Buff Zed's living shadow to compensate for his recent ult nerf, or revert it.

Zed's a healthy assassin I thought? No, I know, but thats what you guys said. How do you say a champ is healthy and balanced then lay a fat nerf on him like that? He was already clunky as hell with the w nerf but now you have to wait a whole second before teleing back to ult shadow? Exhaust, zhonyas now DROPPED 300 gold, qss, etc. He has so much counter play, it's so hard to kill someone late game, and you still continue to nerf him. Why?

I want an answer Riot, I literally don't play any other assassins then Zed because I don't like smashing my head into the keyboard and kills; I'm being serious. I've played Akali like 10 times, and I've gone like 40/3, granted it was norms but that's not fun. Zed was a mechanically intensive, bad ass champ that used to swap through his shadows from the knowledge of the unforbidden. You turned him into a clunky version of his former self and it's honestly extremely sad to see.

P.S. And he still only has 1 skin.

As a Zed main, I agree and disagree at the same time. It's true, Zed in the last months was completely balanced, he had tons of counterplay unlike other champs. But the point is, the laning phase was frustrating to play against. Pre 6 and after 6, in the first 20 minutes, if you are playing zed he will put so much pressure that he will negate your farm, thanks to his good all in and the awesome poke for being an ad one. Riot just cut him down with that nerf, and if you really want to nerf his kill-pressure, put down some damage instead, because is really frustrating. It's true, like 2 months ago he could ult, do his combo, and ult again. But this was useful for killing an adc who's positioning his self bad, but in team fight, you will get insta-cc'd. Not mentiong the fact that he's not a good teamfighter, this is why he split push a lot. Sorry for the english btw.

all champs have strong points in the game. zed had a strong laning phase but fell off late. this nerfed the hell out of his kill potential in lane, and that's the time where zed's supposed to shine. with zhonyas at 3k and qss sittin at 1.2k zed's usefulness drops mid game, and hard
