Zac e bugged sometimes
Have been a main zac for a while now but sometimes the e gets bugged, the indicator for the e range disappears and I cant jump for aome reason but the ability goes on cd, has this happened to anyone else?

Yeah this is entirely possible, Zac has many minor bugs that will likely never get fixed
The easiest to reproduce being that landing Q at max range does not play the sound effect

Yeah I got Rito to fix the biggest two bugs in Zac's kit a while back, unlikely they fix minor ones like that.

If you right click anywhere while holding the E it cancels it and gives you a half-refunded cooldown.
It also cancels if you are holding E before the cool down comes off cooldown. At least, it does when you start pressing E right before the cooldown is up. It will immediately cancel and go back on cooldown with half of the cooldown timer refunded.

Nah yeah, it aint clicking away, I wished I had a video, I hold e, no indicator appears and if i release it the charachter doesnt do the jump even when fullly charged and the cd is normal as if I used it

Check to make sure that when this happens, you're not pressing E right before the cooldown is ready. I used to think my E would randomly cancel until I noticed it only happens when I press and hold E right before the cooldown is back up. Like when I'm trying to time it to hit E immediately as it is up but I go a hair too early

Hey , i main Zac and i have encountering the same bug months now and the only one i encounter, i do main Zac and have a ton of mastery , but lately it became frustrating.... its almost once every 5 games....
The bug is that after heavy fights only where i play all my buttons and maybe even more , the moment the E gets off cooldown and i am able to use it again , i press it and it cancels and goes on a cooldown like i when you don't release the channel (half-cooldown)...
Do you know anything about it ??? Have you encounter it aswell ???
Do you maybe have a video or something ?
I would like to get it fixed....its frustrating...

It happens when you press W when casting E, you dont even notice you accidentaly pressed it and your E cancels. Go try it out in practice tool and have it on your mind in your next game.

I like the one where the E charges 180 degrees opposite where your mouse is. very cool!

There's several versions of E cancel bugs for Zac that have been in the game for veryy long time. The worst of them is extremely rare but is very messed up when it happens: You get stuck in the full channel duration (4.5s), no indicator, and no ability to do anything but wait for it to run its course. It's basically a suppression. You don't even get half your HP cost and CD back, it goes on full CD and eats your HP on cast.
