Tips Against Zac in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Tchouvline says “Zac's kinda annoying with his R and E who can cancel your W but on early game you'll be safe on your jungle. Late game Zac is annoying, i recommand you going through a Liandry's Torment”
Doubtfull says “Zac will usually start red and full clear to blue side. He likes to get low on his clear, and you can take advantage of this by full clearing your red side and then invading him at his wolves. Keep in mind lane priorities, and that they can teleport to his blobs to make him invulnerable. If they do this, he will still be one auto attack away from death, so you might be able to still kill him and get away. ”
PsiGuard says “You can all-in him early, but once he has some armor he's much harder to fight. Use ult to countergank him or snowball elsewhere. Zac players often like ganking mid.”
Ellesmere says “The blob is quite annoying since he jumps all over the place and you have to kill him twice. BUT, if you hold your stun til right before he tries to jump away, you'll stop his escape and you should kill him 1v1.”
Tinjus says “You should be able to fight him with no problem, although it can be a bit harder if he gets the jump on you with E. He poses quite a threat in teamfights due to his disruption so try and stay away from him while he is using his ultimate.”
Maintained says “While Zac is unable to kill you, it will be very difficult for you to do much to his allies when he is around. He has enough crowd control and disruption that you are unable to stick to his allies and get off free ults. ”
EUWRATS says “Dodge his E to not get chained cc'd and make sure to focus the carries instead of tank zac because he can regen quickly, a good buy is executioners calling”
Doubtfull says “Use your movespeed to avoid getting caught by Zac e's. Use your early game strength to invade the Zac if you have the lane priority for it. He is weak until level 6.”
Doubtfull says “This is a harder match up because Zac can easily get ontop of you and ruin your positioning. You also don't have the damage to kill him yourself. Be careful not to get caught out by his E and consider invading his blue before first scuttle.”
Suseri says “Just annoying. Dodge his stuff either with your Q or your high MMS. Can be hard to kill, go for easier targets. If he is in his Passive try to hit the parts ones let them get closer together and use your Q to hit all of them at ones, you can also use Smite, don't Q if there are alot of minions around cuz it'll delay your time u got to kill him.”
ak521 says “Flinggg. Eatttt. Bounceee. Not a threat to you or your adc, he will never deal that much damage, just don't toss your bandage early. Strong in ganks and it may not be worth following, gank a diff lane at the same time. He's strong in team fights and has a ton of CC/peel so be aware of that, he's not exactly your job to deal with when it comes to fights.”
Smartest2 says “Zac is relatively easy to deal with. Unfortunately for him our w takes off a large chunk of his armor and we deal %health damage on every 3rd ability/auto. He may be able to apply more early game pressure, but he is also extremely susceptible to counter ganks. See if your teammate is in a position to back you up and take him out. His jump has a high cooldown, and by the time it's back up we can use our q to disrupt it.”
PulseBeat_02 says “You can black shield his ultimate and his grab (Q), but that's not the hard part. You need to make sure to use your black shield wisely here, because it is only available for a limited amount of time. Because Zac is a tank, definitely build Liandry's.”
Doubtfull says “Zac has 3 different ways to interrupt you post 6, builds MR VERY efficiently, and is all around a rough match up. He more than likely won't invade you early game though, which gives you a chance to scale up and get your lanes ahead.”
Arfreezy says “Among the tank junglers, Zac is one of the weakest early and can easily get bullied and pressured. Ignite and Phase Rush will help you bully him early and you can control both rivers and deny a lot of pressure from him since he can't ever 1v1 you. Look to use lane priorities to constantly invade him and put pressure to prevent his free farm and scaling which also helps your laners since they will know where he is and won't have to worry about ganks. He has a big level 6 powerspike, but by then you should be well ahead in exp, gold, or map pressure.”
metalhydra273 says “Zac is beefy but after his cc is gone you can punish him for jumping in. It can sometimes be worth ulting him to limit his survivability as letting him pick up droplets can make him last way longer than he should. You can even punish him before he goes in by ulting him out of his e, but this is situation. It can also sometimes be best to interrupt his team from following up so situational decision making is key here.”
uSgSello says “Losing matchup.
