No PBE changes for zed, Aurelion sol nerfed again despite 1.1% play ratio

DropFill·May 18, 2016·3 votes·929 views

Zed maintains a 78% BAN RATIO ( WHICH , YOU KNOW, SHOWS SOMETHING!), a 9% play ratio, while aurelion sol has a 1.1% play ratio and a 1.46% ban ratio.

Clearly this shows that Aurelion sol > Zed for SURE. Aurelion sol has CLEAR weakness where you as a player yourself can handle. Zed requires the game to pass of 25min in order for YOUR TEAM AS A WHOLE to be able to do something about him. You will get destroyed in lane by a assassin that can poke better than most mages, doesn't have to care about spamming abilities, and can farm under turret at any given moment because of his passive.

Common riot, if this is not favoritism to you, I don't know what this is.

I believe people are banning him because he's still an absolute cancer to play against as ever.

He ruins all the fun.

Stop downvoting this man. He's right. Zed is a gigantic problem, and the people who abuse him to climb ranks are scum. Riot must be blind, or afraid of alienating a large installed playerbase in Zed, because no effort is being made to fix him or any of the other instant targeted gap closer assassins who outclass everyone else in mid.

play rate=/power. a champ can be picked once every 1k games and still be an overpowered champ. Im fine with the Sol nerfs, playing againts him once he gets rylais is just fuckin toxic

As what? ANYONE who can get anywhere close to him and lock him down ( AKA champions with mobility ) Just shit in him hard. There is simply no data at all to say he deserves any nerf. Doubling his W cd at higher levels is just stupid.

You mean champs like Shen, Ezreal, Kindred, Zed, Fizz, Irelia, and LB?

His ban rate is extremely high because people don't want to take the risk of letting him through the banning phase with the QSS changes. Zed is an absolute monster when ahead, and nigh useless for most of the game when behind. People don't want to take the risk of facing a Zed that knows what they're doing.

Then again, I too highly disagree with the Sol nerfs, but meh.

Zed only gets behind if : 1- He gets camped ( which is hard because of his W ) or 2 - If he sucks balls

Honestly people are just banning Zed mostly because they hate playing against him or can't properly gauge his power, people think he's stronger than he is

Sorry, but can you tell me any mage that actually win lane against him? Can't think of any. Zed can exploit extremely easily any weakness a mage may have, or even be able to create it himself because of his R untargetability
