Zed is a shadow assassin, being able to cast short cooldown skills and summon shadows to mimic his skills. He has high single target damage and mobility, but can also use his spells to poke opponents, slowly setting up fights.


Zed is an original character from "League of Legends", but his skills are a little bit modified from the original character, although trying to maintain model fidelity.
Zed breathes calm and coldly, having his blades ready for combat.

Animation:

Base model:

Zed walks slowly, but on a similiar way to his idle animation.
Inspiration:

Animation:

Zed plays jokenpo with his shadow.
Animation:

Zed staggers for a little but protects his face, maintaing his guard up.
Animation:

Zed slashes twice with his blades, them does a third circular attack. The first 2 attacks have low range and low damage, but also a low cooldown(0,2 seconds), the third has high damage. It has 3 attacks, working as: uses first attack, if it land and the player clicks again, uses the second attack, if it lands and a third click is used, is does the circular slash. If it doesn't land the attack or it lands but it doesn't click again after 1 second, this skill resets to the first attack,

Cast:

Zed throws his shurikens on a straight line, with a long range, his shadows mimic this attack, also throwing shurikens of their own. If an enemy is hit by any of them, it gets marked. Zed can blink behind marked enemies, doing damage in a short area.

Normal effect:

Shadow effect:

Blink(the mark that stays on the enemie is the same one that appears under Zed):

Zed summons a Living Shadow to attack in a straight line, with a medium range. After the shadow reaches is destination, it stays there, working as a normal living shadow.
Cast:

Effect:

Zed stabs in front of him, with a short range, if an enemy is hit it gets marked and stuned for 1 second. While the enemy is marked, all the damage to him stacks until the mark explodes, dealing all the damage dealt to the target, 3 seconds later. Zed also leaves a shadow from where he first cast the skill, which can also be used as a normal "Living Shadow".

Cast:

Mark and its explosion:

Effect:

Zed creates a shadow on the target location, if he reactivates the skill, he telerpots to it. Zed's shadows can mimic "Razor Shuriken" and live 4 seconds each.
