9.4 zed changes ( which meant to be a power shift from his lategame to his earlygame) Stats Attack speed growth increased to 3.3% from 2.1%. Razor Shuriken Base damage increased to 90 / 125 / 160 / 195 / 230 from 80 / 115 / 150 / 185 / 220. Bonus AD ratio increased to 100% bonus AD from 90%. Living Shadow Living Shadow Recast range increased to 1950 units from 1300. Cooldown reduced to 20 / 18.5 / 17 / 15.5 / 14 seconds from 22 / 20 / 18 / 16 / 14. Death Mark Death Mark REMOVED - REAPER OF SHADOWS: No longer grants Zed permanent 5 (+ 5 / 10 / 15% of target's AD) bonus AD upon takedown.

now in 9.8 you are reducing his q base damage and reverting the W cooldown is gonna make his earlygame the same as before but his late game is weaker due to the R passive being removed .

TL&DR : the whole zed thing was : AS growth : 2.1% >> 3.1% Q : ad ratio 90% >> 100% W : recast range : 1300 >>1900 R : Passive removed which is a joke from riot video games because losing nearly 50 ad at level 16 or more is completely not worth these changes :) oh not to mention riven and vayne are dominating solo q for months now but let's NuRF ZàD hés CROssed the OP liNe DùDE

Zed currently has a sub 50% wr in silver/gold/plat in NA according to champion.gg, and a 52% wr in diamond+. I don't think this is unreasonable, considering players with a few games on Zed don't dip into this winrate. Meanwhile riven and vayne get to be above 50% in all elos without seeing any nerfing.

Wait, they're BUFFING his early game while nerfing his late? Like I get he's about the same win rate across ALL GAME LENGTHS but why on earth would you buff his early game in exchange for nerfing his late? His early game is already pretty bonkers.

Also I thought the whole passive on ult was something that was supposed to "drive Zed to think about who he wanted to use his ult on". Now they're removing it? Also that W range buff though, damn....

I personally miss the AD increase per W rank. I liked maxing W instead of Q or E, but this feels like an overall buff. Sure he's losing about 50 AD late game, but the W increase will be good for all game lengths and that 10% increase on Q will really mean a 30% increase with all 3 shadows.

ok so basically riot planned to make the Zed mains "HAPPY" by giving these changes but turns out they take Zed r passive for these changes and now when they revert to the old changes they won't give us our r passive back ??? pathetic, so TLDR they did all these not make us Zed mains happy but to remove the Zed passive in a way we won't get made hmm. please fix this and nerf Vayne pls
