got rolled pretty hard by a vlad last week. I killed him pretty effortlessly early but he could survive after getting a revolver and once he got some levels and a wota (pre-nerf wota) he just ate me alive.

How does he do vs teemo? I've recently played against one but he was pretty bad, rushed wit's with only def. being 1 doran blade so i won the lane really hard but i wonder how does jarman lane vs decent teemos

Also how about vs nidalee?

uhh, teemo's beatable, but you have to play the early levels correct. he can't be way ahead of you on his wriggles or you're fucked. don't build wit's btw, it's wriggle's -> brutalizer to beat him, it's all about casting spells on him and having those burst like a motherfucker while you're blinded.

nidalee is unwinnable if she doesn't let you kill/hard-zone her pre-wriggle's. if you can manage to kill her though, you can stay ahead and beat her.

I played Jarman for the first time ever since he's free. Dunked on an Ashe in bot and managed to go very positive in score. Very fun champ, imoimo.

I tried him top and in the jungle, using Smash's build. Got a bit slow, but that's because I fell behind so I didn't have Wriggles by the time EQ wouldn't drop the creeps. I've had problems landing the combo to initiate ganks, too. If I can't do it from the brush I'll have to lead them while accounting for the delay of Q too, I'm used to skillshots (no problem ganking with Olaf) but I'm not used to that yet.
I really felt I was useless tho. Granted, I didn't manage to gank a lot while our mid and theirs (they had Talon) got 4-5 kills off each other, so I couldn't tank that much, and I did almost no damage. Btw, doesn't it show the Flash particle even if the champ's stealthed? I ult'd Talon once, he ulted right after to I figured I'd keep my barrier up to wait out his stealth, turns out he got out without using his jump nor any visible Flash particle, so I felt puzzled.

In lane... I didn't get to do that much either, but when you're laning against Galio and you get camped, then suddenly a fed Talon with 5 kills comes to attack you from bot without a warning, you feel kinda dumb with your MR.
I don't know, I don't feel like I contribute much, and after using E, Q and possibly my ultimate I don't feel like there's much I can do. But that's perhaps I'm always camped/ganked or I fail my own ganks when I jungle him, I don't have the items to fulfill his role correctly.

With equal farm, jarvan can't carry a team. What he does do, have very long range initiation, and soft cc with his ult which lets your team pump damage into anything trapped in it. EQ flash ult travels almost 1900 range, and with his ult being 3.5 seconds (galio and amumu ults were nerfed down to 2 second duration for a reason) what you get is a long time of teabagging someone who either is forced to use flash or have an epic battle. They also finally fixed his ult not too long ago so it doesn't disappear the second he dies.

I find dunking onto the AP is the most common, lots of AD's have an escape, with a few exceptions (mf ashe), while the gross majority of AP's don't. Jarvans kit is designed to either phases or initiate. His phasing is actually the opposite of how most phasing works. Normally you stand in front, and anything behind you is the phased off area, because to get through you they have to take damage, or cc etc. Jarvan's ult phases off everything outside of it, which is always a fixed area, instead of depending on where jarvan is.

Yeah, I thought about ulting their assassin/bruiser so that he doesn't get to dive my carry (or keep the ult until the clean-up phase to drop someone without having to chase) but I generally wasn't tanky enough (to make me their main target, or even to survive until the clean-up phase) and those had usually escapes anyway (Akali's R, Talon's jump) so I ult'd maybe 3-4 times a game. I'd rather not do it than do a bad one.

So what do think about getting a Frozen Mallet over the Tri-force? It complements my Atma's better and I feel a lot more useful a stopping those pesky carries from getting away.

What is the problem with J4 top? Too many bad matchups?
He is one of my favorite champs to play but I hate jungling so I would love to make him work top. At my elo it probably doesn't matter, but I am curious anyway.

yea, at higher elo you just get bodied in so many of the standard matchups in top lane. I dunno, I've tried a lot of shit to make it work and it still seems like it mostly just works if you get a jungle who knows how to camp or you're vs. an inferior opponent.

Added a few VODs of Jungle J4. Should probably update the guide to include Frozen Mallet in the OP too.

Bump for new item discussion.

I recall Smash used to favor a mid-tier item build for Jarvan where he would build strong mid tier items. Aka wriggles/phage/aegis/hexdrinker/boots/Atmas/Brut/hog(? Not that sure on this one) in no particular order. Phage can be upgraded to either triforce or mallet depending on the situation and brut can be upgraded to ghostblade but hexdrinker has no build path. With the new patch hexdrinker can now be build into MoM which is a decent late game tanky dps item. I wonder if the new item would be a stable on a more dps Jarvan builds if the patch hits. Of course it has to be compared against brut into ghostblade or would they have their uses depending on the situation?

I'm not yet familiar with the new item, so I can't really comment except that I rarely build hexdrinker out of the jungle and think that jungling is J4's only really viable place on a team at the moment, and as such, I doubt it will be useful on him.
