Why Riot should leave zed alone( no nerf or buff)

Chaos of Unseen··3 votes·670 views

I heard people complaining about zed and his early game, then how about cassiopeia who has a frightening late game and how about jax. Zed's early to mid game is when he shines and if he gets nerfed early game and does nothing early game his already not so good late game scaling would be worse because he would have few kills and golds and items.

Maybe it is a trend to nerf assassins. People think their damage is op. Well, read the definition of assassin. They don't have consistent damage. They need burst damage after looking for chance. Zed is not like garen or darius or master yi. He has long ultimate cooldown and he needs to wait for a chance to use his ultimate at right time and burst enemies early game to be more useful late game. By the way, he already has so many counters late game like qss or zhonyas. So, that is why zed doesn't need nerf early game. If this trend of nerfing assassin continues like what happened to talon, they are gonna be bad. They do not have CONSISTENT DAMAGE LIKE DARIUS OR GAREN!!!!!!!!!

IF U R GONNA NERF HIS EARLY GAME, BUFF HIS LATE GAME OR SOMETHING!

They are also supposed to be weak outside of their big moment when they burst someone. Well guess what, Zed isn't.

It's not that he isn't weak. Hell his pre-6 ain't too pretty but his passive + ranged damage ability that gets even bigger as he reaches level 2 means that he can farm from a long way away from creeps keeping him out of range of most mages. Not to mention the fact that hexdrinker is so strong right now that all he has to do is back at 6 buy a hex and he will kill any mage he faces despite them having cc.

Here is why he needs serious nerfs:

He scales too well with kills, which he gets too easily due to his early-midgame power

Then how about viegar or cass in late game? And he is a early game champion like how other champion has amazing late game.

look you're a fucking idiot dont even try to hide the fact that you're a zed main it's obvious you are accept the fact that your favorite champion is too strong and just fucking leave it

the reason i hate playing against zed is because now he barely has to put in any effort at all for kills now. if i have 70% hp (assuming i am someone who is like lvl 10 and like 1200 max hp) and he ults me, hits me with like 1 q and e, and then autos me, and he has a duskblade, then im dead lol.

Zed got nerf becuz the new item is completly broken and the immobile mages meta give him free kills cuz he is an assasin that can dodge sorts ezly and one shot . I remember in s5 it was one of the less played champ in the all game . He is still strong after his nerf , it just slows his possibilities to go in poke enemy hard and escape when gank with shadow . He has to do a choice , ward place an agressive shadow when you know jungle isnt next to your lane , or keep it safely and farm . Roam often after 6 and it is ok he keeps his utility , just he has to take some decisions now instead of spaming shadow . Im an actual Zed main and I understand his nerf completly .
