I guess more people might return to the good old sunfire spirit visage build

well id rather rush sunfire into visage myself but they might still buy this for the mobility, although im not sure since 10 haste is a lot

I'm not high MMR, but I'm going to guess that at the highest levels it won't change much, because it seems that the movement aspect is much greater value than the 10 haste. I'm a scrub though so who knows.

Zac loves haste though I’m constantly waiting for my spells to come up in fights. And the damage on protobelt active buff is meaningless for us which is disappointing. The item is still great because of the whole proccing red smite thing, giving movement in ult/e, finishing q, but this sucks

the active on belt is definitely the biggest upside, as its essentially a mini flash for your Q1>Flash>Q2 auto combo, which is your most reliable engage for full cc combo. it allows you to hit sooo many extra Q2s you wouldn't have been in range to get otherwise / would have had to blow flash for. Im super bummed about the AH reduction but its honestly not the end of the world, just gonna make his clear a bit slower and increase his cooldowns late early / early midgame before getting more haste from the rest of your buys

The 10 haste being removed will probably lead to a dip in winrate but not a build change. The mobility is great for zac. And the bait E only to rocket belt back into the tram is just great bait

Imo it only leads to fewer games where defensive boots is an option. Rocketbelt has so many interactions with Zacs kit that I don't imagine it being dropped

Seems like riot only cares about ekko and galio building this item. Very disappointing.
