Void Spikes' mana cost actually scales way more aggressively than anything Jayce will use repeatedly in lane, which makes Tear way more appealing on Kha'zix than Jayce. This is likewise reflected by Manamune being more common on Kha'zix than Jayce. What? A level one accelerated shock blast costs 105 mana, thats more than level five void spikes. | ||

Void Spikes' mana cost actually scales way more aggressively than anything Jayce will use repeatedly in lane, which makes Tear way more appealing on Kha'zix than Jayce. This is likewise reflected by Manamune being far more common on Kha'zix than Jayce. Jayce ranged W is the primary reason to get a manamune. The mana utility is very nice, but the real attraction is adding ~150 damage(100 magic, ~50 physical) on 3(4 including the reset) autoattacks at high attack speed. Assuming you are building glass cannon poke jayce, melee form is used primarily after engage has happened to finish somebody. As for the soloq/OGN builds on jayce. manamune brut LW and tear brut BT are roughly equivalent cost. Second build will do more damage to squishies, but does laughable damage to somebody with 150+ armor. The LW build ensures that it always hurts regardless of target, and ensures that no matter who you hit, 2 shock blasts will pretty much always force somebody off of turret. Having tried both, I think the LW route is better even in soloq. Yes burst damage suffers on squishies, but you will still force a squishy to base after one or two shots, and you also take non-negligible amounts of health off a tank. | ||

ToG is essentially a gp10 item that gives you mana instead of gold. It gives mana at a very aggressive rate (effectively 26 gp10 worth of mana for someone who can stack it on CD, less for someone who uses spells less often), but you do have to realize that it IS still an item that shifts your item timings in the way that a gp10 item does (although obviously more smoothly because of how fast it generates mana). | ||

¨ On another note i fucking suck at this game since I started working, started playing d3, torchlight and Sc2, i used to meet popular streamers at least 10-50 % of my games in s1, now hardly never. Going to tryhard playing on Graves, Ez, Vayne, Lee, Rengar so i can at least hit diamond 2 before season ends. | ||

I've considered getting tear on Jayce but I've had several games where it took me a long time to stack tear. 26+ minutes when I rushed it. Usually with Jayce you do want to hit an accelerated shock blast whenever you have the opportunity. I remember one time someone said it doesn't matter which order you use EQ. It actually is huge. Your opponents wait for the E to fire before their brains go into "dodge" mode. QE gives less time for your opponent to react than EQ and whenever you get a chance to hit them with a QE you take it because mana is less important than health. Often on Jayce you have to hit the minions in order to hit the enemy champ and the accelerated blast allows you to do that with the increased radius. Still, often time you can get a doran's blade and 5 health pots + wards on your first back instead of tear. I've played Kha before and he has nowhere near the mana problems Jayce has. All you do is use your spikes a bit less on creeps and don't jump around needlessly and he has no mana problems. His other abilities don't cost too much unless he gets lots of resets on his jump. Jayce's level 9 combo is 315 mana and that doesn't include any heavy costing ults. After that he continues using 315 mana in each combo and he pokes a lot more with QE than Kha does since QE has longer range than Kha's W. Kha'zix's combo with his ult is 275. After that his combo costs 175 mana per cycle + 50per jump. The difference is night and day. Edit: level 9 Jayce. His costs go up a bit more with levels. | ||

Aren't there alot of good players in chinese server? I thought there would be more good players there due to alot of people having experience with dota 1. Kinda like the case with sc2 in kr. | ||
