Can we give zed an actual weakness already

The idea of giving an assassin manaless waveclear was an idiotic concept and is the main reason why zed is completely overbearing when strong.

There are no drawbacks to playing zed. He either has the lane advantage and can constantly kill you in lane to get fed. Sitting back and trying to farm is not an option since he can poke you out of lane and zone you away with the threat of an all in. And when he hits 6 you can forget about even participating in lane since he can easily tower dive you, kill you, and than blink back safely.

But I guess that's fine since a lot of assassin mains are adament that being able to kill things easily is a core tenant of their design.

But than where is the risk? If by some miracle I manage to have a favourable lane matchup vs zed I cannot zone him. He can safely farm from far away with no mana restrictions. Furtheremore he waveclears extremely well. So the lane matchup dynamics is I either get annihilated and the zed snowballs or we settle for a stalemate where we go even in farm.

Thats asinine. If my best case scenario is I dont get steamrolled than you know theres a problem with a champion. Atleast when Im facing an akali or fizz I can zone them from cs if I get a lane advantage. If your going to pick an assassin and have the ability to obliterate champions instantaneously than you should be high risk and high reward.

Zed is low risk and high reward. He has so many tools in his kit that allows him to stay relevant in a game while also being overbearing if ahead. Give him some actual weaknesses so that theres an actual decision towards when you should pick zed. He should be a flex pick that excels in certain matchups. Right now its just auto pick him and proceed to dominate because your kit happens to be so forgiving for someone with his play making potential
