More squishy, but he can still 1v1 so many people. Jumpin in, timing E right, and spamming that W. Plus, his ult is like, the best steroid I can think of.


I think Surge is made for Jax... lol
Want to test later.

For 200 gold less you get a Will of the Ancients. I'd rather have that.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

So, as a relative noob, is the consensus that there is no good counter-pick to Kennen top?

That is, there are picks that don't get completely stomped, but there's no way to effectively shut him down during laning phase?

I guess I should try him some day, then...

I was startled by how little health he has, he's got a totally different playstyle than old jax.

Yeah, there is no counter pick to a good kennen. You can only hope to go even with kennen.


On another note, 6 game win streak with eve, arguably one of the worst champions in the game.

Yeah, that's right, 6 game winstreak. Eve op'd.

Gragas has always been v.fun in the jungle; Body Slam's probably my favourite (or at least most intuitive-feeling) wall-jumping dash in the game, the damage reduction + bonus AD on Drunken Rage and your passive keeps you healthy; if you connect with Body Slam while you have red buff they're unlikely to get away, and once you have ult he's probably my second favourite jungler (behind Alistar) to terrorise people by coming at them from behind their tower if you can get your teammate to push their lane.

I kind of want to pick Kennen up, but I know I'm terrible at playing mage characters. Like, I can't play Brand, Xerath, Viktor, or Ahri. I can kind of play Ryze, mostly because I just spam buttons and get kills.

Does Kennen play like most AP mids?

Not really, he's got really good escape mechanics, so usually getting ganked isn't too big of an issue. But definitely one of the champions that you should practice quite a bit to get better. also land those surikens!, and harrass like crazy

I'm pretty decent at landing skillshots (I play Ez a lot), but I really more meant does he play that "blow all my skills then run away because now I'm useless" style? Like, I hate playing Brand because once you combo something, you're done, even if they're still up.

He's different from most AP mids, but he's also quite harder.

If it's a good Kennen it will just be a stale lane. With Kennen providing more support for ganks :p

Kennen gives more support for ganks early/mid game but Rumble will carry much harder in the late game

Yea...I'm thinking building him like rumble. WotA rush into Rylais then tanky? Maybe a Lichbane/Void Staff if you can afford it?
Or maybe just Triforce->Atmogs or Gunblade->Atmogs. Iunno...I don't like new Jax; he blows up really fast :[

Yeah, I had one lane against Olaf. Said it was his first game since the remake. He got trashed hard, I think he overestimated his abilility to withstand that true damage-thingy Olaf does, since he never really backed off and started with a lot of AP (something like 44 from runes/masteries alone).