It is hard to counter jungle a Zac because he has a lot of sustain. Also if you will get him into his passive you can't kill him many times because his team rotate fast. That is why you should not waste time in his jungle. Zac has very strong counter ganks and has a high damage output.”
KamiKZ says “This match up is Graves favored. You should be able to always fight Zac at all stages of the game because he is just a tank with a little bit of cc and pretty much got no cc. Try to invade him early and contest some of his camps. Respect his cc though and respect priority on lanes since this might be the difference between surviving and doing a succesfull invade or dieing and giving the enemy team a free kill.”
Stratogos says “He is tanky af but not problem in terms of DMG. Dont start a fight if he is not in it cause he will jump in and ruin everythink.He needs help for objectives so if you have vision you can get an easy drake early ”
FREAKSTAR says “Zac is extremely powerful right now, but he has 1 problem. His early game is weak, that plays perfectly into what you want.
In other words Zac can't stop you from scaling, so this becomes a SKILL matchup.”
AST Raposo says “He has more dificulty than you to clean jungle and don't have potential to kill you early game
probably the best matchup in jungle for you, But you should know he makes more than you for teamfights,so be careful.”
Gumipapucs says “He can F your ganks up big time, but you can do that to him too. He is somewhat weak early and has a slow clear speed so you can abuse that but watch out as his blobs take forever to kill. You can smite a blob and instantly kill it, but otherwise he might just survive long enough to get help from his teammates. His presence is a good reason to buy a BotRK/Cleaver/Bloodrazor. You can dodge all his abilities and kite him to death, but he can become a real problem if he gets somewhat ahead so try to prevent his ganks, and force him into farming the jungle, which you will steal anyways. His clear speed gets much faster if gets a bami's cinder / complete JG item. He straight up sux at taking objectives, he needs help, so you can sneak 1 or 2 early drakes.”
IMissedMyQ says “Zac is not as much a problem as other junglers since she can deal with his E quite easily. Cocoon or Rappel works to counter it nicely.”
ChaseMorePlz says “Interrupt his slingshot when he charges it up your Bandage toss. Step on his green blobs when he attacks and aim to stun him when he burns his engage abilities. Rush Liandry's Tourment to hard counter him as soon as possible and track him in the jungle. ”
ChaseMorePlz says “Be careful against this matchup, he has strong counter ganks. Kha'zix has an average 43.65% win rate while facing Zac in solo queue. ”
CaptianMike says “Difficult to kill and has better ganks than you do. Make sure you ward his camps so you can warn your teammates of his ganks! It is pretty useless to fight him because he is tanky and has escapes.”
Loul_60 says “Personally I hate Zac. It's easy for him to gank, he's almost impossible to kill if you don't go Red form as you have no hard CC to cancel his slingshot (though you can ult him to follow him which is fun). In the mid-game though, you should be able to beat him regardless of form.”
Rhoku says “He has a LOT of CC. Thankfully, no way to beat you. If caught alone, he is dead. No questions asked. You can also cancel his slingshot with your E so look forward to watching him think he can get away, only for you to pull him back in and kill him.”
chevy the sloot says “Pretty annoying scaling tank that feels unkillable mid to late. His ganks are pretty braindead so ask your team to respect them. He's quote on quote weak but his ganks and free scaling are just too op into Eve.”
Wolf Rengar says “Recommended: Conqueror Rune Page/Build.
Tips: Invade in early , track his pathing and make sure to tell your laners about it.
Zac is not a bad matchup because when he fails early or you get ahead he becomes a free kill but you can't let him perma gank your laners.”
Kindredgarten says “He gets tanky but is not a threat early. Be careful about ulting, you can save his blobs unintentionally. Invade him a lot, you can dodge all of his abilities with your dash as well.”
waayWest says “Doesn't have a lot of kill potential of his own, and he will most of the time run away from you with his E anyways. It depends on the team how it goes.”
