"Nerfing Duskblade by 100 damage is goinna RUIN Zed!"

Onotori··6 votes·906 views

... yeah, one shotting people every time his ult is up is sure "weak."

It's also cool how he doesn't even need his Q to 100-0 someone, but you know, that's him being weak with Duskblade having 100 less damage.

Babyrage by some adc main who posts from his smurf so we don't rank shame him. elegiggle. Talk about Zed when adcs don't do burst per second.

I main mid and jungle, and I play mages, tanks and juggernauts. I only play ADC if I'm desperate, since it's a free win but boring as all hell.

When you try to turn every thread into adc hate circle jerk.

i don't have to try the game is dogshit and they are the only role that has fun besides a few cheesy junglers.

Build a Locket, get Exhaust, get Zhonyas, etc. Like there are so many counters to Zed these days. I haven't even seen a Zed this patch and he's been rarely banned out as well. I think it's safe to say that Zed is pretty much balanced or even pretty weak right now with his 48% winrate.

lemme clue you in bud

zed don't give a shit about a measly 120 armor... you need 300+ to do anything, and even then he's counterbuilding you stacking armor pen, so what you really should do is like pray and wish riot didn't let you stack like 90% armor reduction and shred.

also if you could counterbuild assassins with adc items. the literal class they were made to shut down, don't you think that would have been a TAAAAAAAAAAAAD unbalanced in your favor?

I dunno some bAbyDC main doesn't like us and brought his downvote bots so I guess we won that way.

Funny because the same can be said about you.

AmetDeCrypt2 votes

I'm downvoting my own comments and yours with bots? how's that work. I was making a slightly hyperbolic joke that a perfectly reasonable discussion about assassins and adc balance got mass flagged from whoever came through and just clicked downvote on all the posts here in one burst and then left in a huff.

Look I don't know dude, someone is downvoting all comments in this section. I thought it was you, sorry.

I had fun last game being one shot by zed who had a full armor penetration build item 3071 item 3036 and two lethality items.

I dodged his Q's when he ulted me but he AA me and E and boom 1900+ damage from his ult alone. Better buff zed am I right?

Keep in mind I had tabbies and GA, making me have around 120+ armor

Wish I taken a screenshot of his damage when I looked at death recap.

But then when you get hit by a full Syndra Zoe Anivia Katarina Akali combo and didn't buy a single MR item, it's broken. LUL

Do you think none of us have ever played the game before or something? What a massive load of shit

How much more delusional can you people get? Previously you stated that you had tabis and 120 armor +, which is false in both cases.

You dont even know the meaning of 1shot. He got 3 aas on you, one empowered by Duskblade, 2x e, his q and electrolute. Youre an adc in this scenario and alone. Do you seriously expect that you, as an adc, can 1v1 a full build assassin? Maybe you could if you actually had tabis. Literally any assassin in this scenario could have melted you, whether its fizz, talon, rango or akali.

Lets not forget that you almost 2 shot him. Your 2 autos dealt around 95% of his hp, yet you complain that youre weak and zed is in need of hard nerfs? Actually save me.

Every relatively high elo player will tell you, whether he plays zed or not, that zeds weak. Hes not being picked in high elo or pro play, wonder why, must be because hes so broken. LL Stylish aka best zed world says hes weak and cant play him in challenger. Wow, he must not know what hes talking about right? Even phreak said that those zed 'buffs' missed mark and were power neutral when you take into account duskblade nerfs.

Get real.

An ad assassin mid who can outpoke mages without having to care about ressources, and is also an all-in assassin while also being extremely safe. Guess he was beyond broken because of Duskblade

Onotori1 votes

He was only viable at all because of Duskblade! He was GARBAGE for the however many years he's been out.

Sure, Zed's ult is one of those "anti-fun" mechanics in the game, but other than that, Zed is really not that strong of a champion.

It could also be all the buffs he's gotten.

Onotori2 votes

... that's what I'm getting at. He doesn't need buffs, and didn't need buffs when Duskblade lost 100 damage, which is literally nothing.

If anything, he needs significant nerfs so that he actually has to LAND HIS ABILITIES to kill you.

Forbídden Blade1 votes

If he doesn't need to land his abilities to kill you, he must have snowballed and to do that he had to land his abilties. Trust me, I play zed a lot and his laning phase pre-6 is even weaker than in 8.5 right now. Your q does 30 damage at lvl 1 if it goes through minions... that's the poke we're talking about here. Also now his duskblade powerspike got axed as well. If you see a snowballing zed in 8.6 you can be sure he's pretty good at zed. A bad zed will not survive the average mid lane phase pre 6. Also if you're standing in a minion wave there's literally no way for him to do even half of his potential burst damage, that's how easy to counter he is. His wave clear got nerfed as well so he can effectively roam less.

I mean hes still #6 most banned champ at 32% over all games, but his win rate is like 48% in 8.6. Talon on the other hand is at 52% - 53%.

Every single time the word Zed is in a thread, it's a complaint. I'm just. Nobody cares. We get it by now.

zed never needed DB, not any assassin tbh, lol 100 less ad is insignificant to assassins.

shaco did, it's why they made his q do no damage.
