How to win lane as Camille against Zac · 51.55% win rate over 291 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | You both have weak level 1s, but his goo blobs out-sustain your poke — start W and only commit a trade if you can step on the blobs after to deny the heal. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | His Stretching Strikes (Q) pull and Slingshot knock-up make committing risky before your Hookshot is up — farm safe and hold E rather than facecheck a long fight. |
| Level 3 | Camille | W's outer edge deals max-HP damage and heals you off him faster than his blobs refill — win the short trade and stamp the blobs to keep your lead. |
| Levels 4-5 | Camille | Your re-cast Q true-damage hit plus W%-HP out-chunk a stat-stick tank that has no burst back — short trades favour you as long as you deny his blob heals. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | R isolates him away from his team and his loose blobs so he can't Slingshot out — a clean even-skill window where positioning, not stats, decides it. |
| First item | Camille | Sheen into Trinity Force makes your Q reset and E stun lethal before he completes Sunfire or Thornmail — force the all-in now while he's still squishy for a tank. |
| Two+ items | Zac | Full-build Zac revives from a blob and his E knock-up out-values your single-target burst — don't try to solo-delete him, split and let your team handle the front line. |
Levels 1-2 are a clean skill phase — you both want short trades, but the goo blobs he drops on ability use let him heal back anything you poke, so don't burn HP unless you can step on the blobs afterward to deny the pickup. Start W for the outer-edge max-HP damage and self-heal, and respect that his Q (Stretching Strikes) pulls you in and his W (Unstable Matter) nukes you for flat magic damage at point-blank. Don't facecheck for a Hookshot before your E is reliable; eat a Slingshot or a Q pull with no escape up and a poke trade becomes a fight you lose.
