Master at Arms: How to Jax

As I stated in my previous guide Udyr is a lot like Jax, right now the best thing to do is to play him hybrid. Their builds are basically the same, but I usually play Jax top lane. Jax is a really good duelist and can 1v5 the whole team once fed or even full built. You can also jungle as jax and go the exact same route as hybrid Udyr, but top Jax is different because you don't get devourer.

Jax has an okay kit, but once you learn to use him he's pretty strong. For example, his passive gives him bonus attack speed for consecutively attacking the same target. Jax's W gives his next attack bonus magic damage, which is great for using in combat to give you that extra edge. His Q is great for going all in during a fight or trying to get away because you leap to an enemy or ally. When W is active it also gives Jax's next abilities buffs, such as his Q. Jax's E is a dodge from auto attacks and an aoe stun when the dodge finishes. Jax's utimate, R is pretty good because it gives his every third attack bonus magic damage and more armor and MR. The basic combo to use as Jax is E into a Q to jump on your enemy then stun them and then beat them with your W and ult. You can usually win trades like that and even get kills, just watch out for 2v1 because you have no escape and might die if there is a lot of cc.

The first item I get on Jax is Guinsoo's Rageblade because it gives you the AP, AD and attack speed you need. Then like the Udyr build get Hextech Gunblade, and then you can get other items like Black Cleaver and Trinity force. You could also get BORK, or even go a little tanky by getting items such as spirit visage or thornmail. That's basically all you have to do to play Jax, just stay safe in lane and try not to go all in until you think you can beat your opponent.
