Zed Discussion Zed in league classic
Saw no one posting about this. Zed was released in 2012 iirc, so it will probably be added?
Didn’t play league yet back then, would it be hype to get zed or was he dogwater when he came out?
I feel like he could be a lot stronger compared to modern league because of armor pen stacking and less overall mobility in the game.

Zed Discussion Does anyone else find Zhonya's unbelievably frustrating, or is it just me?
I stopped playing assassins around the end of Season 14 because I genuinely got tired of seeing the exact same thing every game. If the enemy had an AP champion capable of building Zhonya's, they'd almost always buy it second or third item (sometimes even first).
The thing is, I don't even think the item is that problematic during the first 15 minutes. You can play around it, punish bad usage, and the long cooldown actually matters.
It's after that where I think the item becomes incredibly frustrating.
Once teams start grouping, the value of Zhonya's goes through the roof. You finally find an angle onto a mage, they press one button, your combo is wasted, their team peels for them, and by the time the next teamfight happens... Zhonya's is back up again. The window where it's actually on cooldown feels tiny compared to how often major fights happen.
What frustrates me even more is when people who build the item say, "Zhonya's is actually a bad item." I understand where that comes from. Compared to other AP items, the stats and damage aren't amazing, so from a pure synergy perspective it might not be the most efficient purchase.
But I think that completely ignores what the item actually does to the enemy champion.
Sure, maybe you lose a bit of damage compared to another AP item. But against an AD assassin, you also deny their entire win condition. If you don't buy Zhonya's, maybe you deal more damage... but only if you survive long enough to use it. If you buy Zhonya's, you survive the burst, waste the assassin's cooldowns, force them out of the fight, and then get to keep dealing damage afterwards. When you factor that in, I struggle to see how the item is "weak."
I came back to Zed after almost two years, played my first game back (low Master EUW), and the enemy team ended the game with four Zhonya's. Three AP champions built it naturally, and even the Jax bought one as his third item. At that point I was genuinely asking myself, who am I actually supposed to kill in a teamfight?
The only time Zhonya's doesn't feel oppressive to me is when I have another assassin/dive champs on my team. They can only stasis one of us. If they use it on me, the other assassin/dive champ can still finish the kill. But when you're the only assassin/dive champ into three or four Zhonya's users, it honestly feels like you're constantly fighting against an item more than the champions themselves.
Am I overreacting here, or do other assassin/Zed players feel the same way?

Game Help how do I lane on this champ?
ive been inting my ass off trying to pick up zed d2-master because i absolutely cannot lane
like once we get out of lane and I get to sidelane and teamfight things are chill but i always end up dying once or twice in lane. ive started taking TP which helps but i feel like its so hard to farm because earlygame damage is so low so nobody has to respect you
any tips for surviving lane and getting to the insanely OP cyclosword+bastionbreaker spike?

Shitpost Any Zed mains that are also Black Panther mains on rivals? BP's aesthetics kinda reminded me of Zed. And the community sentiment really feels like he is the Zed of Rivals.

Game Help Queue matchmaking
I know this is not really zed related but im zed otp and the people here are very helpful so i’ll try
So basically i made a new account because i lost my other account. I leveled it up to 30 and started playing ranked. I did my 5 placements (4W 1L) where i pretty much stomped but still got placed in bronze 4. So i started my climb in bronze with a very good winrate (85+%) but after a couple of games only i started getting placed in platinum/high gold lobbies and sometimes emerald players. As a bronze.
My WR dropped to 59% as of now and i’m currently Silver 3, however the reason im making this post is because it doesnt seem like my MMR is « stabilizing » to my level, its literally increasing. This last game i was the ONLY person who was not emerald in the lobby. Everyone else’s rank was E4 and E3. With a silver imposter.
It’s kind of annoying because i peaked G4 like not even 2 weeks ago and i started the game in January, i feel like i don’t belong in these lobbies.
Does the system actually think i should be higher than silver/gold? Or is an amazing lose streak waiting for me to stabilize my MMR back to P-Low?
Any thoughts or help or knowledge is appreciated

Hi! I'm a new Spanish/English Streamer and Master 800 LP Zed top OTP (also climbed playing mid and jungle) and I want to get better at coaching, so I'm going to start offering free VOD Reviews on stream for anyone interested.
It doesn't matter what role or champion you play, I'll do my best to help with macro, laning, decision making, and matchups. I figured I'd post here since Zed is by far my strongest pick.