Get Ricked says “Zac is terrible in a 1v1 so you will win that troughout the entire game, however in 2v2 and skirmishes he can offer a lot of cc and offer his team the opportunity to kill you so watch out for that. He clears slow and not that healthy so try to invade him when you have the chance and kill him.”
colingogo says “Most tanks let you freescale really easily but Zac does a good job denying you in mid/lategame fights with his obnoxious kit. Do not fight him without your ultimate.”
Veralion says “Zac is there to enable his team, not to do anything himself. He doesn't do much damage but brings a crapton of control and disruption to the table. Without any hard CC you can't stop him from jumping away, so chasing after him is a waste of time. If you meet over a crab, just focus on securing it and go about your business. He can very easily countergank mid, so be careful when making a play in that lane. Save your smite to bop a bloblet once you and your team bring him down. Bonus points for being cheeky and saving it for the last one to "secure" it. You're a dragon, you deserve it! Failing that, if your E is coming up, hold it until the blobs group up and hit them all at once. With careful timing, a Zac may use his E to jump clear over objective pits and smite steal as he passes by. Don't let that happen to you. ”
DarkAuraLOL says “Easy, you outclear him, you can 1v1 him early in jungle, spot him on map , ping your team, counter gank him , get ahea d of him, get mortal reminder and form and you're fine .”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Zacis very strong right now, but he is still very weak in the early game. Try to invade him if you can and take as much of his camps as possible. If he falls behind he will take a very long time before he gets really tanky. ”
G Spot God says “Last but not least is Zac. He's pretty good and is very annoying but like with most tanks, you can shit on him and outscale him hard. Cool tip, when he's slingshotting in, you can ult him.”
DjapeFromSerbia says “Not only he's tanky but just amount of the peel for carries he can offer is insane. Even though early game he won't gank just like you, he can gank more reliably in transition early to mid game.”
MetaSolaray says “His damage late game scales very well and his ganks are very strong. Make sure to bring tenacity and try to catch him attempting to get to ganks. HIs ability to fight you early and escape once he E's is very weak. Force objectives as he can't whenever he ganks especially if he's on the opposite side of the objective.”
DarkAuraLOL says “Easy, you outclear him, you can 1v1 him early in jungle, spot him on map , ping your team, counter gank him , get ahea d of him, get mortal reminder and form and you're fine .”
RedNBlue says “Lastly Zac of course I think it is so lets get on with this . His early game isn't too strong(Zac) so you can really mess him up. Its like picking Nasus into Renekton. Just don't let him get too tanky on you so keep killing him if you do it once.”
KaynPlayer814 says “You both AFK farm in the early game but he can beat you in 1v1s because he has some cc. You also have a faster clear then him. You just want to get RedKayn asap and he wont have a chance against you.”
RedNBlue says “Very easy to kill earlier in the game, his first clear is very slow and annoying and you can easily invade his Jungle and kill him. Obviously watch out for the middle laner plus any other threats.”
liserith says “Zac cannot duel you at any point in the game. Killing him early is a bit annoying however, thanks to his passive. Make sure to ward properly and ping wherever you last saw him, as his ganking is his only problem. Don't use your Q when he's tethered to you.”
Botta00 says “before amumu got so strong i always banna him.
Zac and Rammus counter each other by denying each other abilities but zac has a higher win rate
(if you believe in the power of rammus you will win without problems)”
KeyTheMonolith says “Zac can be a real threat if hes on a team of squishys as you'll need to go blue kayn but he can peel and cc you but if not this should be a fairly simple matchup going red with the tank shred and sustained damage allows for easy fights when zacs in them allowing for a full hp regen when ulting zac.”
Hidon1 says “Zac is a worse Nunu early. It is not a good champ before level 5. Make sure you stay active in the early game. because he can not help his laners that well. His jump range level 3/4 is tiny so do not be afraid of him counter ganking you level 3. If you do not get good ganks of early he will outscale you though. ”
The Real Fake says “You out damage him, better clear, his ganks are slightly better but you can always counter gank him. Everything he excels at (ganks, teamfighting, tanking), you can do almost as well. Everything you excel at, (fighting, clearing, splitpushing) you do far better than him.”
