Hey guys, Necro here to fulfill post number two for this week. Also, I'm sorry that it's not Vi. No worries, my girl Vi is next :D
As the title suggests, this is about Jax. Now, most people hate Jax, and says that he;s just OP. Now, I know that labeling Champions as OP is kinda mainstay for most people in the League community, BUT, I just had to see for myself just how "OP" Jax was, and I'm glad I got that chance. I myself have always hated Jax for his ability to annihilate me if (or, when, it's always just a matter of time) he gets the Trinity Force... but now I love him, enough that, I even bought the sum'bitch.
Now that I'm done pseudo obsessing over Jax, let me break him down to you. Jax's passive is called Relentless Assault. Now, on the League of Legends website, it simply says that each consecutive basic attack increases attack speed. It does, don't get me wrong, but it has a certain number of stacks (I think it's six or seven) until it hits it's maximum. Still pretty fucking useful.
His Q is called Leap Strike. Now this is pretty self explanatory You activate it, target some poor champion, and leap on them. It's pretty good for assassination since it has some pretty kickass range. Honestly, I landed some really sweet kills this way, also, I didn't know this was a thing, but I jumped over Lux's ult when I used Leap Strike. I'll have to try it again to know if it's a thing. Uhh, not much I can say about this...
His W Is called Empower. This is a pretty useful one. It's also short, sweet, and to the point. Empower, in a nutshell, strengthens your next attack. This works with basic attacks (for beating down turrets this is especially useful) and jumping on champions. (Gotta feel bad after a while...) So yeah... Empower!
His E is called Counter Strike. This is actually the most important of his abilities to me actually. What it does is upon activation it sets Jax in a defensive position (Of which is twirling his lamp-post around his head, how that's defensive I'll never fucking know) for two seconds, and after those two seconds, he spins around dealing damage. This actually adds some damage for each hit you dodge (By the way, he dodges most everything in this mode. All basic attacks and 25% reduced damage from AoE attacks.) in increments of 20% bonus damage (If you can do math, if you dodge five hits you do double damage.) What I found out is that you can actually use this on Vilemaw! Not sure how it works with Baron Nashor (presumably it's the same) but yeah, fucking Vilemaw can be counterstriked! Gods damn it it felt good when I found that out. Also, counterstrike was how I got my triple kill (It was also an Ace, Twisted Treeline) before I went to solo him. Man I love Counter Strike
But his R is called Grandmaster's Might. Grandmaster's Might for me is mainly useful for its passive, where every third basic attack adds additional magic damage. It's active is giving Jax additional Armor and Magic Resistance for 10 seconds, so go into crowds, use this, Counterstrike, and mop them up. In a nutshell.
Umm... I kinda abused the game when I played Jax, so I didn't get to round off my build, but I can tell you what I was intending on doing XD
Ninja Tabi
Trinity Force
Hextech Gunblade
Infinity Edge
Nashor's Tooth
(Honestly build whatever the fuck you want here XD)
I know this was a little short, but honestly, Jax is so... simple and efficient, he doesn't need a long review like most other champions. It should also be noted that when I finished up my game (I went 31-0-1) my best friend went to bed because he was too angry at me to continue being awake.
Alright, that's it for me. Also check out the Author's Picks. I didn't notice them until now XD
