Diana vs Zac

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize efficient full clears to reach level 6 quickly and avoid early risky fights against Zac's strong early invade potential.
Use Diana's faster clear speed and mobility to control river scuttle when nearby lanes have priority, denying Zac easy access.
Focus on mid-game teamfight impact and objective control by leveraging Diana's burst and (R) to force fights around dragons and Herald.

Jungle Plan

Full clear camps efficiently to hit level 6 before Zac, then path toward objectives and lanes with priority to set up teamfights.
Fight for Scuttle when lane priority allows, otherwise focus on counter-jungling Zac's slower clear and denying his tempo.
Use vision and cross-map plays to punish Zac's predictable river gank angles and force him into unfavorable fights or objective trades.

Danger windows

Avoid invading or fighting Zac before level 3 as his early ganks from fog and walls can punish overextensions.
Be cautious contesting Scuttle or river fights without lane priority, as Zac's long-range (E) engage and knockups can isolate you.
Respect Zac's level 6 (R) knockup during objective setups; avoid forced smite fights when low health or without backup.

Early game

Start with a full clear toward a safe reset to avoid Zac's early invade pressure and path defensively if lanes lack priority.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes can move first and provide setup, otherwise avoid risky river fights.
Track Zac's pathing to anticipate his long-range ganks and be ready to counter-gank with level 6 (R) advantage.

Power spikes

Level 3 unlocks (Q)+(W)+(E) burst combo; use this to trade or force Zac off camps when cooldowns and minion positioning favor you.
Level 6 (R) grants strong all-in and teamfight presence; leverage this to initiate or counter Zac's engages.
First completed AP skirmish item boosts Diana's damage and objective pressure; increase aggression and contest objectives more confidently.

Win conditions

Convert faster clears and level 6 power spike into aggressive counter-ganks and objective control around dragon and Herald.
Use Diana's burst combo on Moonlight-marked targets to secure kills or force Zac off camps, denying him scaling.
Leverage (R) in mid-game fights to initiate or peel, snowballing teamfight advantage and securing map control.
