Guide to Synergizing Ashe and Zed

Tips for Playing as Ashe with Zed

Hawkshot reveals units in brush. If a team fight is occuring in the jungle it can give you a significant advantage.

Volley arrows are blocked by the first enemy they hit, so keep your distance to avoid having them all absorbed by enemy frontliners.

Try to fire Enchanted Crystal Arrow in the same direction enemies are moving, so it is more likely to hit.

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.

How to Play with Zed as Ashe in LoL

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

Overall, Ashe sees a large worsening in her 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 Ashe perform not as well in ranked League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Ashe tries to synergize with Zed, she observes a small increase in her total damage dealt. This change may indicate that Zed supports by providing cover for her to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Ashe is played together with Zed on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays without Zed. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Zed.

Moreover, when Ashe plays with Zed on the same team, she on average receives a little more damage than when she plays alone. Taking more damage may mean that Zed does a poor job of covering Ashe in teamfights.

Is Ashe better when played alongside Zed?

There is no ideal champion pairing for Ashe that will always be her best ally. However, overall, Zed is a relatively poor companion for Ashe. By locking into the same side as Ashe, he lowers their win rate by -2.0% to 46.6%. This shows that there is a negative strategic relationship between Ashe and Zed that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Zed has a greater difficulty than Ashe. That means you should be cautious when enlisting Zed comrades to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Fighting together, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by pairing Ashe and Zed together, you will not be giving your team a lot of AP. We recommend you have other champions on your team that offsets this relative gap in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of your Zed ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
