I am not positive the PBE changes show the enemy team an indicator instead of shadow or not. I hope not. The landing radius of Zacs E is not very wide. I am afraid one of my favorite junglers will not be nearly as viable with another telegraph he is coming. I believe the shadow is enough already. Pantheon was one of my favorites as well until they did that to his ultimate and that is a much bigger radius.
When this change goes live, the Zac fantasy of diving the backline and causing chaos in teamfights will be over. Zac is now entirely a peeling champion... If Elastic Slingshot wasn't interruptable, I could understand this change, but it just seems like Riot is over reacting to a temporary increase in popularity on Zac. As it is, I get interrupted by Trundle pillars, alistar headbutts and pulverizes, and Thresh flays on a daily basis at my ELO. If the enemy team has a Janna or Poppy, I have to rush Banshee's Veil just to stand a chance. At least Cho'gath can't have his rupture interrupted... I doubt I will be able to play Zac in Diamond after this change, as my main playstyle on him was dive the backline and kill the squishies, but then again, his ban rate is so high I hardly get to anymore anyway.
Indeed, Zac is unviable now.
