I wonder if Blitzcrank will ever budge from his status as one of the statistically best bans in the game. As of last patch he's in the top 5 on bestbans.com for every elo.

If you are a pro, Viktor.

trinity sizeable buff for irelia/jax/udyr
pretty decent buff for jax too
at this point its staring to look like ms quints+zerkers is a better buy than swiftness, even counting the early game losses.

now its just people who like blitz which is bad because his hook is crazy as fuck

I do think it's interesting that Riot often buffs Jax, when there are plenty of trash-tier champions that don't get buffs. I guess they really like his kit and hate whenever he starts getting weak (as opposed to say, Yorick). See also Corki.

nobody likes yorick.
Corki gets buffed is played every game then gets nerfed rinse repeat
they buff jax every 6 month and nobody plays him anyway LOL

Him and Ahri are popular, sell skins, and Riot thinks they make esports entertaining.

Jax probably will see some play at pro play as a top laner but probably as a red side pick. Ekko mid or AP Ekko top is going to wreck people harder with these changes due to the higher ap ratio on his ult damage and q.

which one is red side and why does it really matter

Red side starts at the top right and the reason why red side is because there plenty of bad match ups for jax in pro play even with these buffs so he will likely be a last pick champion in pro play.

I assume he thinks Jax has some bad matchups among T1/T2 champions.

why is the top right side easier???
if anything its more annoying because you can get ganked from behind
or do you mean he gets last pick
unless everyone picks top last this won't matter
its not like the pro players are going to randomly pick something they never played before to try and get a 20 cs lead
they can play like 4-5 champs well at any given game

Because you can pick the match up as last pick as he gets countered hard by Ekko, Poppy, and Maokai because all three of them can trade effectively vs Jax. Yes you will be more vulnerable to a gank from the tribush but that why you should se if your jungler can come for a counter gank.

do you want me to record videos playing against ekko poppy and maokai?
im not playing against the top brass but i'm sure whatever professional top laner can manage cleaner jax play as well
i mean stuff like vlad is much more annoying to deal with than tanks
tanks are what jax gets better and better at fighting the more hp and sustain he gets

Ya because I see little way for a jax can trade with those 3 champions who are being played in pro play right now. Even if with this nerf Maokai and Ekko will still be t1 top laners.
|
stuff like pantheon, vlad and ryze are shit you don't want to play against those champions are about average
anyway i'll see what enemies pick in sorro que tomorrow
jax has issues with kiting and harass he doesn't have issues with trading
ekko could kind of do it but he got nerfed again. all 3 rely on autos once their burst is down and jax has a dodge for that.
|
Teut, please give us more vids :3
I've wanted to be good at jax for a long time, but I always just suck dick at him.
Usually end up going somewhat even/slightly ahead in lane phase and then I either splitpush and be useless or teamfight and be useless.
|
I was about to say, Jax is a "run at them and bop em on the head" champion and that's right up Teut's alley.

Lucian nerf is a placebo and doesn't do anything.
