Support Zac Is Back

CyrosGold·12/26/2014, 1:56:42 AM·2 votes·1,330 views

So I used to play Zac as support after he came out in season 3, after nerfs and gameplay changes he was not a viable pick in Season 4, but with the changes to Season 5 and his recent buffs he is viable once more. I have a variable build for him, the primary one being tanky, with Abyssal Scepter as the only source of AP I build on him. Also this is another support that benefits from smite since it allows you to build a Stalker's with Juggernaut. Not to mention all the benefits from smite itself.
I run armor marks, Scaling armor seals, Armor quints, and a mix of magic resist and scaling magic resist glyphs. Masteries are 4/13/13. I play him as a disruptive CC support with decent burst damage(even without AP), high survivability, and stickiness.

I did a guide for him om LoLking in season 3, I'm looking to update it soon. Any constructive tips or suggestions are welcome.

Blue players made a lot of mistakes, can't consider him support role yet. But, he's a terrific nice jungler!

Here some comments regarding the video:

Use your smite earlyer You could have used it on blue buff to speedup the process. This way you would have been in time in lane to contest the level 2 push. Even when you forget that. You didn't use it during the level 2 push. You might made it a tie than & you wouldn't have lost the pressure.

Known when to zone You got poked down plently of times what made you unable to zone on the moment you had to be.

The runes I didn't test it yet but I would try this:

  • 3x MS Quints | 2x MS Quints, 1x AR Quint | 2x MS Quints, 1x AP Quint
  • 9x AR Marks | 9x Hpen Marks
  • 9x AR Seals | 6x AR Seals, 3x HP Seals | 9x Scaling AR Seals
  • 9x MR Glyphs | 3x MR Glyphs, 6x CDR Glyphs

With some movementspeed it will be easyer to zone them.
