Duskblade & Zed
Okay so I changed my name into a Zed tribute because I've been in love with him since the end of S3. All throughout Season 5, where assassins, especially AD assassins have been bumped off for quite a while, even then, I was on my Zed grind...
Biding my time...
And here comes season 6! Time to put my 300k mastery points to the meddle where assassins can finally shine! So I change my name - new season, new name, new mentality!
I was finally gonna do it. Main Zed my way up.
What happens?
Duskblade! Of course I was excited but, I didn't really think twice about it.
As someone who's been maining Zed for quite a while, I feel like I can say that Duskblade is not a big of threat on Zed as it is on other champions.
Shaco can double proc Nightfall. Xin Zhao is scary with it, regardless of the fact that it can't scale with the crit. Rengar can delete you that much faster now.
I've even played with it (maybe twice out of the past 20 games because Zed's banned nearly always now) and don't think it's all THAT good for assassins. The build path is a little awkward and Nightfall is only most effective when it can be timed correctly, otherwise it's just overkill after overkill with someone like Zed unless the TARGET is tanky.
I think it's a matter of time before people realize Zed isn't the champ to ban.
I also admit I may be heavily biased.

He was in a good place before. Take out Duskblade I don't care! I just wanna play Zed without getting banned 4/5 lobbies.
mid. And opponent pics Zed. How are you gonna counter him? You will get
of course. Now think, QSS removes both Zeds ultimate and Duskblade buff. Making Duskblade just stats item, and effect utterly useless. But lets say u are facing :
AND SIMILAR. You aint gonna build QSS against them, so their Duskblade will actually be effective.
