I see a lot of hateful comments for zed when in reality his early game is pretty bad. And honestly yas and talon do way more damage and have more team fight potential in any stage of the game if your talking skill level talon and yas are harder to play than zed so low Elo zed is stronger but overal a talon ult and cut throat combo alone can kill an adc or Mage while damaging a team yas can lay huge cc and damage with his knock up or any ally knock up and ganking a yas is harder than zed he deflects any projectiles and just slides through minons or champs while spamming his q and talon just Ults to get away or burst his opposing squishy champ leaving him with a kill and a 1 v 1 against the jungle... Zed is strong but there are way better ad assassin

Zed = stronger more mobile version of Talon . Question everyone should be asking is: do I want to be able to easily outplay people with a ridiculously strong kit or do I want a challenge? If you want to play a champ that actually requires good positioning play Talon . If you want to play a champ who has limitless reactionary potential to enemy ganks and aggressive plays then play Zed .

You do realize talon does more damage than zed. So what if he has more mobility

Remember when Ahri was an assassin and her charm had a 20% amp? They removed that with DFG almost halving her damage, and gave her more mobility to compensate.

Her winrate jumped from 50% to 57% almost instantly, and now they're nerfing her damage even more because of it.

So yes, mobility makes a huge difference.

Also the semi-nerf scared away a lot of Ahri players. The ones who stayed actually understand how to play her and are probably loving the changes. A huge part of the win rate is going to be how familiar you are with a champion. If you know the plays you can make and what might counter you, you will win more than you lose.

And of course, many players used to facing the old Ahri are going surprised and how her gameplay changed. I expect that her win rate will start drifting downward in a day or two as both more people pick her back up and the meta figures out how her gameplay has changed.
