Zed at 46% winrate?

I know winrate doesn't mean "balanced" but he's not the hardest champ to use. Maybe one of the hardest to master shadow usage and outplays but... I did not expect his winrate to be so low.

Just looking for insight from someone that's more knowledgeable.

its usually people just picking him because hes "freelo op" and having no idea how to play him and losing. just because a champ is strong doesnt mean they are braindead easy to play you have to at least have some knowledge of how to play them

Everyone hopping on the zed bandwagon could make his winrate low, though I'm not sure what his pick rate actually is.

Hint: You should be far more afraid of Kat and Liss

Interestingly enough, I believe its a common trend to see these "Powerful" champs to have skewed win rates. Because its the "hard to master" aspect that skews their win rates...

I believe Riot is more interested in seeing a champion played to their fullest potential when making balance decisions because: "That is when the system itself gets put to the test when a champ is played to their fullest ability."

So you'll typically see champs like these only really overbearing or in need of tweaks based upon what they are like at the highest skill level... but since these champions are hard to play, many people will try and do sub par with them, affecting their win rates
