but the way zed works makes the person playing him look super high skill even when they are not. He litterally works like this, he hits R on you, he throws his W, Q and E, you get hit by the E dodge one of the two Qs flying at you, the other hits. He proceeds to auto you once and hit R again returning to his original postion. That Q, E and auto did enough damage to make his ult basically kill you, and then badaboom dusk blade pops finishing you off. the Zed then spams laugh as if he did something super high skill cap. The zed proceeds to lose the game because "his team was trash" even though we all know zed can't carry. TL:DR zeds a dumb champ that really doesn't take that much skill to assassinate a squishy but can't carry worth shit.

Except it's nowhere near that simple against any sort of competent player/team?

Even if you're a competent player, a competent zed will fuck you in the ass if you're alone, but no if you have good peel from a competent team you should be fine.

The fact that you said "makes the person playing him look super high skill even when they are not." Isn't entirely true, he may do some fancy tricks here and there but a "good" zed would keep on doing these "fancy tricks" throughout the whole game and play properly by roaming farming well etc. just cause one does a few "fancy tricks" here and there does not make them seem good, if you see it that way well m8 gg

No hate intended just saying what you are posting about isn't entirely true, there is also the fact that team comps come into place and zed doing that combo that you mentioned is ineffective if they dodge your q's, that's a waste of a w if he uses it cause they could just flash away etc.

That's like saying that all Leblanc does is some QREW and you're dead she takes no skill. Or that all Vayne does is tumble around while autoattacking you. All Aurelion Sol players just move around and hit you. Viktor just has to do some EQR AA and you're dead.

(They're called combos, and they aren't always that easy to perform.)

See, all these high skillcap champions don't seem so high skillcap now right? Zed actually has an incredibly high skillcap. He's an assassin, of course he's not going to carry. Zhonya's is an extremely hard counter to him, so is Exhaust or Barrier. Believe it or not, killing someone as Zed is harder than you think. You're a squishy melee champion that if you get hit by any skillshot in a teamfight you're pretty much dead.
