How to Play with Zed as Kled in LoL

The Kled Zed synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Zed, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Kled sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Zed. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Zed helps Kled perform poorer in ranked League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Kled is paired with Zed, he gets a barely noticable drop in his full damage dealt. This change could signal that Zed doesn't help protection for him to dish out more damage or that his presence also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Kled is played with Zed on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Zed. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Zed.

Additionally, when Kled plays with Zed on the same team, he often takes a little more damage than when he fights alone. Receiving more damage may mean that Zed does a poor job of covering Kled during team fights.

Is Kled better when played alongside Zed?

There is no one best ally for Kled that will 100% of the time be his ideal teammate. Yet, overall, Zed is a terrible companion for Kled. By playing on the same side as Kled, he lowers their win rate by -3.5% to 47.5%. This demonstrates that there is an easy to overcome and exploit strategic relationship between Kled and Zed that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Zed has a lower difficulty than Kled. That means Kled players don't need to be very careful when enlisting Zed allies to play with, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing on the same side, Kled players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. When paired, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by bringing Kled and Zed together, you may not be giving your other teammates a great deal of magic damage. Make sure to include other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Zed ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
