Apparently Zed is broken and faceroll, post your faceroll games here!

SwapShadows·Mar 25, 2015·5 votes·4,351 views

since apparently Zed is unfair to play against and always wins lane (according to forums) lets all post games of going 20/0

Rules:

cannot be against bots
has to be against a semi-serious team meaning no double ADC top
no crying

MOST IMPORTANT RULES:

No deaths, it's been stated his ult allows him to escape every situation
super high cs, it's been stated he can cs too easily

Bonus points:

The players who win against a team of functioning people that pick exhaust and go QSS or zhonyas and post it here will get a smiley face

Let the fun begin!

Dat name is just screaming Zed main, thats just funny how biased this post is.

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20151 votes

Not really, Zed is just my favorite champion. I honestly do not like playing him that much mainly due to having a low end computer which makes him slightly harder to play and the fact that he gets countered too easily now adays, I hate having to work ridiculously hard because someone went malphite with exhaust midlane and makes me do 0 damage.

Doesn't alter the challenge in anyway, shape or form

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20151 votes

Yea im just trying to confirm these claims by most forum goers

or disprove them :)

Don't own Zed and he's not on free week.

Otherwise, you have WAY to many modifiers there. What if I went 50/0/0 but my CS was bad because I was so busy farming them? What if I went in 1v5 and only killed 4 people instead of 5, and the 5th was able to kill me?

Sorry your questions go against the QQ of the forums.

No, it really doesn't. Nobody on the forums (outside of extremely annoyed people who want a champion gutted, not nerfed) has complained that Zed is literally unkillable or literally gets every cs. What people complain about is he is EXTREMELY hard to kill without dedicated long duration lockdown and massive burst, and that he has EXTREMELY easy waveclear and csing.

Seems like you haven't been reading QQ threads

AMYS GRAVEMar 25, 20155 votes

or what if i was 0-0-30 with 400cs but took 6 towers 2 inhibitors and the nexus by myself because zed can split push for days even when he gets no kills in lane.

your metric for measuring power is fundamentally flawed.

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20152 votes

This thread went over your head.

AMYS GRAVEMar 25, 20159 votes

No i get it. You're a zed main saying "don't touch my champion" using flawed logic and hyperbole to create an emotional and hostile environment so you can point out that everyone on the boards "just QQs" and doesn't want to have an actual conversation while displaying those same qualities yourself. I think that sums it up.

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20151 votes

Well I can counter every single one of your arguments if I wanted too, state some.

Also saying Zed can splitpush with no kills in lane means nothing, you don't need kills to be strong on any champion.

AMYS GRAVEMar 25, 20154 votes

you don't need kills to be strong on any champion.

and that is why your metric for measuring strength is flawed.

you're proving my point by telling other players that they are "talking out of their ass".

I'll be happy to continue an honest conversation there. There is no reason to duplicate our posts at this point.

It's typical that the only people that defend Zed are Zed mains.. I mean at least make it less obvious since I can tell just by looking at your name.

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20151 votes

Well it's also typical that people who are against Zed are usually low elo and consider exhaust and zhonyas/QSS a wasted item against a Zed

someone literally told me Zed has no counters today.

NewMkMar 25, 20152 votes

Lol shit, i'm a terrible player I don't even know why i accepted the challenge. I'm disgracing all the zed players in the world by showing this but here it goes.

The 2 people who got really fed in my team where gold ecks dee, enemy team also had a gold and plat player.

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20152 votes

At least you tried, now on a scale of 1-10 tell me how "OP" zed was

and dang that enemy team died a lot lol

I'd say at farming he is an 8/10 and killing champions I will go with 7/10 (even though I didn't get many kills i was doing mad damage to the enemy). For me he dosen't feel super duper strong like in people's QQs

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20151 votes

oh trust me it gets worse, the amount of leona's, malphites and lissandras that make you struggle for a win will increase.

He's still a good champion, just not as good as QQ threads make him out to be.

ÅronMar 25, 20152 votes

Oh look, a rebuttal to my post.

You still fail to see my point of that thread, no matter how many times I post it.

