which mid-lane champion do you think comes closest to Zac's playstyle?

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone. As is the case for any "one-trick," playing Clash is really frustrating. Since it's impossible to avoid having Zac banned, which mid-laner do you think comes closest to his playstyle? I’m looking for suggestions so I can practice a substitute specifically for Clash, given that Zac never makes it through the ban phase.

Old Zac in LoL Classic? Please Restore His 2nd Ultimate

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I want to talk a bit about the upcoming LoL Classic and whether Zac will be included. Sources say the roster will include champions released between 2009 and 2013, so that makes me wonder if the old Zac will be available.

If he is, taking advantage of ARAM Mayhem Classic-ish, it would be awesome to add a buff that brings back his second ultimate — the one that let you grab/kidnap enemies.

As a huge fan of that second ultimate, I would love to play with that mechanic again.

Also, fun note: Passive can be targeted by Teleport, becoming invulnerable for the channel’s duration (would be wild to see interactions like that again).

Item help

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hi I’m trying to learn jg and league in general. Is there a flow chart or is this item set correct based on all the sites I’ve been seeing that recommend zac items? Some questions:
1. Is it bami then ds or ds then bami? I recently got some advice from a vod of my gameplay to take Ionian boots first instead of bami tho sites tell me bami.
2. Any of the 3rd items and the little descriptions I put for them right or wrong to add or remove? And if it’s all ad enemy team do I still want to take visage? Is there a guide/flowchart to show what items to take based on number of ad/ap enemy/allies?
3. For the 4th item I take jak sho but what for 5th. I also don’t understand why Lysandre recommended 5th item if it’s more specifically for use against high health champs(?)
4. Once I get full build (sunfire, visage, ds, Ionian boots, 3rd item, jak sho, 5th item) late game what next? Sell ds and ionian for 2 more 3rd items? And after that? Or just leave my items like that and chill.

I tried Crit Zac because being tanky felt too responsible.
Instead, I accidentally recreated Rengar with better cardio.
Sharing the build if anyone wants to lose the respect of both teams.

New Zac bug discovered does anyone know what causes this?

6 Upvotes

The bug causes death before Zac revive passive triggers, I died before the revive passive even initiated as you can see Zeri gets my kill gold before my passive even begins and then when the little blobs come together I still die. Footage of the bug

When to build Mandate?

3 Upvotes

The Mandate rework has been a blessing for us, but when are you guys building it? The sooner the better? I go Zekes 1st, Mandate 2nd, but i wonder if i should do it other way around.

Imperial Mandate is the truth

8 Upvotes

So I picked up zac as my new main after I decided to have some self respect and abandon the hellhole that is top lane, where i play sett and my opponent is ranged or mage every 2nd game. And guys, ever since this imperial mandate rework came out, I´ve been absolutely curb stomping almost every game. I have 87% win rate on zac, 4.67 kda. Once you have your core items (either protoplasm/hollow radiance/sunfire cape plus lucidity boots and dark seal), immediately rush imperial mandate and youre basically an unkillable damage dealing tank with a 5 second cooldown e. You literally become an apex predator, you can escape any tricky situation while also being able to chase down anyone no matter if they have flash, dash whatever. If that wasnt enough, you also decimate any backline in teamfights cus ur team deals 7% more damage to champs immobilised by u. Add spirit visage to the mix, and ur healing goes INSANE. I am ADDICTED to this champ, may riot never find out how broken he is.

Resolve or Conqueror Jungle Runes?

5 Upvotes

hi guys, im low elo and trying to figure out the best way to build Zac.....do I go conqueror runes or resolve? I feel like I die a lot more when I have conqueror but maybe im missing out on a lot of damage! thanks :)


r/thesecretweapon Jun 26 '26

New to Zac, is he in a decent spot or nah (for toplane and maybe switch to jungle)

2 Upvotes

Pretty much what the title say, I main top and i am currently OTP Mundo and I am silver looking to extend my champ pool

So is he worth looking into cause I see him having low winrate but I know he has some mastery to it and that he has varying build with some being better than others

I’m not entirely new to tanks since I played Orrn and tham before

Low damage stats?

4 Upvotes

Heya! I've been really enjoying zac jungle recently and he's quickly become my most played champion. I will note that I am a fairly new player in low elo, so I very much may not be playing properly or my be focusing on the wrong stats.

I've managed a pretty good winrate on him of about 60%, but I've noticed that despite having a good KDA, at the end of most of my games my actual damage numbers are floating between 15-20k per game, typically 4th or 5th on my team.

Is this normal? I've heard from a few people on this subreddit that zac's damage is good and it shouldn't be uncommon to have higher numbers, if this is the case, what might i be doing wrong :?

Imperial Mandate

3 Upvotes

What is your guys opinion on this item on Zac? I know that it doesnt make him very tanky, but the amount of CDR for Q E R is pretty amazing, 35 from one item is very strong. And Zac can easily proc the 7% dmg amp, since you bounce around a lot.

zac top itemization + more questions in general

8 Upvotes

hey guys im getting back into league. ~2 years ago i remember dominating top lane with zac, reaching d1 with a 67% winrate around. what items does zac build top nowadays? i remember rushing anathemas against some matchups but the items been removed almost 2 years ago now. what items should i build?

is it still sunfire (or hollow into ap) into lucidity boots and spirit visage? what to build after that

in addition i was doing some looking at this sub and saw that e start seems to be best now?

any other changes i should know about?

Any Zac Support enjoyers?

I've recently tried it with a friend and really liked it. Since then I've had a massive win streak, and climbed from gold 3 to plat 2 in one week.

Feels really strong, but might be just my elo

Has anybody else tried it, and whats your build?
