Tips for Playing as Diana with Zed
Use Moonfall and Lunar Rush to stay on targets and activate Moonsilver Blade for extra damage.
Consider when to cast Lunar Rush without Moonlight and when to wait for another Crescent Strike.
Landing Crescent Strike is critically important, but don't be afraid to miss. The cooldown is short and the mana cost is low.
Advice to Understand How Zed Will Play
Placing a Living Shadow before using Death Mark can give Zed a safe escape from combat.
Saving energy and spell cooldowns until you use your ultimate will maximize Death Mark's damage.
Quickly double tapping Living Shadow will teleport Zed to his shadow immediately for rapid escapes.

Playing together, Diana players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
In contrast, by bringing Diana and Zed together, you may not be granting your team a great deal of utility. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of your Zed ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
