So that Zed change

Assassins Pre-Season Class Update - Systems Tweaks and Smaller Scale Updates

Now when Riot made the post about the smaller scale updates, one of the lucky assassins to be selected was our lovable assassin Zed

Zed Although an already solid part of the roster, Zed can be an overly generalist choice in the Assassin space due to his relatively safe early game and his effective Assassination tools. Outside of some tuning adjustments, we're looking for some interesting ways to make Zed think more carefully about the opposing team composition and in particular who he chooses to Death Mark throughout the game.

While the reworked Ultimate does seem to succeed in the "who to death mark" idea(not that the ult changes really change his target, he went for the ADC and will probably still go for the ADC), how does the ult change make a player think more carefully about picking Zed , especially when we play a game were the ADC is expected to always be in game?

Exactly my thoughts , they didn't address the " no bad team to pick zed into" and " no one really countrrs me so I blind pick " issues with any changes what so ever . Zed is still very hard to " destroy " in lane Zed still has xerath style mana less poke Zed still is very safe and farms from distance and under turret And zed still kills whoever he ults without much counterplay since qss changes and blinks back to safety.

Sounds like Zeds banrate gonna go back to that 80% area , cuz no one wants to deal with that shit
