Fuck huni for picking him, literally the only reason team ice won is because jax is broken. he could basically one shot the carries without even trying, great job rito way to balance the champions, and pick commentators who dont even address it
The Bíg Ticket2 votesThey play on 5.23...Jax is not even good anymore...under 50% winrate.
Trumps Nipples1 votesyeah i mean at whatever elo we play at, not at theirs genius, if you think jax was balanced for that your an idiot
The Bíg Ticket1 votesSilver V talking about elo....rofl. Jax was broken on 5.23 which is the patch they play allstars on. Now we have 5.25. Rageblade got its cost increased and Aoe nerfed while the Fervor of battle mastery got nerfed hard, Jax is back to pre-preseason state again.
Trumps Nipples1 votesno shit hes not good anymore, yet in the patch theyre playing on right now, in esports (which is the board i posted it in) (Which is the only situation in which it would pertain) HE IS STILL BROKEN. i dont really play ranked anyway i play league to have fun, maybe you and your team should give it a try sometime
The Bíg Ticket1 votesSo why do you wanna talk about his balance when you know he is not even good anymore? His item and his mastery got nerfed, preseason has always had unbalanced champs due to item and mastery changes. I hope you remember when you could stack Black Cleaver and Talon was the most broken champ in the game...or preseason 5 Warwick with challenging smite.
Trumps Nipples1 votesyes but this is the allstar event, not normal play. You would think that riot would have thought through that and nerfed an unbalanced item before the event. and its not about balance if i wanted to make a post about balance it would not be in the esports board. Im talking about how the only ( yes the only) reason that EU won that match is because huni carried them, they wouldnt have gotten baron without the play he made mid, and they wouldnt have snowballed from there without jax. Thats my point in this post, not that jax is op, that EU only won because of the ability of huni to snowball like he did
The Bíg Ticket2 votesAs I told you in the other post, any champ can engage on 4 members pushing mid without their adc and wards on the side. A Hecarim ult would have done exactly the same. NA picks and early game comp with lanebullies like Lucian and Syndra, EU picks a scaling comp with Jax and Anivia..NA wins early game but then fucks up due to attempting a baserace vs champs that excel at baseraces and pushing mid without wards...EU late game comp takes over and wins the game...what a surprise. Since when have you been playing this game?
Trumps Nipples1 votesyes any champ can engage like that but not any champ can basically anal fuck 3 people like jax did, you just want to not address that jax was really strong that patch. In case you hadnt noticed NA had some troll ass picks, and we managed to kick EU's ass for the entire first half of the game like that. Jax and the late game scaling is the only reason they won. Not skill, just champs that have better scaling :) thanks for helping me prove my point
Muted Summoner1 votesThe fevor nerf was also a buff. Jax, when he autos, he gets it twice as fast (before "nerf" no stacks) and with his auto attack reset he can get 4 stacks of fevor and more in under 2 secs then you can add in 2 stack for ability damage every 2 seconds, especially when he has his atk speed passive going. Just because he can't start it up on minions he still has other ways to increase his atk speed with his kit to start fevor up and now gets 2 stacks each auto as opposed to one. 300 gold isn't much of an increase. Jax dropping in win rates is him getting banned more often and people having trouble adjusting to the change. Jax isn't op its certain items combined with masteries and a champion Like how Brand was, are op.
Warwick is not the same as the champion himself was nerfed as well along with the item. Jax doesn't need a nerf. He does need a buff, the issue is items are affecting him, making him more powerful than he should be. Warwick as well needs a buff and more than likely a complete rework.
Jax's Kit is very basic and simple he just all ins, deals damage either kills the target or doesn't, very much like Warwick. Another issue is because of his kit there is no champion skill involved and more about players skill knowing what you can and can't do atm, its just not fair. In fact he needs more of a rework or else he will stay in the mist of because hes to easy to play he shouldn't be that dominate in play. Jax has 1 avoidable skill being his stun and with Jaxs jump it normally requires Jax to misplay or a Blink to escape it.
There are other champions who follow the same format, go in do damage. Like Olaf, Aatrox, Tryndamere, Yi/etc the difference is Jax can Press an ability and become tanky while having shit tons of damage with an ability that avoids damage and it stuns.
