Actually, when determining whether a champion is hard or not, I don't really believe you can compare a champion in the hands of a higher or lower leveled player. For instance, bronze zed vs faker zed.. Of course it would be Faker. But the reason Faker would win is not cause of difficulty to use champion, it's the skill of the player themselves. Faker has better reactions, better knowledge of what his champion can do, better experience, better everything. A bronze player might be able to get Zed's combo off, but at a slower rate or less damage. A more experienced player better knows his limits. There is a big difference between a higher level Lee Sin and a lower level one. Positioning, knowing who and when to safeguard to, when to follow up on your Q, things like that. Let's say Faker has never played Syndra before (which we know he has though) and he picked her up for the first time, he would generally already be better than most Syndra players his first time using her. For safety's sake let's use Nidalee as an example. Throwing spears for days, easy. But still, Faker Nidalee>other Nidalees. Because a lower level player hasn't had as much experience in positioning, targeting, skillshots, etc., they generally will be bad on all champions not just one specific one.

tl;dr: You can't really determine easiness of a champion comparing higher/lower elos.
