Who the fuck thought it's a good idea for Jax to be strong the entire game?

He is strong late game we know that, but why the fuck is he a problem in the early game. Who the fuck thinks it's a good idea for most Jax's to start E level 1 then auto win the trades because of his fucking auto attacks immunity and Aoe damage reduction while also being able to attack himself.

At level 6, OH I'M JAX I GET DEFENSIVE STATS FOR FREE BECAUSE I BUILD DAMAGE.

Jax can 1v1. Can split push. Can team fight. Strong early, mid and late. Tanky because of ult and E, might as-well call this guy a hyper mobile unkiteable juggernaut. Gets free attack speed while other champions have to spend money.

Make the game follow the animation. If Jax uses E, he should not be allowed to auto attack but pause the passive stacks.

AND

Make his Q cooldown longer at all ranks. Camille E cooldown is 16 / 14.5 / 13 / 11.5 / 10 while Jax Q cooldown is 10 / 9 / 8 / 7 / 6. Rank 1 Jax Q is the same cooldown as Rank 5 Camille E. Change Jax Q cooldown to Camille's E cooldown especially since this fucking champion builds CDR and can use Q every 3 seconds and also has a lower mana cost.

Tank stats with assassin level burst and ADC level of DPS. Fuck Jax.

Know what fucking gets me? Jax was sht not too long ago. People were even begging for buffs for him.

Riot changed nothing. The Champ wasn't touched.

Now suddenly he's OP? JAX hasn't changed from when he was underpowered. The environment changed. Yes, he's strong now, but the problem isn't his numbers it's the new runes/items which are fking everything up.

Honestly, I'd like to see someone put up a well-thought-out analysis on how runes and new items are distorting the power balance in LOL. I'm tired of these useless threads which claim X champ is OP Y champ is UP, while completely ignoring the underlying problem.

I am kinda fine with jax being a powerful duelist later on, but you are right, true damage is way too powerful for something that is obtainable early and jax uses it extremely well too.

The combo of having pretty short cooldowns all around later on also does make him pretty frustrating, at max rank with max CDR his E only has like 4,5 seconds downtime......this is kinda ridiculous given how powerful the ability is.

It needs like.....6 seconds at the very least, because as long as his Q CD also remains short then its truly too much.

As a long time Hashinshin Fan i gotta say you are just wrong.

No foreal pls jsut nerf Jax already he is way too strong. I know he is supposed to be a late game monster but its simply not fair that he can literally 1v5 a team with a decent tank, a cc support and assassin. And our ad carry cant do anything cuz his aa just get dodged and then jax jumps on him and clubs down my team one by one. What a nice champ. Thank you riot.

One of the larger issues is Jax being able to go Triforce into Essence Reaver then build full tank.

Daily silver expert Jax hate thread.Except Jax's Q is his only mobility tool unlike Camille who can control enemies at range,has 2 part dash with cc + steroid on it and another dash with invulnerabiliy frames and non-escapable zone.His dodge is his iconic ability too and suddenly it became so problematic,nice dude.Blame early game runes like tonic warp so he can abuse ppl early game and then scale up.

Camille's has a built in cc and attack speed boost, can close over double the distance, and can hop over walls without a target. Why are you comparing it to Jax's Q?

I'll never understand bads. The champion has been basically the same since season 1. Suddenly he's overpowered and wtf broken. Jesus. Just get good at the game and stop crying.

Why are you trying to trade with Jax level one knowing he has his stun up?

daddyslìlmonster10/15/2018, 8:20:03 PM4 votes

Few matchups that jax wins easily. A lot of champions can stomp him early if you actually learn to lane matchups you’ll come find how hard he can be abused. Seems like you just got shit on without respecting the enemy top laner and came here to rant about it. If you think jax is bad clearly you haven’t faced a good irrlia

Comparing Jax q to Camille e. Lol. People actually upvoting this garbage.

HA I am Shaco HA10/15/2018, 10:06:56 PM3 votes

The difference between Jax Q and Camille E is: Jax HAS to have a target in order to use it/ Camille just needs a wall that she can go over. Jax Q doesn't stun you/ Camille E stuns you Jax Q doesn't have insane range/ Camille E hits you from Jamaica

and Camille can also do an E+Flash, im also sure Camille E is aoe.

Funny thing I started playing in season 7 and always thought of Jax as " OP " and hated him even at the beginning of Season 8 had some arguments when I said Jax is strong , believe or not I was downvoted and the ones who replied " Jax is weak and needs buffs " got the upvotes