J03B0B says “His passive makes him hard to invade early and he will be impossible to kill unless you are giga fed. His team fighting prowess vs your lack of team fighting makes this match up super annoying. ”
styllEE says “Darkin Kayn is in general really good into any tanks, some tank matchups can be a bit hard early on, but after form you should win the matchup 100% of times”
pltino says “Hard to play against Zac he has nice sustain and quite huge dmg. When you have match up against him, just focus on farming and ganking dont try to counterjungle unless he is dead or other side of the map.”
Karasmai says “Just go Rhaast and team fight you can cancel his E with your W if timed well. You get exec and you can out-path him. You can get all the early objectives and win counter ganks, just be very cautious of his ulti and DO NOT let him pick up his blobs or else! ”
Maile says “Try to invade him early as much as you can with lane priority. If you can snowball, then the game is extremely easy. If you're forced into farming simulator, take his camps away because Zac cannot gank and farm. Disrupt his first clear and you can prevent your lanes from getting chain-ganked. ”
Connweasel says “I will find a vod of me doing this, but if Zac is looking to enagage, you can place yourself at the front of your team. If Zac jumps in, Reksai and use her W if burrowed and negate the jump in. Keeping your backline safe and allowing for you team to make quick work of Zac.”
CalicoCactus says “Rammus doesn't excel at fighting tanks, especially AP ones. Zac has a lot of CC, you beat him with your grievous but if he has his team you need to get out of there.”
SketchtheHunter says “Eh, he's ok. He's not going to be super oppressive since he doesn't do much damage and doesn't have a lot of CC outside of his E, but he can hang in there long enough for his allies to roam. A decent ult target, tho. HP is always a nice stat to steal.”
SaltCat says “He beats you early game, just avoid him he is a tank anyway, you will most likely get a free level 6 because he doesnt invade most of the times”
Fresh Diamond says “Zac's main threat his abundance of CC, the gank potential of his E and his unexpectedly decent damage. A good Zac is a nightmare to deal with since he can so easily dive your backline and disrupt them without you being able to peel for them. His early clear is somewhat slow and weak, so try to invade him early on to get him behind.”
Minase says “Can be an absolute fucking terror despite not being a counter. His kit is extremely obnoxious and it's super hard to actually shut him down and kill him. Good news is you can scale for free for the most part and he can't really invade you so just ignore him as best as you can until mid-late game.”
DjapeFromSerbia says “Ton of CC, slows, chase potential, and can lock you down, ruining your triforce rush early game. More usefull than Hecarim in late game fights.
”
FalleN3 says “Annoying champion that is not played too often at the minute. His ganks can be quiet powerful, especially as he can arrive into a lane from quiet some distance. He is tanky as hell and also has lots of CC, be careful as the game progresses and try to avoid his CC.”
Holessando says “Zac is a good jungler, but you should still easily kill him though. Always check if his passive is on cd. He doesn't have much damage, so you should be fine fighting him, he can do lot in teamfights though, make sure your team doesn't stack with each other, so he can't mass R on all of you. Also don't make him hit his E on you in early, it could lose your fight.”
KingStix says “Zac is strong late game but you will beat him early. Make sure you don't get hit by his CC in team fights and die before using your spells.”
metalhydra273 says “Zac's cc will be annoying but you should be able to play around him pretty well provided you don't get caught out. You could ult him if he wants to fly over you or you could just let him land and get him out of the fight quickly. Abuse early game pressure and look to pull ahead.”
NixLychee says “He's WAY too tanky for you to really do lasting damage to him, but he's not entirely your job anyways. If you go Rhaast you'll have an easier time against him.”
brSL7 says “Zac é um campeão tank sem muito dano. Mundo consegue solar o Zac em todos os momentos de jogo, pois quando mais vida o Zac fazer mais o dano Q do Dr Mundo vai dar, facilitando bastante as trocas.”
gurubashi35 says “Zac's main threat his abundance of CC, the gank potential of his E and his unexpectedly decent damage.
