except that at solo top, his range is greater than their gap closer, and despite his squishiness, he hits even harder at melee range. He does fine in solo top, even against gap closers. Though sustainers are hard to beat out of lane, that's how they are designed in general, and Zed does well despite that due to his energy system and harass.

However, I feel as though they should do something about shadow slash. There doesn't seem to be much reward for combining the two shadow slashes at the same time, and that's just to maintain his combo. Sure he gets a stronger slow, but it's only a better slow than his single shadow slash, and that can be done with ease. Riot's gotta put in incentive for people to combine the shadow slashes, or else he'll be sad.

I'm sure Rapacious will say that he attains the double shadow slash easily with his ult, but that's with his ult. To attain a better chance of getting a better slow, I need an ult?

Zed already has durability problems. Either give him something when he uses his ult other than just damage amp, or make the double slash something stronger than just a slow that other champions can attain much easier.
