Counterpick =/= counterplay

SymbolicFear2 votes

Not really, their is counterplay to counterplay.

The counterplay is in the way you play the counterpick or use the items that are meant to counter.

It's not as binary as you want it to be. At least with Zed. That's what makes him a well designed champion.

Zed is a Save Assassin, this is the opposite of "well designed" - sorry

Malzahar that's a nice shadow you've got there. It'd be a shame if you couldn't return to it.

Malzahar It'd be even worse if you returned to it, and then died anyway.

No one wants to counter pick these days. They all want their champs to be able to take on anyone and steamroll the game. That's why i can't wait for the 4 person que ups in solo que.

There won't be 5 man queues in solo, there's team for that. There will be 4 man queues, but that is the limit.

Kayle actually performs unfavorably in lane against Zed.

If you run Jungle Kayle, great, she absolutely destroys Zed. However, Kayle is one of these season 1 champions such as Annie and Xin Zhao that can beat anyone if she is ahead. If Kayle gets an advantage, she pretty much counters every other champion.

If you want a reliable Zed counter, Malzahar , Talon , and Fizz are the best options.

I agree 100% Kayle isnt the best of options. :)

This is a bad suggestion as Kayle is worthless till late game for the most part. Also, our champion pool shouldn't be limited to just one or two champions to deal with something Riot refuses to balance.

>Something Riot refuses to balance

They had to BUFF him because he's so terrible in the preseason AND THEY WOULD HAVE BUFFED HIM MORE if they didn't decide on making an item designed for his entire class.

Sorry kiddo, but I don't take any information given by champion mains like you. You guys are always feeling like your champ should be stronger, but he needs nerfs now. His buffs were way too much.

Zed's name being in my username has nothing to do with my level of knowledge of the game. I told you, the only reason they decided against buffing him further is because they are making an item for him.

If they weren't making an item for him, they would have buffed him more, because they made those buffs while already knowing that an item is coming for him.

I don't need to not have his name in my username to be able to use common sense. They are balancing him whether you want to believe it or not.

Yeah why listen to a guy who actually knows what he is talking about that's stupid we should ask nami mains about zed. Does the fact that riot had to buff him because he was so bad not register with you at all? Do you even realize this happened or are you just ignoring it?

SymbolicFear1 votes

Yeah, lets ask people who are way too biased about how strong their favorite champion should be.... that's also just such a great plan Sherlock.

Clearly that guy is biased just look at his rational arguments and the fact that riot did buff him because he was bad. Or is he just biased because he isnt agreeing with the circlejerk that wanted to nerf a 42% winrate champion? !00% sure it's the latter which is just sad.

Using common sense isnt something exclusive to a few of us you can do it to if you try.

You seriously think Zed was weak... Zed has always been stupid strong. He instantly wins at level 6... He has never been truly "weak" he was just not dominating as easily so they made it much easier AGAIN.

42% winrate =/= strong. Oh you are silver 4. Okay I understand. Not gonna bother continuing this one. Educate yourself because crying will not stop you from losing.

SymbolicFear1 votes

And you should educate yourself on how the ranked system works. To climb ranks, you actually need to play ranked.... AND winrate isn't the best indicator of a strong champion due to the difficulty to solo carry games nowadays.

I do not agree that Kayle is only a late game champion. Once she hits 6 with a couple o AtK speed boosts shes deadly tell the end.
