Its really hard to get into a game as Zed , unless you're playing bots , blind pick or a custom game.I am not much of a big Zed player , he is kinda one of my favorite mid laners , does he need a Nerf or some itemization/stat changes? Is there a reason for him getting banned so much? (Sorry if my English is bad ,I'm Indian) :D.I just wanna know why he gets banned so much , thanks for the help!
Dies to Wolves3 votesI honestly either just ban him as courtesy for my team (who surely wants him banned) or if I'm specifically going to pick a champion in mid which I think would be a bad matchup against a zed. I don't think he's remmotely close to as unbalanced as people claim he is. To me, old kassadin really was worth of being a perma ban; zed? Not so much.
Vain Maynee1 votesI mean I'm just here wanting to know more about Zed and him being banned and people just start down-voting thinking I'm complaining about him lmao.btw Kassadin? is he strong now? any tips pls?
IWillDeliver3 votesTo be fair I ban Zed because i'm and ADC main and regardless of whether Zed is fed or not, ZED LITTERLY DESTROYS ADC's, ALL OF THEM ARE SQUISHY.
Since the removable Zed's Ult on 
it's almost impossible for any ADC to really win against him. The combination of Zed is super easy to use, so I understand why people ban him especially ADC's. Mages of Jg/Mid have 
, Jg/Top/some supports are too tanky to be one shotted by a full combo, and you wouldn't normally ult a Support anyways. ADC's have no defense against someone like Zed.
I've had games where a Zed was 0/4 and I'm 10/0 but after a couple of items later he can one shot me with a full combo. It's legit broken.
Zed just destroys adc's and squishy champion's in general. You can't win against that. how are you suppose to have a late game as an ADC if Zed keeps killing you in one shot.
I'm not saying Zed should be changed. but ADC's need a new defensive item or bring back the old .
and when people say buy 
that only works on one time every like 3mins or something like that. and ADC's don't really want to buy a Defensive item they want to buy full Damage and we cant if we're getting a butt plug into our ass by one champion and we cant carry the team if we die every time we're up.
BloodyTompon2 votesStatistically no, there is nothing wrong with him. Ban rates tend to change much more slowly than the champion's power does.
Vain Maynee1 votesYea I guess you're right! Maybe someday I can play him again.
LostFr0st1 votesIf the Zed player is good, then he's good. If it's someone who doesn't know how to play Zed then he's much weaker than he was. I personally think he's in a fair place right now. I'm also saying this as someone who loves immobile champs if it matters.
masterdragon4811 votesZed has a long history of buffs to his kit (and his ultimate) because Riot was trying to balance him and make him viable in a world where QSS was removing his ultimate. As a result, it got damage buffs, a free escape, etc which at the time made sense.
But now with QSS no longer countering his ultimate, these buffs are now just straight up overpowered. So until Riot actually addresses his kit and the low risk assassination he is capable of performing, he will likely continue to be permabanned.
Vain Maynee1 votesYea ADCs struggle a lot against him mid-late game because of his core build and power spike.Maybe that's the reason he's been banned all along
Calabok1 votesZed is OP right now so he will be banned every game. Until RIOT decides to balance him properly, he will continue to be.
