where dem zed buffs

I think you just don't like fighting his kit, due to it's "fuck this single guy in particular" style

and that's alright, we can have preferences. But in terms of the game as whole in relation to his current balance, every single stat screams that he's underpowered

whether or not he should be buffed back is personal preference, but don't confuse kit toxicity with being "op", it's a very common and incredibly misleading thing to do among the boards

He's sitting at a substantially low win rate despite a nearly 44% of his playerbase having 200+ games of experience on him, while maintaining a fairly high win rate

considering this, you wouldn't think a 47.75% win rate is balanced for most champions

a low win-rate is alright for a high skill-cap champion because you assume new players are going to draw the win rate down.

75% of zed players have 100+ games of experience, 44% of zed players have 200+ games of experience. He has a huge playerbase of experienced players and yet doesn't even manage a 48% win ratio.

He is still played/banned in 17% of games, meaning he's a playerbase favorite. He doesn't even scale well by game length

Personally, I'd rather him not get buffs. I don't like playing against Zed as a champion, but I still think he's at least slightly below-par.

Tbh, I'm just making this argument because too many people confuse an unfun kit with being synonymous to "op". Zed could be allowed to insta-gib anyone on the team and that'd be unfun, but if he can't close out games then it's not op, it's just a common misconception that I felt like fighting today.
