The new Maokai seems to be a fantastic jungler, recent updates on tank items and support utility items, including the new and revamped Thornmail, make this guy almost on par with Zac in terms of presence. Sure, he doesn't have a superfast, devastating engage like Zac's. But he does have a crap ton of peel that makes any ADC playing on your team super happy. The new ult is arguably better than the old one, you can gank with it, you can peel, you can halt enemy engage attempts, and you can stall for time at objectives. Less expensive tank items also give him much faster powerspikes. You just need to make sure you run 4.5% full movespeed in your quints, because he is really, really slow.
