Original Zed

Bearing weapons imbued with lightning magic through the deadly Cloud Ritual, Shockblades are an order of mysterious shinobi warriors tasked with protecting humankind from malevolent spirits and monsters. They travel between the mortal and spirit realms to chase down threats no one else can touch, safeguarding the future for all denizens of the mortal world.

Shockblade Zed

An elite operative of the Shockblade order, Zed dives into battle with lightning-fast lethality. Though his former partner Shen hasn't forgiven himself for nearly getting Zed killed, Zed still urges him to return to the front lines; and yet the Storm rages on, whether or not the duo are reunited. Zed will bring its fury to bear alone if he must.

Congratulations to your Worlds winners for 2013: SK Telecom T1!

World Champions: 2013

Some say holding up the Summoner's Cup before a stadium of cheering fans is the greatest prize... others say it's the cash. The folks who make Skins on the League of Legends team? We think that the best part of winning Worlds is being immortalized in your favorite game. And we aren't biased!

SKT T1 Zed

Loot exclusive gained during the 2019 PROJECT event.

PROJECT: Zed

Rising from the Command Line, Zed is a leader within PROJECT's counter-espionage units. He seeks out the G/NETIC rebels with split high frequency blades and molecular “solid smoke” projectors, favoring close-proximity and multiple angle target laceration.

The greatest stage in all of gaming. Two teams face off before millions of fans. Only one will be crowned the champion.

Worlds 2016 Zed

Celebrating Worlds 2016 in North America.

Having lived his life in the shadows, Zed's eventual return from the dead should have come as no surprise to anyone. A master of unliving darkness, he is only too happy to spend all eternity spilling mortal blood, as one of the Death Sworn.

Death Sworn Zed

From the urbanized coreworlds to the outermost edge of the galaxy, adventure awaits! The great Demaxian Empire ignores the objections of the Templar Order and the criminal Syndicate alike in their pursuit of ora—a mysterious golden essence that serves as the lifeblood of all civilization, and promises untold power to those who can wield it for themselves…

Galaxy Slayer Zed

This chroma was released as a Loot exclusive in the 2020 Worlds event.

Zed was a promising Templar before he became host to the hivemind of ora and imbued with its alien essence. Able to morph his body into living weapons, he now sees himself as the perfect life form, deserving of all ora and destined to cleanse the galaxy of the weak.

PsyOps Zed

This chroma was released as a Loot exclusive in the 2020 PsyOps event.

Known as the “Gas Can Man” in paramilitary circles, Zed is an infamous mercenary picked up by the Black Rose Group during one of their covert actions. His psionic powers are tied to a mysterious oil-like substance he ingests through his mask, allowing him to duplicate himself for assassinations and open combat.

The PROJECT Corporation believes unlocking the secrets of humanity's potential is the key to progress beyond our mortal bodies. It is through technology that we will ascend. Together.

PROJECT

Among the mega-structures and packed streets of a future controlled by global corporations, a shadow war rages between rebellious, augmented humans and newly empowered artificial beings. The winners will shape the course of history... and the losers will be forced to evolve.

Faced with imminent defeat at the hands of Mordekaiser and the numberless hordes of infected machines, Zed seeks out a dilapidated research facility in the heart of the wasteland, searching for illegal and potentially dangerous upgrades. His return may mark a tipping point in the battle for the City… though he has transformed into something beyond both human and machine.

Debonair Zed

This chroma was released as a Loot exclusive in the 2021 Debonair event.

The most powerful (and powerfully dressed) man in Nox Vegas, Zed has been dabbling in more than fancy parties and cutthroat dealmaking. A new crowd from Crime City has entered his inner circle, granting this debonair gentleman an unbreakable stranglehold over the strip… and a dreadful new change in both mind and body.

The first Empyrean, Pyke, tears through the realms on a destructive rampage against his counterparts, birthing new Empyreans in the process. Who will reign supreme as these new powerhouses emerge, and what will they do with their rapidly dwindling time left?

Empyrean

Few know of the Foreglow, and even fewer have seen its volatile neon flames. Normally a cosmic balancing force, something has tipped the scales, causing realms to collapse and funnel the Foreglow's power into single beings. Now known as Empyreans, these otherworldly forces of nature blaze a trail through the realms, each with their own agenda. The fire is spreading, with no end in sight.

Empyrean Zed

This chroma was released as a Loot exclusive in the Worlds 2022 Event.

The Foreglow is a power many desire, but Zed resents how it exposes him. His is a strength born from darkness, away from prying eyes. Perhaps in the fallen Husk realm left in Pyke's wake can he build a new domain of shadows, one that no Empyrean can topple.

Long ago, in an ancient land, many souls gathered beneath the gods to test the limits of their power. Foolish and arrogant, brave and just, their journeys are written into the immortal pages of history…

Immortal Journey

This chroma was released as a bundle exclusive in 2023.

Immortal Journey Zed

When Zed became immortal and began studying the other realms, a new desire took hold: knowledge was everywhere, so he needed to BE everywhere. Upon discovering his explorations, the Grounded Foresight School banished him. Zed doesn't care, though, for he's found a new demonic power, allowing him to be everywhere and all-knowing.
