What if Zed's projectiles did not go through minions...

Frostmane··2 votes·878 views

If Riot want to make Zed less frustrating to play, all they need to do is make his projectiles NOT pass through minions. This would reduce his oppressive poke and would eliminate half the frustrating problems with him overnight. There are pleanty of champions who skillshots do not pass through minions, such as the first part of Vel'koz's Q and I do not understand why Zed needs it. His projectiles are metal objects, they would not pass through targets in the real world so why here?

It would also help reduce his wave clear and splitpushing power in one go while keeping his damage and giving him the assassination he needs to do his job?

Just reduce the damage they deal when passing through minions, that would be a safer thing to do. Take it easy man, you can't just go ripping champions guts out. Baby steps.

I really do not see a problem with this, LOTS of champions have skillshots that do not go through minions, so why does he? He does not need waveclear or splitpush power, he is an assassin, its his role.

Talon wat Leblanc wat Fizz wat Katarina wat


But as much as I hate Zed, I do not like the amputating action on him. I rather see his damage reduced instead of being negated too much.

Yeah, this would actually destroy him.

only talon and fizz can splitpush (fizz only with lichbane and most fizzes dont build that anymore).

The dmg is already reduced when they pass through minions, there are also nerfs on the PBE...

AD mids disgust me for a number of reasons I don't play them. If you're against a champion who is gated by mana, you can win the lane just by pushing, forcing them to spend mana to last hit and keep from being pushed under tower, and then they get to freely roam.

Well, blame RIOT for introducing manaless champions. If Zed had mana, he wouldn't be played mid at all. He would be probably a jungler.

Ironically that was his intended role... before Shadow Slash(E) dun gutted.

Idk why this is down payed, this would give counter play to avoid his Mage like poke that we have all been wanting to get rid of.

If they did something like that, we'd have an AD Taliyah/Karma.

Don't even get me started on the "His projectiles are metal objects, they would not pass through targets in the real world" part.
