Ideas for Zed Changes
With these changes, my goal was to make it more rewarding for Zed when landing his shadow abilities. Another change I made was one for convenience. The biggest change in my opinion is to his ult. His old W passive used to give more AD than his R passive does now (with the exception of facing a Jhin). I changed the passive to give him a bit more damage than his old W. I ran the number and it wasn't anything too absurd.
Changes Base Stats Base Magic Resist: 32.1 ⇒ 39
Contempt for the Weak No change.
Razor Shuriken NEW: Zed’s Shadow’s now do additional damage with shurikens hit. Zed’s damage remains the same. 90% of bonus attack damage ⇒ 110% of bonus attack damage
Living Shadow NEW: Zed’s Living Shadow now has an indicated active range ⇒ 1300
Shadow Slash NEW: For each champion hit with Shadow Slash by a shadow reduces the cooldown of Living Shadow by one second. Enemies hit by multiple shadows do not take additional damage but reduce the cooldown of Living Shadow by 2 seconds instead.
Death Mark REMOVED: Reaper of Shadows NEW: Zed now reaps the shadow of the foes slain under Death Mark, gaining 5% of the victim’s attack damage, stacking up to 100 total attack damage. NEW: If Zed kills an enemy with Death Mark, Razor Shuriken, Living Shadow, and Shadow Slash are reset and his energy is restored.
I'm working on a big rework for Zed as well, that will be coming soon, :)