A good Zac is a nightmare to deal with since he can so easily dive your backline and disrupt them without you being able to peel for them.
His early clear is somewhat slow and weak, so try to invade him early on to get him behind.
Like with most other tank junglers, his objective damage is low, so sneak a few neutral objectives here and there.”
Ruffhsu says “His crowd control could be scary and his counter-ganks are strong but when his crowd control chain is over, he becomes relatively easy to kill. You can use your Q to avoid his E which would make your fight against him much easier. He is, however, a bigger presence in team fights. Go Red Kayn against him.”
chasemyman1 says “Horrible. He can counter gank you so easy with his slingshot. He has high Crowd Control and alot of sustain meaning you are oging to have a tough time. Try and track him in the jungle and play the opposite side of the map.”
reganakers says “Zac's early game is very bad. If you find him in his Jungle then you can easily 1v1 him. However Zac has his E so he can easily escape, and even if you do kill him, his passive can stall long enough for his teammate to arrive. His E is very telegraphed so you can R it easily.”
wild overload lol says “Zac é um campeão que possui um early game extremamente tranquilo por causa de sua passiva, o que torna o jogo mais difícil para tanto o Shaco quanto seu time, pois com o tempo ele vai assegurar o time inimigo inteiro e acabar com o jogo.”
Depresso says “Extremely broken champ currently.
He can snowball other lanes and becomes unkillable later on, and can use Daisy as a q land spot. Watch the daisy placement and be sure to deep ward unusual places where he might jump from if possible.”
PsiGuard says “Pretty good matchup since you can interrupt his E and prevent him from effectively engaging. You outdamage him so you have kill potential if you ever catch him alone without his E to escape. You can also use your R to follow his E, just be careful you don't follow him into a tower or his team. Try and get an early lead and take jungle control because his 5v5 is much better than yours.”
PsiGuard says “Zac loves building Spirit Visage and high amounts of HP, so you're unlikely to get kills on him. He's also a better team fighter than you, so your best bet is to outplay him with ganks/counterganks and try to burst his backline when he engages later in the game. Don't try to kill him unless you have teammates that can help you finish him off.”
KillyOne says “Even tho 1 on 1 fights with Zac are in your favor, his mobility, tankiness, crowd control and revive passive are just too good. He will rarely engage on his own, so you can safely assume that one of his teammates is coming to help him when he engages. His sustain is good in jungle, but he doesn't have all that much damage so he will not be soloing dragons or heralds. You could try to invade if given an opportunity.”
League Of Cursed says “From my experience, he out scales you in every stage of the game. He has a fantastic engage for team fights, and good map mobility with solid damage and sustain. Honestly, just try to peel him off your back line if you can during team fights. After that you can try to get their back line or clean up from there.
”
Dopamine_influx says “Be in his face, kill him, cheese him on red (if he strarted blue), contest him on scuttles. You hard win 1v1. He's annoying in skirmishes with the perma CC though, but you can still win them if you played your early correctly and snowballed him. Red - blue - red works well against him, or reverse full clear into scuttle fight if he started red.”
CptTeemoOnDuty says “Trundle is very good against tanks, especially post 6. Just make sure to avoid some of the cc, also your pillar can interupt his jump if you hit it while he is charging. ”
Stiwy says “Not a big deal, just remember to get some healing reduction and you should be fine.
He is easily killable and his passive's respawn will hardly trigger against you.”
Xeldom says “Favorable match-up. Zac is fairly weak early and offers nothing in a skirmish. Make sure to mirror him and counter gank and contest scuttles. Do not let him take neutral objectives without being contested. ”
Jogress says “Zac is not a threat for you - he will have hard times landing his E on Lillia and she deals more damage in long perspectives. He is more dangerous for laners so help them”
AWierdShoe says “Very annoying to deal with. You'll want to try and invade his jungle early. You win 1v1s, but if he counter-ganks it will be quite difficult to duel. Try to get a good lead so that he doesn't become too tanky and too much of a CC monster in the late game. ”
DarkArbalist613 says “He si pretty weak early, so take advantage and invade and kill him. His E allows him to gank and Escape easily so counterganking after he uses if is extremely effective, try not to get hit by his knockup or displacement abilities”
Comrade Eshgrim says “He can't really kill you, but you can't really kill him either. Difficult to invade because he can escape quickly with his slingshot that you have no means to interrupt. Best just avoid him early to mid game, and keep your teammates alive with your ult when he sets up dives in teamfights.”
