We mentioned Zed as a good example of what we refer to as a "Healthy Assassin" Zed's pattern of poking from a distance and waiting for the moment to strike is layered with counterplay and complexity

Patch notes, y u do dis?

I'm so confused. He is the definition of not healthy. He has insane damage, crazy wave clear, and is one of the safest champs. Combine this with Hexdrinker and mana nerfs to every single mana champ, and you get the permaban that is Zed. Yes, permaban definitely means a champ is in a "healthy" state.

Zed wasn't even that strong in my opinion until you completely shit on mana. Now he gets to trade like crazy while the enemy's only counter play is to dodge since they are going to be out of mana. Honestly, I am struggling to think of a bad aspect of Zed's game. Stop worrying so much about your #LCSBIGPLAYS please.

And honestly, Zed isn't even that big of a deal for me since I just pick Fiddles, it is pretty much a skill matchup from there. But with him being permabanned, how the hell can you say he is what you think of as a healthy assassin? He is about as health as your other #LCSBIGPLAY champs, Thresh, Lee, J4.

I literally can't get over "layed with counterplay and complexity. He is about as complex as Ryze. Throw out your shadow and Q/E. Repeat until opponent is low and hiding behind turret. Hit R+AA+E + escape = kill.

How in the Hell is this complex lol?

And about his counterplay?

Try to farm? Nope. Get harassed. Try to push? Nope. Can't push that waveclear. Try to dive? Nope. Shadow away. Try to play safe and farm by turret? Nope. Chunk you down with poke and then press R. Try to camp with jungler? Nope. Shadow away.

Remember rito, your champs are supposed to be fun to play and** fun to play against.**

Oh, lets not forget that you have to rush Zhonyas if you don't want to die to his ult. It really helps you since he can just do another rotation in about 3 seconds. So, you didn't die but you still have to leave lane anyway.

Also, since you had to rush Zhonyas to delay your death by a couple of seconds, you are royally fucked because you couldn't buy your mana regain/CD item. Have fun lanning against a spammy poke/crazy wave clear champ with no resources and short CDs with your long CD shitty mana regain nerfed champ. GG rito. The intelligence is strong with you.
