Extremely high damage, extremely tanky, no mana, free GA, extremely mobile, tons of CC. How is this not over powered?

His damage is not high, it's perfectly fine for a tank. Zac and Sejuani are most balanced tanks.

Funny thing about Zac's E. It doens't make him immune to CC. So snares and stuns will ground him in nothing flat if used right. Zac pays for his increased utility with sub par jungle clear speed. Ever watch a zac try and kill scuttle without cornering him at one end of the river? It takes for friggen ever. He is super weak to counter jungling since again bad clear speed and at low levels he get beat to hell just taking his first few camps and probably doesnt have E yet to escape you. As far as damage goes he really doesn't have that much either. Don't like how much dmg his E does? Stop walking and let him land then just walk past him. W? Well think of it this way. If his W did less dmg how the hell would he clear jungle or ever kill anyone solo if he is the last man standing in a team fight.

People don't like Zac because he forces them to play different. Which is exactly what Riot wanted when they first released him.

If you have proper ward coverage you should see him charging up his slingshot. Now, if his slingshot didn't have a channel time, then he might actually be OP. But even if that was the case, you can still dodge it, unlike other cc abilities (like a Malphite ult for instance). My point is, there's counterplay.

Short answer is that he is. Zac has a lot of base damage and deals %maxHP damage, two of the most OP forms of damage in the game for anyone that builds tank. Which he does. AP is a much more fluid stat than AD for building along with tank, which also feeds into Zac's scaling. In a tank (or bruiser if you're anal about it) meta like this one, he gets to do it all.
