Read from Dr. Mundo's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Zac.
This is Dr. Mundo's own plan; across 870 pooled games the lane is even.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Dr. Mundo | You out-poke Zac at Level 1 before his CC chain is online. |
| Level 2 | Dr. Mundo | At Level 2 your Q and E still beat his blob throws. |
| Level 3 | Zac | Level 3 tilts to Zac as his double-Q grab plus E give him a CC trade. |
| Levels 4-5 | Zac | Levels 4-5 favour Zac's CC and blob sustain over your poke. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even: his R is a gank tool and your R heals through his solo poke. |
| First item | Dr. Mundo | At first item your Q sustain and E out-trade his utility kit 1v1. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | At 2+ items both are unkillable tanks and it's a skill wash. |
You own Levels 1-2: before Zac has his Q-plus-E CC chain online, your Q Infected Bonesaw and E out-poke his blob throws and he can't punish you. Shove, deny his blob pickups after trades, and build a CS lead before his combo comes together.
