Jax Has No Counterplay

I play Teemo into Jax

I go 9/0/x within 15m

Jax buys Triforce and then gets SoS

Jax suddenly gets a triple kill and now is an unstoppable beast that cannot be shut down His E does 50% of my health even without people attacking them and the Blind I have is useless due to the Merc Boots

This champion has absolutely no counterplay, if he gets to late game it's GG because SoS is an ABOMINATION to say the least.

It's fucking disgusting that I can shut them down so hard and they STILL somehow become ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTINGLY BROKEN JUST FOR BUYING 1 ITEM

And it doesn't help that he has a damage gap closer, an AA reset that does magic damage, an AOE STUN DODGING E THAT SCALES OFF DAMAGE ABSORBED, and the "Become a Tank with passive magic damage on AA's" button.

This happened on my "MysticElephant" account.

You played Teemo into Jax... this is the literal definition of "I need to end the game quickly and destroy him in lane otherwise once he gets a couple items I'm screwed."

Same thing could be said about Tryn or many others -- you crush them early but once they have their items you're screwed in a 1 vs 1.

of what jax had at the time he actually engaged for that triple.

was he set up for it by someone else? did he gain a level advantage when you attempted to 1v1?

Ahhh, I see, you and Reinhard couldn’t end the game, Jax got to scale because you didn’t end the game and Kat fed, got it.

Jax has more counterplay then every juggernaut in the game. Juggernaut are a terribly designed class tbh. They just build one damage item and then pure tank and delete your whole team.

A Bold and inaccurate statement to make.
