A pretty good Zed fix (a Zed main opinion)
I'm a Zed main and I truly understand that Zed is annoying to lane against. SO before I say my fix, we need to talk about why Zed is annoying. Here are the reasons;
1: He has range, lot's of range.
Zed can poke an enemy in lane from afar without getting hurt. The recetn changes that Rito did were good on balancing that so I do think it isn't that big of a deal now. If he lands both his Q's than it deals damage, if not, than it doesn't as much.
2: There are no more AD items that can counter him.
This is a big deal because it looks lke adc's can not even defend themselves against a Zed. I he gets you down to half you and has the Duskblade proc and Death Mark proc and Thunderlord's than it is over for the ADC. I understand that feeling and it digusts me. But this is what Zed mains are going to say, "Your tank should peel for you." And it is true, your tank should peel for you, and if he is not than it is his fault. You might say, "He is so slippery". Yes, but all assassins are and it is then the kit of an assassin that you should be worried about not Zed. Back to the Items, QSS being nerfed and all is quite stupid. Now I have two FIXES FOR THIS>1: QSS by itself only removes CC, but the upgraded version like
or
removes CC and Debuffs. 2: Remember this Spell?
Yeah I forgot about that too, Cleanse should be able to remove CC and Debuffs like Zed's ult. BUT DON"T DO IT together. Or else there is no point in getting Cleanse if upgraded QSS does the job.
3: His Outplay potential.
Yes, it is very high, and that is what makes Zed Zed. You have to think smart, and personally I play Zed so much I can predict what a Zed is about to do. SO this isn't a problem.
4: His laugh.
I think it's BADASS, but it is quite an asshole laugh, depending on the player, (which most Zed's are for some reason).
5: His shadow is always up.
Rito made pretty good changes to where it has a 20 second CD and there is now more breathing room. So your arguement is invalid.
So here is my fix to a pretty simple problem that will help in the laning phase and in team fights too.
Let's take Azir.
: Hello!
His soldiers show with an effect when they are about to disappear. [(https://33.media.tumblr.com/f8bfe0afd3d1387b9cfaa65d9a244d88/tumblr_inline_ndtnlrDL4C1t1wkua.gif)] (The guy on the left)
Yes, this gives me a visual aid and one to my opponent. Everybody is happy.
Yes, this should be added onto Zed's shadows to give a more friendly suggestion to Zed and his opponent. It would make Problems; 1, 3, and 5 less annoying without removing the fun and skill.
So thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed. PEACE! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
