I hate you. This atrocity needs to be deleted from the game.

Its true. This champ has no counterplay and snowballs really fast. The best strategy available to you most games is to have every team member avoid Zed like he has the plague. Just back away, wait it out. Push somewhere else, and spend your money on something better than riot points until balance issues are worked out.

No counter play? Really? item 3386 Fiora Orianna (skill match up but she's tough) Vladimir Swain Kayle Janna Lulu Ekko I mean there's a lot of shit I have trouble with, I'm not going to list them all. You get the point though. I've had my ass handed to me plenty of times. I'm not unstoppable nor always have good matches just because I pick Zed. Learn him, know him, counter him. If he pokes with W-E-Q, punish him. He uses so much energy and has a long cd on his W it leaves him vulnerable to ganks and poke in lane. Dodge his Q as well, that's a big portion of his damage output.

Zhonya's isn't much of a counter anymore since they nerfed the armor and the active cooldown. I've calculated it before. Zed can ult you twice in the timespan that the active is down, if he gets CDR in his build. Also, a lot of people don't like having to play a set few of champs just to counter ONE.

I forgot I didn't have Liss on this account, and last time I had played a Kayle against a Zed- he still wrecked me, but it was my fault thinking I could duel him, but he still was able to kill me even after I had ulted his ult. So I used Lux. He was still a nightmare.

I hate that god damn champ so much.

Building Zhonyas is a pain in the ass (for me as Zed). Now I need to make sure you're worn down before going all in otherwise my ult just gets negated. Plus my focus on you in team fights gets shifted unless I know for sure your Zhonyas is on CD or you got caught in a bad spot and we could still finish you off. But if I'm ahead, yeah Zhonyas isn't some magical item that will bring you back.

Of course you'd lose as Kayle if you thought you could just duel him (early anyway). Sounds like he got ahead so he probably didn't even need his ult to kill you anyway. Btw, Lux doesn't counter Zed so you should be losing that match up as well. You just need to learn how to play against him. I've lost to a Ziggs, Brand, Veigar, and others. Zed counters them, but they stayed patient and played safe until I made a mistake and got ganked by their jungler or got chunked one of their combos. Same way I've beat champs that counter me. It looks like you play a lot of support champs anyway, so you probably just aren't efficient in your mid gameplay overall. Don't get frustrated, he's VERY beatable. Like I said, dodge the Q and poke when you can ESPECIALLY when he just used his shadow. That thing has a long CD and with his W-E-Q combo it eats up a lot of his energy.

Lux should be able to counter that stupid fuck. I have played against him countless times, so don't tell me I need to "learn to play against him." That fucker still gets free get out of jail cards with his god damn ult and frustrating kit.

I play support more often than not because I win more- and I tend to be a really good one, not a crappy one. I do play mid a good bit, and am efficient in it. My previous account I had Lux, Morg, Annie, and more up as a level 7 mastery. Diana was my first one I got to level 5 when that was the highest rank you could go.

He wasn't even that far ahead but he still was able to kill me anyway, which was stupid. This fucking champion needs deletion from the game, period.

She is not very mobile and he could shadow through her spells, so she wouldn't be a counter. Since you've played against him numerous times, you should've figured out his moves and combos by now. I gave you advice, what you do with it is up to you. He has one combo for poking / all in. If he misses those Q's, his damage output is boned. Btw. mastery level is not an indicator to how good you are with a champ (or their match ups).

MysticDreams122 votes

I've seen his combos. I know what he does. Still doesn't change the fact that he's able to kill you even if you do everything right- flash, CC, Zhonyas, etc. He's a fucking atrocity in the game.

Yes, mastery is an indicator of how good you are with a champ. You have to get high enough scores to get the mastery levels, and that means you have to play well.

Whatever you say. Keep that negative attitude, you'll climb high.

MysticDreams122 votes

Keep being rude, you'll climb high.

And yes, Zed deserves deletion.

Ben SwoIo3 votes

No one's being rude, I just told you like it is. Too bad if your feelings got all hurt, but that's life. I gave you advice yet you keep complaining about a champ that is VERY beatable. So either whine and complain like a kid who got his candy taken away, or go fix your game play that will actually lead to progress in your matches.

Keep being rude, you'll climb high.

Plat is as high as I ever plan on going and I'm already there. I have no intention on grinding my way to Diamond, but thanks for your concern.

MysticDreams122 votes

Yup, you are being rude. You are calling me a child and attacking my gameplay. That's rude and mean.

This champ is not "VERY" beatable at all.

I don't need to fix my gameplay. All I need is Zed nerfs or a deletion from the game.

Ben SwoIo2 votes

I actually didn't call you a child and offered you constructive criticism, but you are obviously extremely sensitive which is typical of kids these days. I gave you solid advice coming from a Zed main, but you're more focused on just hating the champ you'd rather complain about it. Again, you could handle this two ways:

  1. complain and whine about it or
  2. focus on improving yourself in the match up.

You seem to be set on the former, so I'll just leave you with that. Enjoy.

MysticDreams121 votes

There you go again, insinuating that I'm a child. That's offensive. Reported.

That advice isn't solid because it barely works against that piece of shit. I don't need to improve myself. He needs nerfs, end of story.

I'm done with you.

Enjoy the ban, you deserve it.

I would like to point out that zed is a joke of a champ unless you have no idea what your doing and the enemy is a zed main then u just buy zhonyas and be passive

MysticDreams121 votes

Being passive in a game that you need to be aggressive is a joke. And Zhonyas? That isnt much of a counter item anymore since they nerfed the shit out of it. You can save yourself once, then he can ult you TWO MORE TIMES while the active is down. Is that counterplay? HELL NO!

No. I'm Silver.

I'm not being a baby, and stop that. It's rude.

Counterpicking isn't counterplay.

I could care less what you call it, I just added another option for someone who has been struggling against him.

lol, idk how long you have been playing.. but he used to be a LOT worse. like you have NO idea how bad he was if you weren't there for season and 4-6... he is actually fairly balance right now. which for Zed is quite amazing if you have had to face him as long as i did

i dont remember when exactly he got nerfed, (or rather which nerf finally fixed him being an issue. but it wasnt until season 7 (this season) that he finally was no longer "completely broken"

i mean I'm talking 80% ban rate mid season last year.. he was a freaking MONSTER

Calabok3 votes

yes i agree. nerf ZED

and BUFF BRAND FOR UNDEADS SAKE

Titanium703 votes

I feel ya... just lost a game since I made the mistake leaving Zed open with a mid that actually tried to fight him.

Later in the game he W-R on me - missed Q, missed E - flash - ONE AA, 2.4sE -> I'm dead.

MysticDreams122 votes

Just leaves you feeling awful, doesnt it? That he can miss two spells of his combo and still kill you.

Great balancing, Riot! NOT!
