I still don't like Jax's snowball power curve even if he was allowed to fulfil it last game only because he was last pick. Being able to 1v5 lategame doesn't create gameplay or teamplay; it discourages it. I think his lategame should be flattened a bit to allowed for more exciting lategames and to force Jax to not play recklessly.

Edit: Daniel said it great when he said that Riot doesn't want DotA-style power curves where a carry can 1v5 and pretty much make every other type of hero feel irrelevant. Jax is one of those outlying champs, that despite its possible counters, goes against Riot's philosophy of making the game winnable at all stages of the game.

I do agree with you that jaxs late game is maybe a bit strong. But remember they did "kill" jax that last fight it was only zileans ulty that let him rez.

Yeah, I'm not saying it's not possible to kill Jax. I'm saying that Jax being so strong lategame forces teams to shut him down immediately at the beginning of a teamfight, effectively dumping all their summoner/major CDs on him, and making them must weaker for the rest of the fight. With ranged carries, it's not so bad because they are squishy despite their obvious offense power, while other tanky dps don't come close to the damage output that Jax has.

Jax being so strong lategame forces opposing teams (with equal farm) into a very compromising and disadvantaged position. No other champ comes close to dictating how the opposing team has to respond as a fed Jax.

Offensively? No. Defensively, there are plenty of other champs that do this. Singed will fuck you up if he is fed enough to ignore your damage. He wont kill you, but he will ensure that all of your carries are dead. Jax is just unique in that he disrupts offensively.

That's my point, Jax can almost ignore your damage while hitting like Kog'Maw with aoe stun. His threat level is so high but his survivability (tankiness+cc+mobility) is just as significant.

He runs him in solo queue a lot. I dunno about tournament play. But SV likes Warwick, he plays him a lot on stream.

CLG dont need tank this game. They just trying to burst down the enemy fast. CLG wins if teamfights are fast, they lose if they are long. You only need tank if you want teamfights to be long.

Dunno how much I like the picks from CLG. Singed could be really disruptive and just screw them over.

Which is why you want to end game fast if Jax is not on your side. Everyone saw how fast he took down the inhib solo. You got a carry who definately 1v1s anyone on your team, pushes like a madman and is a total terror in team fights (especially combined with zil ult).

Yeah, I understand that there are team comps that shine late and others that shine early. I just don't think any champ carries that hard at any point in the game as a fed Jax. I'm not saying he's unbeatable, but I do think his power curve is too steep as compared to other champs. Being the hardest carry is fine, but being the hardest carry by such a high degree seems problematic to me. His damage, sustain, cc, mobility and tankiness lategame seems too strong in a game where most champs can only specialise in 1-2 categories.


He's similar to Nasus in top, you CANNOT let him free farm. Many champions shut down Jax early; it's WE's fault for last picking Fid and putting GP against him top when they could have last picked an AP top and let GP jungle.

EDIT: Kind of like how CLG just last picked Kennen to counter Singed.

I guess you have the leeway to pronounce it whatever you like, since it's normal to mangle chinese names, but the Zhou in Guangzhou is actually pronounced closest to 'joe'.

The CLG picks seem more tailored for good laning. Perhaps they're just planning to outlane them like in solo queue and get their farm on.

I don't like clgs, too much ap, no real tank. If warwick doesn't go AD caitlyn will be the only AD meaning that if WE is willing to get merucry treads and 1 negatron cloak CLGs aps are gonna become mostly useless.

Im curious how this will play out. Interesting point though.
Though we strike at you from the shadows, do not think that we lack the courage to stand in the light.
