How to Play This Matchup
Mid-Game Showdown
Both champions spike around the same time. The player who gets their first item faster wins. Focus on CS leads and smart trades to build an advantage before the mid-game.
MR Priority
Both deal magic damage. An early Null-Magic Mantle or Mercury's Treads can swing the lane. Hexdrinker is also an option for AD champs.
Exploit Zac's Weakness
Zac's main weakness: Grievous wounds, burst before blobs, invades early. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
Akali Win Condition
Assassinate backline, shroud outplays in teamfights
Zac Win Condition
Long-range E engage, R displacement, blob passive revive
