Why's Zac deal so much damage as a (nearly) full tank?

More than Amumu, more than literally any other tank that I can think of. Super tanky, max hp% damage, high base damage on everything, low cds on all his spells, and a chance to escape with his passive.

Except he does.

Amumu does more overall damage than Zac. Zac does good damage because it scales with his health. Zac is good in all areas, but he doesn't really excel too much in any one area. Plus he is pretty weak early game.

Because Riot fucked up on zac. They allow him to build full tank yet i've been nearly 100-0d by him as an adc multiple times while being perma cc'd until i die.

It's not hard to 100-0 an ADC. Please understand that being squishy means that even tanks can kill you.

A tank ain't gonna do shit against another tank.

Yeahyou're 100% right. a tank imo should be able to kill a squishy. But a tank should not be doing burst damage in any given situation

That's just a type in of damage output. Sion, Zac, Alistair, Leona, and Malphite are all bursty in their damage formation due to their reliance on their abilities.

Whereas tanks like Shen and Tahm are more DPS focused (though Tahm can be bursty, it requires him getting a three hit stack).

You can say the same thing for Sion and Malph.

Just riot dont know how to balance his own game

I won't say Sion, but Malph is the same thing as Zac. He might need to build a bit more damage than Zac, but still the same idea.

Sion is played even as a supp and he still a shit ton of damage.

Also even Voli, he is ridicolous.

All these downvotes by people probably abusing Zac's broken tank to damage ratio for freelo. :^)))))))))))))
