Riot, any explanation?

@Meddler , @Ghostcrawler , @FeralPony , anyone, please share some info with us on the state of zed. Zed players would appreaciate this so much. And beside this - there is an obvious inconsistency (to a lot of us) it seems with animation canceling. Why would zed get ''fixed'' and not riven? Please clarify it for us.

He was benefiting from a broken mechanic giving him an absurd edge over others that actually have animations/cast times.

The mechanic was fixed.

Zed is still extremely easy and effective to play... not to mention he benefits massively from the new masteries. Your argument is nonsense. I have no sympathy for a character that was deriving power from a broken mechanic, having an already extremely frontloaded kit with ultra-low skill cap.

Third time you completely dodge the argument that decimated your first.

I'm going to say that's gg. Zed is not difficult to play, he is very forgiving and does not even have to worry about mana because he is blessed as a manaless champion... add to that his multiple escape mechanisms and extremely safe lane .... your argument turns to mush.

One bug fix on Zed is not unjustified, if anything he could stand to get a few direct nerfs even.
