Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range, plant damage, and ability to control Zac's engage angles with seed placement.
- Post-6 you dominate with R providing massive zone control that counters both Kalista's mobility and Zac's engage attempts.
Synergy & Trading
- Place seeds defensively to limit Zac E angles, then poke with Q-W when they're forced into predictable positions.
- When Zac engages, immediately E-R to lock down the follow-up while plants provide sustained damage throughout the fight.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam sparingly as your lane presence is crucial for controlling Zac's engage potential - only roam when wave is crashing and you have deep vision.
- Best roam timings are when Kalista is low and forced to back, allowing safe movement.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E on minions or miss it during crucial moments as it's your only reliable disengage against Zac's E.
- Never position too aggressively for poke without seed backup as Kalista's gap-close with Zac follow-up can punish overextension.
