The Zac versus Pantheon matchup in the jungle is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
The magic damage that Zac deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Pantheon deals mainly physical damage (88.07%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Zac is higher farming statistics (ranked 50th among role champions) (versus 60th for Pantheon), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.7 versus 3.3) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Zac player to maintain constant pressure on Pantheon, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
