Zac Counters
Learn Zac's counters and discover matchups where they have an advantage! When you're starting a game of League of Legends you should always keep in mind if you'll be at an advantage or disadvantage against your opponent, so you can know whether to bully them or play safe. You can find detailed breakdowns of each matchup on CounterStats, and you can also check out some Zac guides to see how to build and play against other champions you may find yourself up against!
This counter data is for Zac JUNGLE in Plat+ games. The percent shown is the enemy champion's counter rating against Zac. Counter rating is our own statistic that factors in counter kills, overall kills, early lead ratio, comeback ratio, and win percent to give the whole picture of that champion's effectiveness as a counter pick.

Upon taking fatal damage, Zac splits into 4 chunks that attempt to recombine. If any of these chunks remain after 8 / 7 / 6 / 5 / 4 seconds, he will revive with 10-50% health depending on the health of the surviving chunks. Each chunk has 12% of Zac's maximum health, and 50% of his armor and magic resistance. This ability has a static cooldown and is unaffected by cooldown reduction.
The revival speed is increased every 4 levels.
Absorbing Goo reduces this ability's cooldown by 1 second.
Release: Zac launches himself and knocks up enemies where he lands for up to 1 second (depending on charge time), dealing them 60 / 105 / 150 / 195 / 240 (+80% of ability power) magic damage. Zac spawns an extra chunk of Goo for each enemy champion hit.
Active: Zac bounces 4 times. The first bounce to hit each enemy knocks them back and deals 140 / 210 / 280 (+40% of ability power) magic damage. Subsequent bounces deal 70 / 105 / 140 (+20% of ability power) magic damage and slow by 20% for 1 second.
Zac gains up to 20−50% movement speed over time and can cast Unstable Matter while bouncing.
