Quick Note: Zhask is still a Mage, therefore even if he can inflict a good amount of damage, he is particularly vulnerable to burst damage. He lacks his Ultimate and is terribly vulnerable. Use your ultimate wisely because it can protect you from numerous threats. Also, after exiting your ultimate, stay close to it to be safe.
