An idea to change zed

So,i'm one of those players who like zed.His theme,his abilities,his skins,everything,but right now he is stupid in many ways,his gameplay is pretty brain dead since is w-e-q,repeat until you can kill the enemy with R and run away,he is either banned or banned(really) and is just not healthy because people can't play him because he will either be banned or picked by the enemy team and if he gets ahead is stomp stomp stomp the adc.So,i came up with an idea to change him in what i think would require more thinking.

NEW Passive(values and effects can change of course):Striking from the Shadows

After zed uses Q or E on an enemy he has 1/1,5/2 seconds to continue the combo by using the other ability or a basic atack. Q+basic=Q+E=aditional 15/25/35% dmg from q on proc(can also be cast by the shadow at her location) E+basic=E+Q=aditional 40/50/60 dmg and apply a 15/25/35% slow for 1,5 secs ( can also be cast at shadow location)

Effects with Death Mark on the target(time to do the combo increased to the triggering moment of the ult): Q+basic=aditional 35/45/55% aditional dmg from q E+basic=60/80/100 aditional dmg and 0,1/0,2/0,3 secs root(not sure if this would be healthy or if a stronger slow or longer duration would be better) Q+E=E+Q=R does an aditional 10/15/20% dmg on proc(this applies to the entire dmg of the ult,may need to be changed to affect only the dmg from other sources like items,q,e,basics)

Zed can't do a combo on the same target for 24-7(starts after zed finished his combo)(1 second less for every lvl zed gets) seconds (a shadow will be able to do the above combos on any enemy champs,but the enemies can only get dmg from one at a time)

Values get upgraded at 6-11-16

Adjustment(values can change of course)(relative to the PBE 6.11 changes): -Lower AD per lvl to 3,2 per lvl -Lower Q base dmg to 50/85/120/155/190 -Lower Q ad ratio to 0.65 AD -Lower Q cd by 0,3/0,4/0,5/0,7/0,8 seconds at ranks 1,2,3,4,5 -Lower E base dmg by 15 at all ranks -Lower E CD by 0,5 seconds -Rise R CD 10 seconds on all ranks -Change R ad ratio to 35/45/55% total AD -Make the CD before recasting R 1/0,5/0 seconds

Here is my idea to make zed more combo reliant and less spammy w-e-q to do something.Pls leave your opinion in comments :P (and don't throw stones at me :c,use rp instead)

You make him sound easier than he his. He's probably one of the harder champs.

See, for me if they really wanted to make him interesting they should tailor his cooldowns towards "teamfighting". They could set his cd's to something like 14-1second per level for his q, 25-1s per level for his w, 18-1second per level for his e, and leave his ulti unchanged. For every enemy champion hit with one of his abilities though, it'd reduce all of the other cooldowns on his abilities by an additional 2 seconds. He'd still be playable as an assassin, but wouldn't exactly be "spam heavy" and would force him to time his abilities correctly in teamfights in order to deal maximum damage.
