While also being tankier

They don't.

Compare damage dealt charts

Nice try

Oh I see, you're too much of an idiot to figure out why a single target melee champion does less overall damage to champions than an AOE champion with ranged abilities.

My bad.

if you could read your own chart you would see that in the top lane.

illaoi, jayce, cho gath, panth, fiora, riven etc etc

are all higher than

naut, malphite, mundo, maokai, shen.

I also see Jax at 25 on that list, and Maokai at 49 on that list? So what are you getting at?

Doesn't really matter if you out damage, if they are winning more games, that's all that matters.

Not only that, Jax is a strictly single target combat fighter. Moakai is an AoE team-fighter. It isn't difficult to figure this out dude. Especially when you consider Jax's ult does no damage outside of passive and Moakai's does quite a bit in extended fights.

And Jax's preference is to split push all game where as Maokai wants to team fight....If anything, I would be shocked if Jax had more damage dealt than Maokai. That would be a sign that Jax is overtuned....yet again.

The same is directly applicable to Malphite as well.

Because AoE damage will outdamage single target damage if the AoE hits multiple targets.

The upshot is that in a 1v1 fight Jax will obliterate AoE centric characters.... it's not complicated.
