What an incredible video. Great insight from a fantastic Zac player! Hearing from Engage would always be awesome, but your preparation raises the quality even more. You bringing pre-researched questions and conjectures makes these type of videos absolutely top tier.
Really wish there was tiny discussion on his choice of anathemas chains. Also would love insight on top ban options. Fantastic video and great learning
Thanks so much for this video Nathan and Engage. I already ate a lot of both your content and I keep coming back to this video for solidifying my mindset. Im a plat Zac main (and climbing) and engage is a big inspiration. I agree with a lot what he says and he adds so much more context and nuance. He truly is one with the champion.
this is awesome i love these videos lately, just two really good players discussing and exploring how they think about the game - really amazing stuff.
These type of videos are EXTREMELY helpful! It has improved me significantly over these past days... Even though my OTP (Wukong) pick isn't featured in these videos, I still improved so much with these. Only problem for me with THIS video is that he SPOILED the last game! Just kidding... It's fine! XD
Nathan long time fan here. I love what you preach about the game but I’m having difficulty’s with reviewing my gameplay. I was wondering if you could make a video going in depth on what a good review looks like.
Great video as always! I am not so sure about starting herlad right after that top gank. To me it looks like hecarim will be able to contest it from base. Zac has no HP ult or passive, while hecarim has items and hp. Top wants to reset and the game is already in a really good state. Isn’t it safer to reset and move to clear bot camps? Or (if one beliefs herald to be important) reset and move straight to it?
I personaly begin zac and I'm surprise because I thought that his early game was not that bad, I just outplay and I destroy all most every game. I'm not very hight it must be the reason
YES! Zac feels awful in the beginning of the game. you need like 3 levels in E before it feels worth anything. That's level 5 damn! Meanwhile WW or Udyr are getting leads. It sucks. I was a Zac OTP. He's one of my favorite champs.
hypothesis why very low Zac pick rate : people like me who think they can one day pilot their favorite assassin to high elo, why play Zac when I can lock in Kha’zix*. Zac is not a sexy champion design for the plat and below like me, “reliant on team because a tank” toxic perception, not free elo, specialized gank pattern like Nunu or Rek’sai. His visual design is also literally just green blob. I’m sure once I watch this video I’ll see all sorts of awesome nuances and positives for Zac but for an average player it’s, idk if this is accurate but, “low dopamine” champion. * I say this sarcastically about myself, I know that I should not be playing khazix to climb as a silver-gold, I should really just play Vi or Xin Zhao or other “simpler” fighter if I want assassin-like playstyle and get better at league at same time. I’ve signed “soloq contract” to not climbing since I want to play Kha’zix in ranked as a low elo player. However most non-BBC-mentality players genuinely have mindset of “I will carry my team with huge damage and 1v9 pentakill I’m so good” and think they are only held back by [insert toxic narrative].
Thank you for having me was a lot of fun
These are definitely the best educational jungle videos out there. Love it.
Glad to hear you find them helpful

Just when I thought I couldn't love Nathan anymore. He whips out the guide for my main.

This and The donghuap video, Engage is getting a spotlight today
You're looking at pic rate for Zac top 🙃 Jungle is still low, just above 3% in most ranks. Thanks for the great long format content!!
Haha, that's embarassing
Also it's not Gold+, that only shows for Gold specifically
@@nathanmott Much easier to criticize than create 🤪 Thanks again I learned a lot from this.

Great video as always!

58:50 WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING 3 MINUTES IN THIS GAME

Sooo you and dong uploaded at the same time on purpose?

Without League of Legends, what would these guys be doing? Flipping burgers?

Early game of zac is bad?????
Yes. Zac before lvl 4 is bad.
Great content. These are a not only good to learn champions but to know how to play against these champions as well.
