The goal of this build is to bring Zilean back to being a major threat. Bombs/Explosives and helping allies are two of my favorite things in all of League of Legends (and other games).

I think Zilean already has plenty of tools to help out his allies. You have your Time Bomb stun, Time Warp to slow or boost friends/enemies and a revive through Chronoshift.

What Zilean hasn't kept up in though is damage and that's really what I feel is missing. All these Karma, Lux, Mel, Brand and Vel'Koz players are pushing and trying to shove us out of lane and I'm here to stop them.

With Electrocute you can do some interesting combos:

Time Bomb + Rewind + Time Bomb + Auto-Attack to proc Cheap Shot.

Time Warp + Time Bomb + Auto-Attack short trade to proc Cheap Shot.

Time Warp + Time Bomb + Rewind + Time Bomb.

Time Warp + Rewind + Time Warp + Auto-Attack.

Positioning is one of the most important things you can learn in League of Legends.

It's especially important on Zilean because you need to be alive to Time Bomb, Time Warp, and to Chronoshift allies. It's important that you position well enough so you don't have to Chronoshift yourself.

You should almost always aim to be outside of the fight, just like in other MMOs, it's the Tank in first, followed by DPS/Bruisers/Fighters, followed by Mages/Casters/Healers.

Always be thinking about your positioning, I think if you can master your positioning you'll always come out ahead. :)

Always try to figure out your mistakes when they happen or as they happen. As you play and learn Zilean and other champions you'll get better.

I believe most of the time, your death was for a reason and is hardly ever just straight up ********. Here are a few examples:

-You didn't auto-attack minions fast enough early in the laning phase to hit your level 2 before your enemies did and they engaged on you when you were level 1 without your Rewind to double Time Bomb stun the enemy.

-You face-checked the brush instead of Time Bombing it first to reveal if anyone was in it.

-You didn't press tab to see your enemies items to know that they came back to lane from a recall with an advantage.

-You were way too close to an enemy or you didn't dodge an important ability.

-You missed your second Time Bomb to stun the enemy, but that's ok, it happens! Keep practicing! :)

-You fought for no reason a minute before an objective came up, trying to save an ally who was clearly dead and out of position, even with Chronoshift giving them a second chance. Now you're both dead.

You got this, learn from your mistakes. Lets go!!
