Remind me again why Zed is a "healthy assassin"

As stated by Riot a while ago. I fail to see how someone with untarget is "healthy" for this game. And he has some of the best burst and poke among mid champs. And he's manaless.

Those items existing ≠ Zed balanced

His kit....well as like the majority of assassin's exploits the enemys mistake. ...I'm not to be bad on manners but how much lack of knowledge the enemy person has. In Zed's case this is greatly on emphasis. And like the guys above, one of his cryptonite is ready from the start.

Because he is a one-shot single target assassin. If he fails to kill the target, he is completely fucked and might as well not be in the game. It's why hourglass fucks him so hard. Other assassins can just switch targets because they usually aren't completely reliant on their ult.

Conveniently forgetting Zed's ability to split push, I see. Interesting.

He still has good poke even if he doesn't kill his target.

because he blows up one champ in a fight and is pretty much done(unlike assassns like kat lb and i guess akali) and he tells you exactly what he can do he ults you know who hes going after and where he is going.

I think a good way to give zed a tiny nerf is give his passive 5% instead of 10% of enemy health but over two autos instead of one. Just involves getting two autos off is all.

Passive Details Zed's basic attacks against targets below 50% health deal 6 / 8 / 10% of the target's maximum health as bonus magic damage.

This effect can only occur on the same target once every few seconds.

So change values to ** 3 / 4 / 5% **

This effect can only occur on the same target twice every few seconds.
