Zed! (And to a lesser extent Yasuo)

Been looking at the boards, seeing the reaction to Zeds current state (aka broken AF imo) to see what people who like to defend Zed use to justify his state. After the recent nerf to QSS essentially ruling out counterplay for ADCs the arguments i hear boil down to 3 things:

  1. You shouldn't try to fight Zed 1v1.
  2. You need to learn your positioning better against a Zed.
  3. Wait for him to make a mistake.

This game has a lot of champs that have smaller windows of opportunity to capitalize on (See: Yasuo) than others. Champions like Fizz require a do-or-die dive with the only tool for escape being troll pole. Talon requires you to put yourself right in the heart of the enemy team with no real method of escape, once again, put up or shut up.

But Zed isn't like that. Zed has high damage, multiple escapes, great poking, great harass, and requires more from his opponent to contend with him than I'd argue any other champion in this game.

Riot, get your heads out of your asses and fix this damn champ.

  1. Make your mid laner act as bait so your team can collapse the Zed and win the game. Literally all teams with a Zed that dies early don't know what to do any more and just lose the game.

Ikr, and as long as you extend the game to late game you will win because Zed can't do shit unless your team are so dumb they don't know what CC is.

If your team has no cc in general, you will lose in like 16 minutes or something stupid unless the other team has no cc as well.

If your team has no CC in general you shouldn't be playing Normals, you should be in ARAM.

Sees complaints about Zed Eh typical stuff Sees nod towards Yasuo Well you're wrong but okay. Basically says Fizz is more balanced than Zed or Yasuo... Im done with this thread.

Anyways, hard CC him, and he will blow up. Simple.
