Jayce Buff Please.

I have played Jayce and I believe he needs some buffs. He has a decent laning phase and everything, but when it comes to later in the game he is very lacking. I think one of the main reasons is that he can't use his hammer stance when engaging/being engaged on, and his poke isn't that good because the cool down of his Shock Blast doesn't matter, its his Acceleration Gate cool down that prevents him from providing good poke. Imo it needs a cd reduction, and Jayce's Shock Blast needs even more increased damage when passing through it. Another buff that he needs is making his Shock Blast apply grievous wounds, that way the 1000 heals that are in the game won't fully negate his poke. I know earlier I mentioned hammer stance, but if they buff his poke I believe it will leave the enemies in a position where Jayce can use hammer stance after providing sufficient poke.

Riot wont buff his poke in that way you suggest. When im fed on Jayce in midgame, one shockblast can take 50% of an ADCs hp. However in lategame, his poke hardly scratches even a squishy with 1 armor item (like Zhonyas, GA). The trick is therefore to give him 5% armor pen on every rank in E. This simple buff would make Jayce perfect.

They just gave him a small buff last patch

Considering they specifically nerfed the cooldown on Acceleration Gate to reduce his poke, I doubt their go back on that decision.

Grevious Wounds wouldn't last long enough to prevent people from healing off his poke. It just means they have to wait a couple seconds before healing themselves.
