How to Play with Zed as Seraphine in LoL

The Seraphine 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, Seraphine sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Zed. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Zed helps Seraphine perform not as well in ranked LoL games. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is only marginal.

When Seraphine is an ally to Zed, she observes a small increase in her total damage output. This difference could demonstrate that Zed provides cover for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Seraphine is played together with Zed 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 alongside Zed.

Moreover, when Seraphine plays with Zed on the same team, she often takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt more damage may mean that Zed does a poor job of covering Seraphine during teamfights.

Is Seraphine better when played alongside Zed?

There is no top companion for Seraphine that will always be her #1 ally. However, Zed is a relatively poor ally for Seraphine. By playing on the same side as Seraphine, he drops their win rate by -1.5% to 48.5%. This signals that there is a negative strategic relationship between Seraphine and Zed that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Zed has a much greater difficulty compared to Seraphine. That means you should be very careful when lining up Zed allies to fight alongside, as they will need a much higher level of skill to do well with you.

Working together, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Combined, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by bringing Seraphine and Zed together, you may not be giving your team a lot of AP. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that nullifies this gap in this pairing's kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Zed ally, you should focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
