Someone please explain how Zed takes skill

Yea I know he has skillshots, but their hitboxes are ridiculously large. And when he ults he's literally in your face, so it's pretty hard to miss his skillshots. But it gets better. When he's done bursting you he can immediately return to safety.

If you think he doesn't take skill, go try to play him.

Something I do if I think a champion is too easy, proves nothing because I am awesome with every champion, but normal people should try champions before deciding if they require skill or not.

If a champion required no skill, then every person who mains that champion would be challenger. Right?

That makes no sense. Obviously there's a difference in skill between a bronze player and a challenger player (but this can be said for literally any champ), but I still think Zed is stupidly easy to play (regardless of which tier you're in) and way too rewarding.

Zed takes skill. If skill could be measured in units, and Zed took 0 units of skill to play, then by maining Zed you would be challenger. If you play a champion perfectly without any mistakes, then you will reach challenger, right?

cast equinox under zed's target and watch him not use abilities.

watch him walk out of your equinox with half health, teleport back to safety and his ult do 25% of your adc's health.

It isn't that she can protect someone from assassins, it's that she is among the most brain-dead easy champions to play in the entire game.

Also, lol, "one". Many can.

Some do it easily, and with nothing the assassin can do to counterplay. Janna

Pressing R is easy. Thats for sure. But unloading a very complex combo depending heavily on where you put your shadows, THEN shooting out skillshots while hammering your opponent with auto attacks simultaneously without being peeled is hard balls.

Like look at his winrate. its like 46%

he's fairly easy to play after the first game but mastering him is a whole different story i'd say

Please, just go play him and end the game with a positive KDA. You should be able to do it without breaking a sweat if he's that easy, right?

The skill isn't playing Zed, that's easy. It's playing against competent enemies.

You got it all wrong.

It's: Zed takes skill to play, but his kit is bullshit
