Have you tried PMing iverson_2k8 about this? He’s the best classic zon to my knowledge.

Can you get 20ias on rare gloves in classic? I forget. Asking because if the majority of Zvz chars are using death combo then both seem like a bad option. If majority of chars are not using death combo then tough call. With 75 CR and HFD, the psaph isn’t going to last too long and the person could just step back and reposition for half a second while it wears off, in that case peme wins.
That being said, if they don’t have HFD or high cr then psaph would be great for going on the offensive/chasing someone down. It could be an outcome-changing socket in that case. But other point against psaph is that once they get owned in such a way once, they will put on cbf for the rest of the set and your socket will be useless. However, if they do go with cbf when it wasn’t on their main build, that means they are weakening themselves to gain it which is a plus.

Tough cal overall since you can’t change sockets. It’s hard to make a choice without being familiar with the standard gear for Zvzs on classic

I was thinking 60-40 for saph, but if death combo is standard then neither
