I'm so tired of this champion being played every single game and going legendary many times over every time. Why is it okay that he has no counter, no way to gank him, no drawbacks of any kind, and it's all fine.

The ignorance in this thread is hilarious. Mostly Zed mains defending their ability to roll their face across the keyboard and get free wins.

I usually see zed get really far behind if he cant 1v1 who hes facing. Other then that, he pretty much steamroles if he can hit you every time. Missing his q is bad.

His most obvious counters: item 3157 item 1029 Bard summoner 21

There are other counters which involve champions with dashes to juke his abilities when ulting with the likes of Katarina and Ekko Leblanc

In terms of ganking... I wait for him to use his w which gives me a large window to gank. Without his w he is just another immobile squishy assassin

Yes. Riot will definitely nerf a champion because you suck at this game.

You could either ban him, or try playing against him. I am not sure on your role but if you are mid, take exhaust. Build an hourglass early and take the free stop watch. Every time I play mid into him I have to adjust my play style, and I still hate him, but I do not think he is "Broken."

They can't Stylish Literally stopped playing Zed yesterday and almost cried because of " how useless he thinks Zed is " If anything they'd even buff him more

he has no counter

Actually, Garen counters him very, very hard in lane during the early game. Zed is still a melee champion who needs to come up to the wave to take the majority of his CS. That's Garen's cue to bang him very hard with Q and/or E, W through any shuriken hits or shadow damage, and then heal it all up with his passive while Zed has no in-kit heals at all.

In general, Zed is pretty bad against tanks and juggernauts generally, like most champions who are one-trick damage artists without any lane sustain. Take some toplaners generally against him the next time you go mid; Darius Maokai Illaoi Renekton Tryndamere Yorick Malphite Nasus all have the innate tankiness and close-up damage tools to survive and/or win trades, but Garen really has the tools to stick it to ol' shadow butt, and if you get far enough ahead your team won't mind at all that you're on an off-meta tank instead of a mage or assassin.

Zed is not currently viable at the competitive level and is at best a tier 3 champion. If anything he needs slight buffs, a good fix would be to give him a form of hard CC either on his passive, making his autos stun or when multiple abilities land.
