What do you guys think is the best lane for Zed?

So far I've played mid/top/jung. He seems ok top, somewhat safe but certain matchups are a pain. Mid seems fairly dominant. Jungle seems above average, good clears and strong ganks post 6.

Also, why don't I see Swain more? He seems pretty solid mid lane, espec. vs Kat/Diana.

He also levels melee champions top. Its pretty one sided.

I feel like he is slightly overtuned at the moment personally... but I;ve always had issues with Swain.

I was reading Chausters AMA and he spoke about the AP carries with highest skill ceiling as Cass/Anivia/Veigar. Now we see Anivia a lot and Veigar seems to pop up every now and then(In tournies and Solo Q) but Cass seems to have completely vanished. Why exactly is this? From my understanding she battles vs high mobility and with the mobility creep it's hurt her but i don't know if this is correct or the full picture. Also dam a lot of Syndra lately.

well the conventional answer is "nothing happened to her people just pick other heroes now because that's the flow of champ popularity." better answer would be, well, we should ask them, that might be true but it also might be some other subtle reason that's lost on us solo queue newbs, theorycrafters, etc. a lot of good tournament players spent a lot of time practicing that hero, I'm suspicious of the idea they threw her away without a specific reason

Yeah donations and partnership first day of streaming.... definitely pre-planned. He even name changed 2 days ago from Plumber. The OP says he looked up "잘 못" after that game yet he was named Plumber then. DUN DUN DUN PLOTHOLE.

At the pro level I think it's because she doesn't bring anything that other AP's can't apart from ludicrous single target damage, and counter-initiation potential, and even then only against certain comps. Mobility creep definitely hurts in that regard. Against stuff like mundo, udyr, skarner and a host of top laner's, she reigns supreme. But now that teams are very good at drafting either comps with good initiate(amumu/malph), poke and/or dive(double assassin, etc.) she fares poorly due to her not really having burst damage. Other AP's can bring "enough" damage while bringing utility.

1. Pro has a good showing with a champion.
2. All the other pro's assume it must be OP and run that champ everywhere.
3. Must run new flavour champion in solo-queue or else team will rage for trolling.
4. Now everyone is most practised with flavour of the month champion so gets an artificial power boost.
5. Wait 'till some pro has a good showing with next champ and repeat.

6. ...........[proper metagame never appeared].
Only the weak link is strong enough to break the chain.
