I think they meant that more in the way of "he should get some actual skins first"

They've also said that its "very hard to find an idea that works with his model"

Ask any Zac fan and they will tell you all the same skins.

Its not the ideas so much as the model itself. Much like Rumble, Zac's model has a lot of moving parts and is tricky to animate.

And i think thats one of the big problems. If they make chromas now,they might miss the opportunity for a functioning zac skin in the future,which would really suck,because they don't have that many options for Zac anyway.

For example if they made a chroma where zac is brown,then they wouldn't be able to make a brown zac skin for him anymore(like chocolate zac),because the skin would look too similar to the brown chroma.

Zacs unique model makes it hard to find stuff that works on him,but it also allows him some opportunitys that other champs don't have,so I'd say it is worth exploring these opportunities first before they start making chromas.

I fully expect Zac to get a Chroma pack at some point, but really hope to see an actual skin before that. I for one would feel quite let down if the first thing Zac got was recolors.

Oh of course. Ones like molten Zac or galaxy Zac, (earthworm jim) but I actually feel that a few recolours would be nice just for the mean time. That way if everybody picks a blue champion, then Zac doesn't get left out.
