Alaric I'm going to listen to what scip said and call you out on this; I've reported you multiple times for thinly veiled QQ, no one in here wants to listen to you describe in detail every single solo Q game you play where something goes wrong. It belongs in shikyo and you fucking know it. Stop whining about how your ADC missed some autos, or you had lag or how FH is shit.

Irelia you can definitely get away with only Trifrorce, but BotRK is almost too good not to get on Jax.


So my understanding of the BotRK is that Jax wants to splitpush, so BotRK gives him a lot of dueling power and allows him to easily 1v1 anyone.

But people needs to understand (especially in soloQ) that it offers no survivability beside a bit of heal from the active and the life steal (which is really not too much, by the way). If you want to splitpush 24/7, sure, I can sort of see it, but if you into a 5v5 teamfight, that BotRK does very little good for you.

Also, even in a 1v1 situation I am not entirely convinced that BotRK is worth it. Jax will most likely win a straight up 1v1 duel against most champion anyway with just triforce.


If you get into a teamfight 4v4/5v5 Jax is going to do little good.

This. Go watch an OGN/LCS teamfight. Count the #of autoattacks that the melee champions get off. Preferably split it into two parts: During "teamfighting" and during "cleanup". Most get off 1-3 autos during the "fight", Jax's teamfight value is really as a cleanup guy, because he doesn't do much damage in them.


I didn't know soloQ games are comparable to OGN/LCS.

They aren't in all respects. Indeed, even when Jax was OP for competitive he wasn't for soloQ because his pressure wasn't as easy to take advantage of and his weak levels were not hidden by early laneswaps.

But the lack of meaningful autoattack damage for melee champions translates fairly well. Perhaps you just look at your own replays if you want to?

This has been happening for quite a while now. I think the Shikyo thread needs to be renamed.

I was under the impression that jax built BORTK more because its buildup and strength in lane. Its kind of hard to build tri in lane.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Isn't the the whole point for jax to tp into a fight and clean up isolated targets when there is not a lot of burst/ ults left to stop him.

Are you quoting me? Both actually build fairly nicely IMO. But I wasn't commenting much on that, just on jaxs teamfight.

That is what he is best at in "teamfights", but really his strength is taking objectives while the rest of the team delays. For teamfighting, if you can TP in late then clean up, your team is doing pretty good without you.

what? he had highest banrate for a reason, if jax started snowballing game was automatically 10x times harder to win

it's funny gleeb says he has bad mechanics when he actually has very good mechanics but probably just couldn't adjust to stage pressure.

with how widespread the definition of mechanics is in league he could mean anything by that and its just interpreted differently by everyone.

Hasn't his winrate always hovered around 45%?

Not nearly that low, but even with high ban rate it's not been great. The perception that he is some op champ is a classic lol cognitive dissonance/bias with regard to late game champions where players are like "I was 50 cs ahead and he solo killed me." Or other things like that.

In reality, jax has a surprisingly low solo queue win rate because split pushers like singed and trynd often have surprisingly high win rates. Also it probably has to do with the difference in how powerful tp is for cooperative play vs. Disorganized. So really never that great, even though jax is a great hero.

I'm not an expert, but isn't there a point where if Nasus is able to get enough items and stacks (and I'm not talking super late game), he just bonecrushes Teemo in the space of one Wither?
