Timing is very important here. A lot of mid (or at least, me) have gotten used to when a Shaco gank comes, and can tell the signs from the enemy mid of when a Shaco gank is coming. This prompts them to play very passively, and thus, renders Shaco useless in mid game (assuming the rest of the team doesn't feed him either). Short Answer: If the enemy is playing like a massive pussy, it'll be very hard for you to gank him. | ||

Ganking mid is impossible if they play well unless you hit at blue respawn / when they ward. His boxes are really good for push comps and he gives a heavy jungle presence. + hes the only jungler i can play other than Lee Sin and Zed. | ||

Zed's E is a ridiculous tool for dps, AoE damage on a 3s cd with a pretty good ratio. | ||

Zed's dps is also pretty high with his W passive, which makes him benefit more from lifesteal too, and his E probably dealt more damage than Jax's W and R (assuming ~1 AS and level 5 W) since it's physical and will benefit from Zed's penetration and AD while Jax relies mostly on AS and base damage. Zed's E is a ridiculous tool for dps, AoE damage on a 3s cd with a pretty good ratio. Other than "Zed does good DPS" IDK what you said. Zed outdueling Jax at lvl 18 is disturbing. And when I say "Duel" I mean Zed had 1/2 hp to start. | ||

And Zed's E, if cast on cd, basically out dps Jax assuming he gets an ult proc and an empower every 3 seconds and they're level 14 or so (not sure if it stays true at level 16, but it probably is), because it's almost the same base damage (level 5 E = level 5 Empower + level 1 ult, then ult gains 60 base damage per level) and Zed's E has a 0.8 bonus AD ratio, while Jax has AP ratios. Jax doesn't build much AP (100 would be a big number) while Zed will stack a lot of AD, while having it boosted by 25% from his level 5 W. If they start building resistances, Jax doesn't build much penetration because his split damage makes it hard to itemize, while Zed will probably build BC and/or LW, further increasing the gap between those abilities. This also means be benefits a lot more from lifesteal than Jax (and BT's part of his core, while all Jax-es don't build Gunblade or BotrK, so it depends on what that one had built), which he has in greater quantities. His autoattacks will also hurt more for the same reasons (more AD, and Armour Reduction/ArPen itemized). Jax still has Counterstrike of course, but Zed's ult can negate it in part and will do quite some damage to Jax (though he can easily ult to reduce it). In the end the amount of AS from Jax and the way they use their skills can play a part in it (esp. has Zed has no true gap closer apart from his ult), but Zed's dps should be higher than Jax once you take resistances and penetrations itemized in account, and Zed's ability to spam E every 3 seconds. Yes, Zed the "assassin" is broken like that. | ||

Yes, Zed the "assassin" is broken like that. An ult proc every 3 seconds for Jax seems pretty slow, actually. Also, Zed DOES run out of energy using all his abilities on cooldown for mopre than a short bit. Zed's W is DEFINITELY a gapcloser though (shit, it can be used as a straight up flash - most gapclosers can't - don't see how you can say it isn't). Especially being able to WEW to slow an opponent and then jump on them. It's worth noting though that one of jax's scariest 1v1 traits -the ability to dodge and completely ignore the fuck out of you for ~3 seconds (2 sec dodge + 1 sec stun) isn't something Zed is affected by all that much. I'd want to know what items Jax was sitting on that he got outdueled - was he behind or ahead in gold? Could his build be better suited to the opponent? (I'm a bigger fan of warmogs than GA now on Jax - especially with how it works with your free resists on R-active, and GA just having the living snot nerfed out of it in many ways.) | ||

Of course it only works if you're both standing and right-clicking each other to death, which is why I said "the way they use their skills play a part in it". You can both make Zed "waste" energy by forcing Qs, and he can sustain longer with clever use of W since it gives back more energy than it uses at higher levels. But the opportunities to outplay are somewhat hard to account for in a dps calculation so I wanted to remain simple. (You could also easily argue that Jax uses the sheen proc better on stuff like triforce, or that randuin's is a good defensive item on Zed in general while reducing Jax's main dps stat, AS, in this particular case, for example.) | ||