I do not think Zed is broken, OP, faceroll, whatever you want to call it. He is just not fun to play against in my opinion.

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20152 votes

This has nothing to do with your thread, lol.

worst troll ever

zed doesnt faceroll and i dont know what shenanigans are told on this boards (some ppl go full retard indeed)

but he is known for a capability to quite reliably assasinate a target who is protected, and if it fails quite reliably get out ofc he can fail like anyone can, but his level of safety compared to how ham can he go is indeed realy high

the only drawback of this feature is that zed is counterable, on the other hand his counter items have drawbacks too -zhonya is composed of armguard, zed starts with brutalizer meaning he will probably get fed on you and hunt your adc, whiich might lead to you actualy allowing zed to get a good start since you are building to fawour him, ofc you will be immune to him but there are ways to counter that fact on his side -qqs built on a squishy sucks, reason is simple, there is no such a time when you can actualy let your damage fall off, if you are an adc and i assume we are speaking about an adc, getting qqs means losing to other adc who just buys ad and crit, in the end its only a viable counterplay to zed if you are ahead enough to not fall off becuase of that purchase

so one counter item sucks because you actualy counter yourself with it untill its finished, you can sentence both yourself anf your team to death just to be able to survive 3 seconds more in late game which is useless when your team is not able to survive without you and zed can make sure of that

while second one requires you to have a lead in gold since it causes a heavy loss in power for a damage dealer

also the second issue you mentioned, his farming its not that he farms better than others, its that he can farm safely under any circumstances, a big weakness of a meele champion is that he can be harrased, zed cant, he can farm safely, and unlike mages who can do the same he doesnt go oom

so in the end the problems are 2 -his counterplay sucks, it either removes him or doesnt work depending on who is fed -he doesnt lose the lane despite being able to win it, since his actual range is comparable with mages and he doesnt pay mana

those 2 things are in my opinion the cause of the whole zed uproar, with riots changes they became abusable for zed since mages couldnt just farm with skills so no zhonyas and no lane presence, so zed always had an upper hand againts a mana user in midlane

his insane safety is made up by him being ahead, due to mana regen nerfs which allowed him to safely outfarm enemies, enemies just didnt have the power to actualy punish him his insane waveclear is made by mana regen changes making mages unable to keep up

it evolwed to be a quite long wall of text, but read it, ppl go butthurt and post sh*t, i just wanted to correct that zed hate is justified, either mages get to be resourcless (theoreticaly ... you know ... the chalice) and actualy compete with his abusable playstyle, or they dont and zed gets to be a jack of all trades hriving one that weakness

SwapShadowsMar 25, 20151 votes

Zed can't just kill a target and leave under normal circumstances, please don't leave out the fact that ADC's and APC's have a support to help them as well as other teammates

Farming under turret as a melee is actually quite hurtful

Using your 20 second escape for poke is hurtful

Zeds build brutalizer first if they get ahead in lane

well thats the thing under those circumstances other assasins cant even try to get close zed is able to actualy try to do that, which is already a diference, not to mention he gets a shot at going out without dying im not saying that he is 100% sure to kill the adc, but among assasins he is the one who can go into the worst situations and still has a chance to get out

Farming under turret as a melee is actually quite hurtful

i never said it isnt

i just said that zed can effectively farm from a range that mage cant harras him from, a medicore range mage, xerath will still poke him hard

but in the end his capability to play like a ranged champion is realy hard to cope with as it increases his safety vs ranged opponents and junglers and gives him poke

Using your 20 second escape for poke is hurtful

yes it is still he keeps the range, so he is safer than most of assasins

Zeds build brutalizer first if they get ahead in lane

zed builds brutalizer when its a good choice to do so in his opinion you cant just assume that the guy will buy exact items you say a brutalizer is a perfect choice to counter an armguard, so we need to consider zed building it, and well i just see zeds rush this item most of the time so i do assume he gets it first

im not saying zed is the best of all champions who can make solo pentas, im just saying that his ballance is weird, since some of his counterplay options work in his fawour, and his kit's abusiveness is strictly tied to the ballance of mages
