How to play it

Hold R for his R
Never ult before Zed does: if your R is down when his Death Mark lands, the trade is his, so hold it to answer him.
Aim R at the shadow
When you do R him with a shadow up, angle it to clip both Zed and his shadow so he can't sidestep the damage.
Trade hard early
Take heavy trades early and keep the wave on your side: before his Eclipse spike this is your strongest window.
Never blow your ult before Zed commits his: if your R is on cooldown when Death Mark lands, you lose the fight.
