the thing is, (i dont know why im saying this) finishing tf is kinda idk unnecessary. i usually leave it as sheen and then build a fm for the tankiness. your rageblade covers the as, the sheen is just sheen and the fm guarantees the phage proc and gives you a nice tankiness.


anyway that leaves my core as just rageblade/sheen/mallet. idk it seems weird but it worked.

That's terribly slot-inefficient and will bite you if the game goes on for much longer, especially since Sheen is a dead-end item if you have FMallet already and are noot looking to go into Lichbane.

I think it might depend a bit. I've been having success maxing Q for lanes like vs Kennen, and also for the chases when I jungle.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I tried IBG, I kind of like it- except that you don't get the slow until you complete the thing, which takes forever and an age. But once it is completed, it gives an insane amount of sticking power.

I think IBG/BotRK/Wit's End might be a good combo of items, with Warmogs as the followup. Maybe skip the BotRK for Warmogs. Kind of miss the movement speed from Triforce, but I suppose that can be partly counteracted by getting tier 3 boots sooner.

Usually W, Q if the lane calls for it (Kennen, Singed come to mind)

The Q cooldown reduction is huge for double tap -> Q enemy -> auto to trigger ult when you can't stick to your opponent to use W's low cd.

General rule of thumb is W vs melee and Q vs ranged.

I think I run something like 18/12/0 for jungling and 18/0/12 for laning, taking the armor and magic penetration masteries in the offensive tree.

I prefer 9-21-0 so I can play defensively in lane until level 6. Some people even run 29 or 30 in the defensive tree. In easy enough lanes I'll go for the double pen masteries.

Also, I have gone back to triforce first builds after the recent reduction in cost. Though I still love the Rageblade and get it as my second damage item, the build up to triforce is too smooth. Also, I like the early zeal with phage for chasing people down -- particularly when jungling.

I think Jax's jungle is pretty strong tbh. Biggest problem is the lategame fall off from not having solo lane level farm.

His clear is a bit slow pre-6, but he barely loses health at all. Ganks are pretty good with point-and-click gap closer, a stun and good dmg. As Smash mentioned, the main reason people don't jungle Jax is that he needs lots of gold to do his job properly. If you get behind as jungle Jax, you will do absolutely jack shit in team fights.

TL;DR: There are better junglers, and jax is better top.

If anything, the last jungle tweaks should make him faster, since he's a single-target jungler at heart that spams E on camps only when he has blue buff.
