Guide to Synergizing Rell and Zilean

Advice to Understand How Zilean Will Play

Time Warp is an effective way to enable allies to finish off enemies, or escape from a losing battle.

Chronoshift is a powerful deterrent to attacking your carries, but casting Chronoshift too early in a fight can cause the enemy to switch targets too soon, making it less effective.

You can combine the use of Time Bomb and Rewind to place two Time Bombs on a target quickly. Placing the second bomb will detonate the first and stun all nearby enemies.

How to Play with Zilean as Rell in LoL

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

Overall, Rell sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Zilean. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Zilean helps Rell perform not as well in competitive LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Rell is paired with Zilean, she observes a very large increase in her complete damage dealt. This difference may signal that Zilean supports by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Rell is played together with Zilean on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Zilean.

Moreover, when Rell plays with Zilean on the same side, she typically takes much more damage than when she plays alone. Taking more damage may mean that Zilean does a poor job of covering Rell during teamfights.

Is Rell better when played alongside Zilean?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Rell that will no matter what be her best teammate. Yet, Zilean is a very typical teammate for Rell. By locking into the same side as Rell, he improves their win rate by 0.3% to 49.6%. This clearly indicates that there is not really a strong synergy between Rell and Zilean that results in them performing better together than alone.

Zilean has a much greater difficulty compared to Rell. That means Rell players must be very careful when enlisting Zilean teammates to play with, as they will require a much greater level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Working cooperatively, Rell players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to buff allies and debuff enemies. When paired, these champions will help their other teammates secure a victory.

Although, by grouping Rell and Zilean together, you will not be providing your side very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to pick other champs on your team that fills this disparity in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Zilean ally, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
