Zac Rework Mid Season Patch

Hey there folks!

First of all I would say thank you for this informative post (Post of 27th february where they discuss changes https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/developer-corner/vLEjALxZ-mid-season-tanks-update-zac)! I as Zac main was curious if he indeed was going to get a rework in the mid season patch and therefore I am glad with this clarification so I know what to expect!

Of course, I was kind of scared about the changes, because for me personally I am happy the way he is and know how to use his toolkit as effective as possible. However my friend and I discussed the "what if he is going to reworked question" and we concluded similiar to what the post says.

1. To me the toolkit of zac contains a lot --> You have a lot of cc and on top of that you can sustain really well in teamfights trying to peel your teammates.

2. The Q was not more then just a slow, meaning that it does not contain a lot of damage and is rarely gamechanging when it comes to fighting as a team. It helps maybe clearing camps but it is not more then that.

3. The W on the other hand is to me a pretty vital spell for Zac as he can camp clear quite good in the early game where he is quite weak as well as bursting enemy tanks. My question is how will riot look at his early and lategame potential and how does it influence his way of teamfigthing?

4. Good you keep the slingshot, passive and the blobs! =)

5. You said something about changing the ult of zac, since it feels like a wukong ult, however more chaotic --> I my opinion the ult really helps to pick out the carries as it makes it widen up the team in teamfigths! I was just curious, what Zac his ult needs to be like to make it a more vital teamfighting champion. I was wondering what the thoughts were on the devoloping a reworked ultimate.

6. As the lethality meta came in, I had a hard time adapting as a Full tank zac main, because I was going to get bursted down in short amount of time dealing no damage for the team or even able to peel my teammates. I changed my build path to find my way up to the ladder again and still climbing from bronze 3 to plat 3 in only 3 months =). Since you were not sure if AP zac was going to continue to exist, to me it has been a vital part to be an influence into the team and questioning how that is going to be if he gets reworked and Riot decides to make him a tank only champ.

• I never end my jungler item. I go straigth for Sunfire cape as it deals more damage.
• Then I build either boots and liandry (or spirit) depending if we win the early game hard or not and liandry makes the sunfire cape scale damage.
• After that I build full tank --> GA with either randuins or Deadmans plate
• This build makes me tanky and has a large impact in the game as I am able to tank a lot and have most of the time 2nd most damage dealt.

I have maybe many questions, but these are my thoughts at this point! I am really excited for the rework though since I fully agrre with the statements made! Stay awesome Riot and keep up the good work! =)
