I know that Taric,Yorick and WW are next in plans for rework after Shen but is Jax in any plans in foreseeable future?I think that he is in dire need for VU and his kit is really outdated and dont represent what League is all about now.

VU yes but his kit while slightly outdated feeling is rather good design with clear strengths and weaknesses and still is functional in the game today while Taric WW Yorick have elements that make them unfun to play or play against. WW has super bland gamplay,Yorick you dont get to lane. Taric doesnt do anything. Jax is still fun to play and play against. imo they really need to add Shacco to the list

I was thinking what Riot said about Velkoz - they want him to get picked because he will bring unique gameplay and strategic reasoning behind his selection.And Jax maybe is to some extent fun but he is picked just because he is OP atm(there is no strategy behind this, he will do the same things every game).I played him a lot at the end of the last ranked season for one reason - easy victory(get rageblade, devourer if i was jungle and split push).Always the same boring gameplay(for me).He doesnt have place in this League...

I feel people say jax is OP for the following 1) he snowballs well due to his hard scaling 2) He is great duelist. Now both of these things are good in solo Q because of the difficulty in team cordination so you can run around finding 1v1 and 1v2 and winning then getting fed and before you know it you need a 4 man gank to take you down. I feel certain champs have playstyles that people dont know or like paying against. With jax you just have to accept you wont be able to duel him with most champs unless you are way ahead. Try grouping and forcing objectives. or gank him early to slow him down. Just in solo q especialy in low elo people like to fight all the time and most of the time fighting is the wrong choice to make
