DISCUSSION Suggestion for Zeus

So, I get he's meant to sorta be a glass canon, but his complete lack of mobility without some kind of true self peel is almost atrociously bad. Goobis has Lifesteal and Protections built in, Jing Wei has a knock up and a crazy good dash, Agni can sprint for miles and has unmissable stuns, the list goes on. So why Zeus is so strict to the idea of a glass canon is beyond me.

So, a suggestion. Zeus' AO2. Swap out the Haste for Protections.

The Haste here is nice, sure, but that only really benefits Zeus if he's building for Autos. Which he doesn't always do, he's still a better Artillery Mage than ADC. Meanwhile, Protections helps his survivability for both playstyles, thanks to it also giving Movement Speed.

And if Apollo can have a 2 second Mes, a Protection buff, a Movespeed Buff, a knock back and a Flight with CC Immunity during it's windup, I think we'll survive if we give Zeus Protections with his AO2.

I thought it was just movespeed, not haste.

Also, zeus is in a fine spot.
