Zac vs Evelynn

Updated Jun 6, 2026

Overview

Zac must survive early invade pressure and avoid river fights until tank stats and vision improve.
Use long-range (E) engages to create gank tempo and secure objective fights later in the game.

Jungle Plan

Prioritize controlled full clears and only contest Scuttle when lane priority supports safe fights.
Track Evelynn's pathing to counter-gank her post-6 stealth ganks and prevent picks.
Use long-range (E) to gank lanes vulnerable to flank pressure, then transition vision control for dragon and Rift Herald setups.

Danger windows

Zac is vulnerable to early invades before gaining tank stats and vision control.
Isolated river fights are risky without lane priority or vision support.
Low-health clears and forced smite fights can be punished by Evelynn's post-6 pick potential.

Early game

Start with a full clear or a defensive path away from Evelynn's early invades to protect camps.
Avoid contesting first Scuttle unless nearby lanes have priority to support.
Use fog and wall angles for early ganks rather than predictable river paths to minimize Evelynn's counterplay.

Power spikes

Zac's level 6 unlocks long-range engage and disruption, enabling impactful ganks and objective fights.
Zac's tank scaling after first items strengthens frontline durability, improving objective control.
Evelynn's level 6 stealth spike demands Zac respect flank angles and rely on vision to avoid picks.

Win conditions

Survive early game by avoiding risky river contests and protecting camps.
Use long-range (E) to create gank pressure on pushed or isolated lanes, converting tempo into dragon and Rift Herald control.
Leverage Zac's tank scaling and engage tools to initiate teamfights and deny Evelynn's pick attempts through vision and frontline presence.
