I should have said prototypical CT Champ. I didn't mean that every CT champ fulfilled CT's style completely.

that said =P

"Yasuo and Zed are not item-dependent?"

tbh Yas and Zed get away with building cheaper damage items. ghostblade, bork and LW for zed; replace ghostblade with shiv for yas. The both of them get free stats, neither needs to build for mana, and Yas doesn't need to build CDR despite being heavily ability based.

"Zed and Darius are loaded with utility?"

Within-kit utility is not pure utility. Within-kit utility are kit benefits that cement a playstyle. Darius deals plenty of rainbow damage, posseses an execute, gets free armor penetration, and gets an AA reset all to promote a bruiser build that lets him build tank and still deal viable damage. CT will frequently give his champions plenty of tools to fulfill a particular role VERY well.
