Whats up with the zac hate

Although his winrate might not show it, I think riot improved his gameplay. Correct usage of his new q and r makes for some MASSIVE team fight potential. You can throw the entire team into your tower or throw them away from ur team. Ur q can cancel some dashes and cc 2/5 champions. I don't see why people are saying he was gutted, I feel like he takes more skill now, and that's what is causing the winrate drop.

Personally I just find his Q to be really awkward and buggy.

QOL fixes and bug fixes coming in the next patch. Too bad it came out like it is right now, but at least Riot is working on it.

he is much worse than he used to be tbh. While his Q might be nice for throwing people together and his R can pick people up. He used to be able to dive in and be a disruption tank. Not he is a shitty version of lee sin.

My problem with zac is he has no defensive steroid outside of the gimmicky passive, and his damage took a nose dive in the rework. The Q should always smash enemies together instead of moving them halfway.

Glued some gimmicky moves to a champion that most players were satisfied with. It's like how Shen players suddenly got told that they had to play around a floaty sword out of nowhere.

I haven't seen his Q actually do anything so I won't comment on it. However, his ult is just terrible. The main problem is he has to channel before doing anything else. So he goes in with his E, CCs himself with his ult, and then people walk away because the channel is so long and the radius is so small. If the ult is to stay, he needs to be able to grab people before the channel, and guarantee that he's going to bring them back to his team as long as the channel succeeds. And even then, it's awful because of how binary something like that is.

His E's knock-up duration is being increased on the PBE, meaning if he lands his E, the enemy has only about a 0.15~ second window to get out if fully charges his E.

It means unless they flash after you land your elastic slingshot, you will abduct them.

Zac's ult is kind of weird in that it probably won't be very good against certain teams.... like yeah even if Zac land his E and R on the enemy ADC.... if the enemy team is full of juggernauts and like AoE CC tanks (like Amumu ) then they can just walk on top of Zac while he is charging.... yes Zac can move the ADC to his team... but then he will also place the enemy tanks and juggernauts close to his team as well...

Of course that isn't really a problem when ganking

His ult is less fun for me and some others, used to be you would jump in and then jump around some more ruining everyone's day.

Now you jump in, hold still (ew) and then MAYBE make one or two people regret living.
