Diana has a much lower diffuclty than Zed. That means Zed players don't need to be careful when enlisting Diana allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to do well with you.
Working cooperatively, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
In contrast, by aligning Zed and Diana together, you will not be providing your other teammates enough utility. Plan to pick other champions on your team that helps cover this relative gap in their playstyle.
Regardless of your Diana ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well, regardless.
