickly escape from Zed’s range and poke him from a safe distance. Additionally, Kassadin’s Null Sphere can silence Zed and prevent him from using any abilities or escaping. If Zed does engage, Kassadin can use his ultimate to quickly burst him down and escape.

In conclusion, while Zed can be a strong pick in the mid lane, he can struggle against certain champions that can counter his kit and playstyle. If you’re facing a Zed in the mid lane, consider picking one of these five champions to gain an advantage and shut him down.