Zailent says “Easy matchup. Rhaast will seriously beat him up by his max hp dmg and healing. Shadow assasin can oneshot half of his hp. Just don't greed for him without a form, its a free kill for him or his team”
Omega Zero says “All Tank Junglers lead to Rhaast. Some aren't dangerous (like this boi), others like Sejuani can prove to be an issue. "Issue" is you can't damage them much, but it isn't YOUR job to kill tanks as SA now is it?”
MegaAlphaDog says “Zac's sustain, mobility, tankiness, cc and revive passive are just too op. He is very much a team player so don't expect 1 v 1's as someone will be hiding in the bushes. look to counter jungle when you see him on the opposite side of the map”
Kamisore says “You can look for early invades, but later on ask your laners to ward in areas where Zac can leap over. Watch out in teamfights because he can easily distrupt your engage with his kit.”
Hide on Nidalee says “Hard to kill on early because his pasive, and is the best tank on the jungle, so be careful and try to play arround drakes to win the game”
DarkPit59 says “Zac peut poser quelques problèmes à cause de ses contrôles de foule et de ses nombreuses possibilités de s'enfuir d'une situation délicate. Il est préférable de régulièrement apporter de la vision afin de préparer un counter-gank dont il aura des difficultés à survivre. Votre châtiment peut également éliminer instantanément un de ses 4 blobs.”
Fresh Diamond says “Annoying champion that is not played too often at the minute. His ganks can be quiet powerful, especially as he can arrive into a lane from quiet some distance. He is tanky as hell and also has lots of CC, be careful as the game progresses and try to avoid his CC.”
WickedPoppet says “From my experience, he out scales you in every stage of the game. He has a fantastic engage for team fights, and good map mobility with solid damage and sustain. Honestly, just try to peel him off your back line if you can during team fights. After that you can try to get their back line or clean up from there.”
LightBright9213 says “Just you but tankier depending on builds. Can outjungle you and outgank you if you fall behind. In teamfights try to use your R to yeet him into the enemy team.”
Thatskillz1291 says “Skill based match up, how you win this is by ganking more then zac, if the zac tries to counter this by ganking a lot too, only clear red buff and blue buff.”
Basics of Nunu by Thatskillz1291 | Nunu & Willump Player
SavageFy says “Zac doesn't pose a threat until he completes his jungle item, and doesn't do a large amount of damage early. Majority of the time, Amumu wins the early duels against Zac.”
Sorrowful Prince says “Relatively slow early but really fast after cinderhulk. Abuse his early by ganking a lot and getting lanes ahead. In fights you can easily dodge his jump and either peel for your backline or dive his. If you manage to get 4 Items against him your true damage will hurt even him. This matchup gets easier the better your mechanics are.”
TrevorJayce says “With his cannonball countergank potential and free guardian angel passive, this champion is just annoying to deal with after the first 10 minutes when he starts to get tanky. Get him behind early and he'll be useless from minute 5 to 50.”
Morzanoth says “Since being nerfed, Zac is actually really easy to deal with now. He takes about the same if not more damage as you so you can look to abuse his early weakness with some help from your laners. You can dodge most of his abilities very easily but you dont want to stay colse to him for too long since his cooldowns are shorter than yours. In mid game, you want to ward over walls since he can engage from really far away. You best option is to try and pressure 2 lanes and when he engages, turn on him after he uses his ULT. If the game gets to late he can disrupt your very easily so just be careful when going in.”
Nico449c says “He got good base damage but hes weak to you invading him at lvl 3 since he does not have the best clear. So try invade him eventually countergank him but he will win a lot of counterganks. Since hes ganks is better than yours at lvl 4 + if hes played probably. So try invade him and not let him hit late game.”
