Zilean shouldn't have cc in his kit

Cloud273··1 votes·1,180 views

Before his rework, that was the one weakness he had. He had a game breaking ult and good damage, but if you wanted cc you needed help from your teammates. After the rework, his bombs are no longer point and click, but it's probably healthier that way anyways considering how strong his ult is. Anyways, my point is Zilean shouldn't have cc. He's already broken enough without it.

Do you actually have a counter argument, or are you just going to mock me?

His cc requires actual skill and risk as opposed to just being point and click so I don’t know why you are complaining?

Why not? He's a support. And supports usually have either cc, heals or shields in their kit.

I'm surprised to see a "Nerf Zilean" thread and, even more so, one that implies that we should take away essentially his identity as a "Utility" champion.

I can understand changing ratios and damage, but removing any form of CC from him would be like removing Draven's Axe-Catching mechanic.

So, I disagree with your suggestion.

CC isn't his identity. His identity is someone who can control time and also save allies when his ult is used properly. Before the rework he never had cc and he was fine. Why does he need it now?

He had a slow and, trust me, he was much more annoying before the rework than he was after.

I know, because he's been my main for 4 seasons so far.

Ok I admit I forgot he had a slow, but a slow isn't hard cc. Now he's able to revive AND hard cc someone, but sure he was more annoying BEFORE the rework lol.

Try facing a Zilean that had a 30 second revive at level 6 and a perma slow. Now, even though he has stun and his slow has been increase but it has more of a window to allow people to slip away and you actually have to aim both bombs and his revive only hits 30 seconds at level 3 instead of level 1.

Zilean has one of the highest skill caps in the entire game.

why would you bother picking him then? just for his ult? at that point his ult would need to do way more than just revive an ally for him to be useful. Nobody would pick him at all since you could pick something that not only can save teammates but provide way more than just an ult

Ok while we're at it, make it so that his W affects his R cd. Also make it so that his Q is clickable. Wait I'm not done, make his passive give global experience. Lastly, make it so that his E slows for 5s instead of 2.5 and we got ourselves a deal!
