Really? You call this a bug?

You guys do realize that this "bug" is a direct result of nerfing the speed of his W's shadow, right?

When Zed was released, if you were fast enough to press Q before your shadow landed, it would still shoot the Q without an animation. This "bug" has been present since Zed's release, and you've only noticed it recently because his shadow is three times slower than it was on release.

You could try fixing this self-made bug by increasing the shadow speed back to normal.

DISCLAIMER: I am not "bitching about a nerf to my main" I am calling out Riot for shitty balancing and "bug fixing" and giving them alternate advice on how to fix it.

According to Rito, that's a bug. However, Caitlyn can still cast E-Q at the same exact time as one another in the same animation cycle, but that's fine.

You actually have to cast Q after E. It animates while she's dashing backwards.

I think you missed the point, friend

They're still cast-able in the same animation cycle, which is exactly what Riot just stated that Zed does, and they're making it so that he can't.

It's also a contradiction from Riot, because technically Alistar's famous W-Q combo is the same thing as Riot didn't want Zed doing.

Was his shadow speed nerfed? I can't recall o.O

If so, you're saying they should fix a bug by reverting a previous nerf?

It's an option, yes.

Well, the bug is fixed now.

If he needs buffs, he should get them considering that he's probably going to rise in play real soon. If he's under-performing in a meta that would give a Zed main <censored>, then it'll be clear as day then.

In other words, wait a patch. We'll see.
