Reasonable Zac Buff Ideas from 1 Million OTP

Zac First of all you need to fix the bug that Zac's passive is smite-able with unupgraded smite.

Now onto the balancing ideas:

1- Change E knockback duration from 0.5~1s to 1s without needing to fully charge it.

Reason: The more Zac upgrades his E, the harder its CC last to the full duration due to charging time increasing per level, Zac get punished whether he maxes E or not. Zac is a tank and tanks are suppose to sit in the middle of a teamfight and chain CC.

2- Revert W AP nerf (2% HP per 100 AP) or buff it somehow, especially at level 1

Reason: With the buff to Q, maxing Q second is now the optimal choice for CD and base damage, so his W deals only 4% health dmg for the first +20 minutes, which is VERY bad to clear jungle with or even minions; whose health increase over time. The recent jungle nerfs just made it MORE worse for Zac to farm.

3- Buff base armor. According to wikipeda; after the rework, Zac's class has changed from Juggernaut to Vanguard, but why does he still have less 37.5 max base armor than Pyke; an assassin with better sustain and mobility!? aren't they both basically supports with ranged pull and gab closer?

Please notice Zac, thank you. Zac

These are very simple changes. Zac's E "signature ability" is easy to dodge and countered by many champs either dashing or getting CC'd midair or even hooked. It is very punishing when missed. You can buff this by making the warning circle appears a bit later or unstoppable midair.

If it lands, Q and/or R will follow which means Aftershock is completely useless on Zac.

Just please keep that in mind and discuss the appropriate changes thoroughly.

I'd increase the AD base and attack speed. It wouldn't affect Zac's damage at all, just his jungle cleanup.

800something K mastery Zac Here. Imo Hes completly fine. Buffs will Just put him into banworthy teritory and i dont wanna see that since i suck on most other champs. Also the Smite on passive blobs is no Bug, the blobs are accounted as minions. Thats why you can tp in them.