KajiKumihoAkukei says “Zacis very strong right now, but he is still very weak in the early game. Try to invade him if you can and take as much of his camps as possible. If he falls behind he will take a very long time before he gets really tanky. ”
briguy1109 says “Easy to kill 1v1, but if your lanes are pushed with no vision, he will gank them endlessly, snowballing them. Win Condition:
You CAN NOT keep up with his ganks and just have ask your teammates to survive till late game. Beat him in farm, and do your best to track him and predict his next gank target .”
Marcua says “Zac is different from most tank junglers, since he often wont look to gank level 3, but instead do a full clear and get the second point in his E before starting to gank. Use this to your advantage. If he starts bot side, start top side and counterjungle him.
This match up wont be a problem for Nidalee at all, but be careful. If you don't close out the game, Zac will outscale you hard.”
MannerlessNG says “Worth mentioning him because Zac is another coin toss. Most players cannot play Zac to save their lives, but the ones that can are difficult to contend with. Do not try and foolishly chase him down, he is a cheeky git!”
Fabosch is Love says “You 1v1 him easily in early game. The prob is the chunk regeneration in mid/late game, when he has enough armor to denie your damage. Take care to ward, in order to engage enemy carries correctly. ”
The Top Bear says “Zac is easy to fight at most points in the game. Tank junglers got taken down pretty hard. Just be careful for counterganks and remember to ward up deep in his jungle since his ganks are pretty strong and long-range.”
Goku SSJ sensed your ener says “Avoid him, try to attack him when he leaps in because you can kill him. Watch out for team but you can kill adc before he can do anything.”
eastya says “You're able to cancel his leap with unburrow. His tankiness is a threat to you because you cannot burst him down like any other squishy champions.”
TheDrKlord says “He's a tank, Zac shouldn't have enough damage to kill you, so invade him and trade for free [[the darking scythe]] Orbs, be careful if her team mates come help him, you'll be in trouble.”
Simphoria says “He's not really a threat but I absolutely dislike this matchup. He can out gank us, out farm us, remains healthier, can engage like us (though a bit worse), team fight well, is tanky with a nice chunk of damage, he is almost like a better version of us. I always feel like I am behind when I play against him. I like the challenge but man it feels like I am playing against a champion like mine but who is just better overall. There's not much counter play so it can be annoying. Best advice is to gank often and engage in fights when you can as that's the only aspect you have a clear advantage for.
Even though he's not a "threat", he is definitely one of my least liked matchups. ”
Mkcls says “Depends on Zac. Just dodge his Stun and Q, you should be able to kill him. Remember to use your W on his passive, so it will damage all the green blops. ”
McDank says “A good Zac will build full health against you so you wont be able to steal any defences from him. He is also an excellent bait because of his passive so try to keep track of that before you decide to engage him. You can pillar him out of his jump even is hes in the air if you hit it correctly.”
Laverenz says “Run. Run. Run. He has so much CC and you're easily caught off guard. If he hits you with his q and you're close to something like a minion, ally, ward or turret he can get that tiny knock up on you, which will then lead to an ult right into their team. You will get focused, simply because you're their main threat, when you get ahead. Twitch is easy to shut down, as his Q is rather easy to detect and you're SUPER squishy.”
VapoSK says “He will survive your combo easily and has good sustain along with his passive. His counter ganks are deadly to you. KIll him early with help from laners before be gets too tanky, Dont bother invading and build accordingly.”
CryAwake says “Can be tricky to kill mid to late game make sure to use you steadfast presence very smart as it can easily change the game for both team, be smart.”
SexyKungFu says “PASSIVE HEALING IS BROKEN, Q IS CC FOREVER, W DAMAGE IS BROKEN (8% MAX HEALTH MAGIC DAMAGE ON A 2 SECOND COOLDOWN BY THE TIME YOU CONSISTENTLY FIGHT HIM). E AND R ARE VERY ANNOYING”
Eqxilibrium says “Similar to Sejuani, In the mid game, Zac will want to be more proactive than you, but he will outscale you in the late game, so make sure you're really active in the early game.”
