Playing as Zac
Tips to maximize your impact
- Smash them into each other
After Stretching Strikes (Q) on one enemy, hit a second enemy with your auto: you fling them into each other, and if they collide, they and those nearby take damage.
- Pick up your Goo
Pick up the chunks of Goo you shed when your spells hit: Cell Division (passive) heals you for each one, and Unstable Matter (W) comes back 1 second sooner.
- Charge your Slingshot out of sight
Charge Elastic Slingshot (E) from the fog of war: the enemy has less time to react, and the longer the charge, the longer the knock-up on landing.
- Bounce into the middle of them
Cast Let's Bounce! (R) into the heart of their team: the first bounce knocks back each enemy hit, the following ones slow them, and you can cast Unstable Matter (W) at the same time.
Playing against Trundle
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Draw him out of his domain
Don't fight in Frozen Domain (W): he gains move speed, attack speed and increased healing inside. Back off to draw him out of the zone.
- Back off after his Chomp
If you deal physical damage, back off after his Chomp (Q): it steals some of your attack damage for a few seconds, and he gains it.
- Get away from his pillar fast
Get away from Pillar of Ice (E) as fast as you can: it slows nearby enemies and blocks the path while it stands.
- Back off when he steals your resists
Back off when he casts Subjugate (R) on you: he steals part of your armor and magic resist, and gains what you lose.
