Zac vs Volibear Counter Pick

Sustain rather than burst settles this one. Frenzied Maul heals Volibear when it is recast on a marked target, and Cell Division sheds pieces of Zac that restore health when reabsorbed, two engines that keep a fight running long past the point where a fragile jungler would leave. Across 121 games on patch 16.13.1 the edge sits with Zac at 53.7%, a modest margin from a modest sample.

• Unstable Matter takes a percentage of maximum health as magic damage, which scales against Volibear’s 2,418 health at level 18 far better than any flat number would.
• Volibear’s output is physical and lands on 33 armour early and 112.9 late, while his own 32 magic resist has to absorb everything Zac casts.
• Attack ranges are close at 175 against 150, so neither side pokes; both need a committed jump from Elastic Slingshot or Stormbringer.
• Base move speed is identical at 340, which leaves Thundering Smash, granting speed toward enemies, as the only free approach available.

The execution gap is wide, Volibear rated 3 against Zac’s 8, so this record shows a harder champion converting a genuine advantage rather than an easy one. Holding Let’s Bounce! until Sky Splitter has been used for its shield puts the knock-up on a target with no mitigation left.
