I used to love Zed

Now I can't fucking stand that champ. Just seems like ANYONE can pick him up and use him with success. I just lost to a Zed who missed damn near ALL his Q's but was still able to "execute" by clicking R with a couple autos and E. Where the fuck is the skill in that? I used to LOVE landing combos and being rewarded for it. If I missed, I knew I fucked up and would die or be vulnerable since I didn't have ult pressure anymore.

Now it just seems like they take a little bit of your HP, all in you and BOOM dead. Why is this allowed? Why don't they have it so he NEEDS to land those skill shots? It makes no sense to be able to just derp R E AA you're dead.

Think you're just upset that you got smashed by one last game and that you should calm down before making salt posts

I didn't get smashed. He couldn't land any skill shots for shit, which is the reason behind my post. What's the point of dodging all his shit only to be deleted with R-E-AA? I don't care if you're pro Zed or not, that shit just isn't right. You miss, you don't get rewarded, period.

You know this isn't true. Otherwise you wouldn't have a 29% winrate on zed this season if you could mash buttons blindfolded and still win. Not bringing the winrate up to flame or anything, just to point out you know damn well that's not how it works. What you're doing is taking an example of what happened after he was exxxtrreeemmeeelllyyy fed and presenting it as that's how he normally works

I was picking Zed regardless of the comp, so that stat isn't accurate as to how I play with Zed. You and everyone else need to quit hanging on to win rates like it's the holy grail. There's variables involved.
He wasn't extreeemmmmmeeeellllyy fed. Like I stated in my post, I was dodging everything in lane. He couldn't land shit, and I honestly thought he was low gold / silver tier. He got fed when his team started dominating my other laners, which snowballed over to him. But the stats don't show that. Again, quit hanging onto stats like they're the holy grail.

You won 11/38 games. That is not because bad luck or shitty comps. That is because you are not good with Zed. If Zed was legitemately braindead OP, comp would hardly matter. Zed is just harder to learn than you want to admit.
Post the gameplay with the times he oneshot and missed everything.

I'm no good with Zed? Funny cause he got me to plat pretty easily. You should check yourself before you try telling people if they're any good or not.

How far did you get? Looks like you got to a mighty Silver 2. 103 games with Zed and you got to Silver 2. Damn, enlighten me on how to play Zed please.

Weird cause he's been virtually the same champion since he was released. People have been complaining about him since the beginning of time. He's an assassin who gets a bulk of his damage from his ult and followup, that hasn't changed. He one shotted ADCs 5 years ago and he one shots them now. I don't get why you think he's so different because he's not.

It's not healthy or skillful when someone tries to all in, misses their Q's but gets the kill anyway. That should NOT happen unless they are extremely low hp. I honestly feel he's in the same toxic champ pool as Yasuo now.
