After 150k points, I find Zaahen to be the most awkward top laner ever released

I'm a Diamond/Masters top lane player, it's the only lane I've played since season 6 and whenever there's a new champion or a rework for top lane, I try to play at least a couple dozen games on them.

I've never played a more awkward melee top laner than Zaahen.

He is the only melee top laner who feels shit in a 1v1. This is a lane that focuses on duels so being a bad duelist+good teamfighter can only work if you're ranged and can poke the enemy down or just survive the lane, like Kennen.

But even in a teamfight, Zaahen is not that great. Top laners with much, much better 1v1s also feel much better in a skirmish or a teamfight (Gwen, Illaoi, Sett for example).

Also, Zaahen lacks a lot of QoL changes. The awkward delay before Q1 and Q2, the ridiculously long cool down of his Q early, the Q2 timer running out during his revive...

Statistics don't show he's particularly weak which means he only FEELS bad. Imo the gap between his early game dueling potential and his teamfight potency should be lowered. Make his Q cooldown start after using Q1, not Q2. Make his E outer edge apply 2 passive stacks, in return make it not apply multiple stacks vs multiple opponents.

I love this champion thematically but he needs work.

Hello! I recently built my first simracing rig and bought Assetto Corsa. I'm having fun but the amount of cars in the base game is too small for my liking. I planned to download car mods, but on every mod setup guide, people say that Pure is necessary. Why is a weather mod necessary at all?
