Undo Zac rework petition.

Hello. Zac was my favorite champion. This is the current state.

Q- Used to be AoE damage. While not really flashy, worked, helped jungle clears and provided a decent slow for ganks. Now it is worthless in jungle, making less dmg overall considering all camps. Vs Champions, the pull is so minimal I rather keep my old one. Makes it less reliable, since you need minions or another champ to actually work. In team fights, is so clunky is very much pointless.

W- Same as always.

E- Somehow, the circle showing where you will land wasnt enough. Now the knock up is nerfed too. So Nerfed to the ground again.

Ultimate- Woah. Now you really screwed it up. The Zac ultimate was not only used as a knock back. Could help you get in and out of fights. Maybe even survive a chase. The new one is basically useless in every aspect and weaker. You land E, have .5 secs to charge. The problem is that landing on E actually pushes people OUT of your R. So you either insta press R and make a less powerful Maokai Q or simply zone while getting destroyed, and of course, you are done, cause there is no escape after that. Maybe Riot thought about a worthless Nunu ult with no dmg?

Zac was a balanced, fun champion and you destroyed the whole mechanics and fun out of it. Sure, now is more "INTERESTING" to look at. Perhaps vs Dummies or AL.

Every single aspect of Zac got nerfed, I dont think an apologize and a revert would be too much to ask.

I just wish they would revert him already and admit that his rework was a failure.

HE WAS FINE!

HE DIDN'T NEED A REWORK!

He was fun, felt great, was balanced, did his job, his gameplay felt rewarding. Now it's just a mess of clunkiness. I don't even care if he's getting buffed and become stronger than he was before. He's just boring! he's not Zac anymore.

He has been out for less than 48 hours. Give yourself time to learn how to make good use of the changes. It has more skill expression now and is actually more rewarding when used optimally.

AP Zac got nerfed of course but this is a big buff to Tank Zac. Zac has two pulls now and is on the same level as Blitzcrank and Thresh. You can Q a minion and auto an enemy champ and it will pull the champ a bit or you could Q the enemy champ, and auto the same champ for an extended slow. His R can pull/seperate multiple champs at a time and is much more effect if you're tanky enough to not die during it.

Zac rework is a JOKE. You can't do anything; inane impractical Q and R, rest of his kit is dragged down into obsolescence. Did they even test out this travesty in applied gameplay or just fold their arms and say AAAYYYYYYYYYYYY wacky Zac thematic clarity!!!

Worst champ in the game now.

The main thing is that his kit is sub-par. I can deal with him doing less dmg. The problem is that everything is lackluster now.

He was incredibly nerfed dmg wise AND his abilities do LESS.

Less CC. Less DMG.

The ultimate is a mess. You do a single knockback for less dmg than a maokai q. It is tied to an E>Q auto hit minion or double hit and pray they dont move. For no dmg.

Zac lost the ability to zone a carry. People complaining about his e. Lol. Compare Zac to any tank and you will fino there is no reason to play him. Amumu kit is 10 times better with 10 times his dmg. Nautilus, Galio, Alistar, Blitz. Everything about them is better.

I feel the exact same way as you OP. I may only be silver II, but Zac was the one champion I knew that I could do well in and have a blast. He was balanced and at best a tier 2 jungler. He didn't need this rework compared to other champions. I played zac almost every game and had 6 S ranks in my last 7 ranked games last week before the change. Now i am left with nothing to play and am not sure where to turn to. I played him in ARAM and went 1/9. I went 1/9 with a champ I used to dominate games in. Even if he did get changed, the fact that I do that badly on a champ I have been maining for a year is ridiculous. He's weak, not fun, and pretty useless overall now.

After that ARAM game I wanted to throw up because a champ I had loved so much and made my living off of in league was now nerfed to the ground. RIP Zac, you won't see the light of day again.
