Who Wins

  • Pre-6 you dominate trades with Q poke and passive stacking, and post-6 you maintain advantage through superior sustain and dueling power.
  • Zac's R engage is telegraphed and you can interrupt it with Q or simply out-sustain the follow-up damage.

How to Trade

  • Use Q to poke when Zac goes for CS, then look for extended trades when he commits with E as you can stack passive and out-damage him.
  • Your W provides sustain advantage while your passive stacks make extended fights heavily favor you.

Wave Control

  • Maintain slow pushes and use your sustain advantage to stay healthy while denying Zac's roam timings.
  • You want to keep waves in neutral positions where you can trade freely without giving Zac easy escape angles with E.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't waste Q on minions when Zac has E available, as this gives him free trade windows.
  • Avoid chasing too deep when Zac is low as his E over walls can turn ganks around and his passive revival can bait you into bad positions.
