So,I have 51k on this guy.I used to play him alot back when Guinsoos+Gunblade was busted as fuck.Then I kinda stopped playing him.Then the Guinsoos got changed and stuff.Now I'm trying to pick him back up but I just can't seem to have ANY luck with him.Always getting negative KDA's,wether it's AP,Hybrid,Tank,Full AD...Just can't get him going at all.Tips?Maybe a build?and stuff I should know?

hey man ill add you and show you a few tricks of mine for this bad boy.
My normal build for Jax jungle after removal of Sated and Rework of Guinsoo's is Bloodrazor ==> Sheen + Stinger ====> Hextech Revolver/Finish Trinty ====> Finish Hextech Gunblade. Ninja Tabi somewhere in there. I like getting Tiamat after then finish a Spirit Visage. Last item, I finish Tiamat into Titanic Hydra.
For runes and masteries it varies. I always take 10% CDR in my masteries now, (9 flat CDR blues and 1 flat CDR quint) so that I get 40% CDR after full build or with Trinity and blue.
I also always take scaling HP yellows because Jax gets a lot of resists from his ult.
For reds and two quints, that depends on my masteries. I either go A.Speed with Fevor or Strength of the Ages, or I go hybrid/armor penetration with Thundlerlords.
If I think I need to be really tanky or can't burst down their team too fast, I go Strength of the Ages. If their team is really tanky, I go Fervor of Battle.
If I want to snowball early, and they have a lot of squishies to burst down, I go Thunderlord's Decree (1 W is two stacks for Thunderlord's, so AA + W = Thunderlord's proc)

With Strength of the Ages, you might want Vampiric Scepter before a Hextech Revolver
Also, I've played no fervor games recently. If you are going lane Jax, I recommend switching out Bloodrazor for Blade of the Ruined King and going Fervor.
i have 180k on jax and I can't play him anymore. I couldn't play him after they nerfed his passive to stacks. i literally have the hardest time playing my most played champion in the game. hes just too weak in the laning phase and the era of damage farm junglers phased out. I mean he just has no sustain in lane. hes too squishy and his damage is just item reliant. he feels like a top lane version of kassadin.
team fights start and i just get exahusted and killed immediately. if the stun duration was longer i can at least make a stun play or something but 1 second doesn't do jack shit. make it 1.5 at least
also his ultimate active is worthless. armor and mr on an ult ability without sustain or health or anything or sickiness is just terrible. graves gets more resistances from a basic ability. put the resistances on his E. and give him a new ultimate active.
maybe he was always a bad champion i really never found any success with him in ranked no matter how hard i try. play him top and get demolished in laning phase. play him in jungle and the enemy team will waste everything on you in team fights and delete you before you finish a leap strike.
currently hes labeled as skirmisher. like riven and yasuo. however. I can't build full damage on jax and get away with it like these two. due to lack of stickiness.
like the other day i was playing him against trundle which jax supposedly counters. i go for cs. and trundle Qs me and fucks me up. even after i used my and stuff i can't out sustain or outtrade him. i literally never seen a top lane jax ever win lane in my elo. because of how weak he is early game.
