Nah it's just that there are the other assassin items now. They didn't exist back then when Blade on Zed was popular. Also there's hardly a time you will want to get it, because mostly you will have an AP midlaner and thus you want to build Hexdrinker or Edge of Night, dependant on the damage he does to you, then you want Yomuu's for roaming and Duskblade for more burst and flanking. Death's Dance gives you sustain and for the beefier targets you can go Last Whisper or Black Cleaver. There isn't really a reason to buy Blade. It was only good because its active and the passive damage was counted ino the ult, but the ult damage was nerfed and you will try not to rely on it too much, so Blade isn't that appealing anymore.
