He can't counter jungle you well and in teamfights, your abilities will be able to peel and knock Jax away from your team. His dodge cannot block your abilities.
Kindred
A good kindred will be able to 1v1 you at all stages in the game. Highly recommended to ward your jungle entrances so you know where she is, especially if she tries to stack her passive using a marked camp in your jungle.
How to win? Survive early, countergank her, and take away marked camps when possible.
Master Yi
Yes you can displace him in teamfights even when his ult is up, however he is a great splitpusher and with the new Bloodrazor+BoTRK he can tear through your HP come lategame if your e and r are on cd
Volibear
Early game he can invade the hell out of you, and with his passive up, you cannot win a fight against him. Lategame both of you should be supertanks, and you will be able to peel for your team against him in teamfights. Your W deals percent HP damage so lategame won't be too much of an issue
Evelynn
She can counterjungle you early and especially if she is building damage you can't really 1v1 her until mid-lategame, if that. You will have the better teamfight, not her.
Gragas
Gragas is a fairly even matchup. He can displace you before you can use your ultimate in teamfights, but if he uses it offensively like most Gragas's do, then you should have a field day against the back line of his team.
Lee Sin
He can invade the hell out of you early game, and keep the pressure on your laners as well as yourself while possibly snowballing into lategame. Recommended to ward jungle entrances and countergank him instead of fighting him straight up (early game). If you survive early, you should dominate him in teamfights later on.
Trundle
Trundle is a tank killer. You are a tank. If you fight him you will lose every time if he knows what he's doing. If you build full tank against him he can just ult you in every teamfight and potentially steamroll each one. Build more damage against trundle than you would normally.
Amumu
You can counterjungle him early on until he hits 6. You can displace him before he ults, and if he ults your team, you can be in the middle of the enemy team. Always a safe Pick against Amumu but it isn't exactly paradise come lategame
Ekko
His jungle clear is pretty bad and you might be able to counterjungle him if your clears are healthy. Teamfights will be in your favor. Don't worry about this matchup. Should be a walk in the park.
Fiddlesticks
You both work the same way.engage from where the enemy can't see you. If you ward those select location that you prefer to slingshot from, you can easily predict when he uses his ultimate, and you can displace him away from your team if he does so, and win every teamfight.
Xin Zhao
He can invade you early and set you behind, but once you reach level 6 or so he should not be a problem. Your teamfights are superior, but you can't fight him 1v1 until late.
Vi
You don't want to be fighting her 1v1 at all, and counterganks work wonders against her. She shouldn't invade you, but if she does, be sure to use your E as an escape mechanism AFTER she q's you. If you are charging up your e before she hits you with q, you will be interrupted and probably die. Your teamfights are better than hers and you can definitely outplay her in the laning phase.
Please refer to my other "tank zac" guide for jungle matchups as playing Zac. My only change would be against Trundle. Since you're dealing much more damage than as a tank, Trundle becomes so much easier to play against since you should be able to chunk him much easier. You should still be cautious early game though.
Hey guys, Zac is a champ that is very good at initiating and disrupting fights, as well as being a massive, unkillable tank. Zac has the most unique ganks of all champions in the game, and he can carry any game to victory if you know how to play him right.
Zac is my favorite champion and by far my best so I will help everyone else who might want to play or main Zac one day!!
Pros of Tank Zac
Pros of Tank Zac
-You are extremely tanky lategame
-You have a great, safe initiate
- More forgiving than "Bruiser Zac"
Cons of Tank Zac
Cons of Tank Zac
-Weaker early game
-You lack the damage to fight off invaders if they come
-Harder to carry with imo, especially if the rest of your team isn't dishing out much damage
Bruiser Zac?
Bruiser Zac?
It's a risky build and I would only recommend it against squishier teams. It is a lot of fun.
Being a confident Zac player, I usually find this odd build to be more successful than my full tank one since i'm both tanking and dishing out tons of damage at the same time. You'd be surprised how much damage you can do, as well as tanking for your team in teamfights.
Why does it work? Zac has pretty good AP scaling and with the 20 magic pen in my runes along with abyssal you will be shredding through the enemy team dealing bonus true damage essentially.
Pros of "Bruiser Zac"
Pros of "Bruiser Zac"

Cons of "Bruiser Zac"
Cons of "Bruiser Zac"
-You are squishier in all stages of the game (compared to Tank Zac)
-You are more reliant on hitting your e to be effective