The Jhin Cena says “If he's AP you shouldn't have too much of an issue, however if he's building tank then you should be cautious when engaging, especially in team fights. His CC can make you vulnerable during teamfights and it will take forever to kill him. Try buying Void Staff when facing a tank Zac. Also I think Zhonya's can counter his ult (I haven't faced a reworked Zac with Amumu yet).”
Bombabo says “While you won't be able to burst him, his weak early game means he wont pose a threat to you. You may even be able to 1v1 him in some circumstances”
Killerbacca10 says “Even matchup. Skill matchup. When his passive starts just ult and wipe him out. Make sure to counter gank and not let yourself be counter gank. Take as many dragons as possible because he cant stop you.”
HAMMERSLAYER says “A very active jungler that will rush some early levels and then attemp to gank any lanes availiable to him, he can babysit any lane and gank from weird paths that are closed to other junglers, its very important to have vision of him in order to avoid and counter his ganks, he can be easily 1v1ed but he will manage to run away most of the times.”
LixoPanado says “Can stop you in your ult, in dueling generally it's kind of a stalemate, most likely none of you will die, but he has the upper hand in longer fights.”
lolWillieP says “Easy to invade, hard to teamfight against. Invade him as much as you can, but if the game gets into a teamfight oriented game you auto-lose”
BurstTheBots says “Is very difficult to escape from and his ganks are very unpredictable because his E can be cast from a pretty long range and what makes it worse he can ult you to bounce you back over to his teammates or away from your teammates and can pick you off.”
bluejaypig says “Keep his passive in mind and once you have bloodrazor it should be easy. Edit: In team fights try to alpha his q and ult lockdown after the update or you will be destroyed.”
BigBadVoodo says “We can easily cheese him at early stages. Smiting his passive blobs helps us pick up the kill early. It's hard to play against him when behind (like with every tank) but it's easy to stay ahead of him.”
LePlay says “He´s (literally) pretty squishy early on, and relies on his E to start fights. Block it with your W and stun him with your E-Q combo whenever possible. You can also cancel his E while he´s charging it by displacing him with your E ”
kkiskk says “This jelly monster will smash you if you don't build MR. You either call ganks frequently or build MR boots and spectre's cowl before completing youmuu's. Try to dodge his E knock up. Walk on his jelly parts so he can't heal from that. It will be a hard time for you to lane with this monster as he is tanky and large in size. Your harass will do no damage to him if he build armor (he usually will), it's like you poke your spear into a jelly (it's true). Get executioner's calling first item. Watch out for his R if you're near enemy turret.”
ElementressX says “Zac isn't too difficult. He isn't very tanky so he can't fight you 1v1 that well. But be weary of his ult it can put you in a very bad position. ”
Slykku says “You can't kill this dude his clear is not that fast so if you want you can do a vertycal counterjungle[ your Blue - His Red in early game, trying to kill him require a lot of time, so his team will be able to join him and f*** you up. ”
Loul_60 says “Zac is a very easy matchup for Kayn. Like most tank junglers, he lacks damage and 1v1 potential. Take advantage of this and pick potential fights - Just be wary of roams, especially from champions like Talon, to assist the Zac.
Your good AoE damage also helps you combat Zac's passive because you can take out his slimeball things that revive him. ”
L3gislacerator says “He has a better engage and teamfight potential, but not nearly as much damage as you. Use your ultimate once he bounces in to prevent follow-up.”
Exhiled says “Keep his passive in mind and once you have bloodrazor it should be easy. Edit: In team fights try to alpha his q and ult lockdown after the update or you will be destroyed.
”
Morzanoth says “You can look to pressure zac out early. He is get's quite low in his first clear so you can look to invade him with your laners and shut him down. Always ward over walls because his E has a really long range. Late game you need to ensure he can't get behind you or he is locked down if he does. His ult can mess with your team's fighting ability as he can force you into a bad position.”
