Why cinderhulk on Jax jg

d4rkshock··1 votes·2,383 views

So I play shyvana jg with Jax as my backup. I've just learned that people are now building cinderhulk on Jax jg. I've always just built bloodrazor. This is the first I've heard of it. Anyways, it seems bloodrazor is still a thing but not as much as before. I understand after tri-force,you get tank items. I actually still run hextech gunblade though. Anyways why has this started to pop up on a hypercarry jg.

this was first brought to life due to LCK (Korea championship series) lacking other options when j4 sej or skarner are banned or picked they just like to turn every champ into a tank.

works pretty good on jax due to the nature of his kit having armor mr atk speed steroid on hit magic damage.

Jax lives and dies more on his base damages than from the damage he gets from items... you usually only need one or two damage items on him and he will perform more than fine in most situations so why not just build tanky things that also provide some slight form of extra damage when building your tank items?

4% of Max health is meh. It is also not AoE. Damage per second AoE + tankiness is far better.

Shyv being an exception due the nature of Q and Q (while dragon form).

If I'm behind early game with Jax, I'd rather build cinderhulk into a Deadman's plate, then Triforce and Titanic Hydra. Building glass cannon if you're behind is a bit pointless imo
