I'm sorry but I have to disagree with "You will have no offensive capabilities" By the end of the game,around 4k - 5k hp depending on items means almost a 100 AD increase, plus the health from Warmog's working into the passive gives nearly an additional 150 additional Ad, brining you to nearly 250, making you tanky and highly damaging. Yes, I am aware that I will have little damage between warmogs and atma's, but the eextra health allows me to last much longer between both teamfights and laning, and the health regen allows me to get back health in lane, i don't disagree with you, i just think that what you said is fairly redundant to how the game can actually go, just try this build out once or twice, have a good game, you'll see how effective it is.

Thanks for the input, most of these are my personal preference, i don't like building AP on Jax simply because it isn't what I like to do, maybe it would make me better if I did, but I just don't build it. Using this build, i've overpowered alot of other Jax players simply because of the build order, they build AD early and AP late while I am building health, armor early to deal with that AD while building into MR later to deal with their AP. I may add a rageblade and a gunblade into situationals, but I think of those items as Ranged AD items simply because the slow on gunblade is fairly ineffective if you get it in the laning phase, simply because if you are a Melee champion, they will stay nearer to their turret so you will get hit if you attack them, while if you have gunblade on a ranged champion, you can slow them from a range and close in to do damage while staying away from their turret. Also if I build a gunblade, it keeps me from getting an item such as Frozen mallet or Trinity force, becuase of the high cost of the item. But the input is greatly appreciated, at least you didn't just DV and troll me =P

I think this will not work. I write here why I think this.

1) I miss some lifesteal or spell wamp. Where is Hextech Gunblade? IMHO must have item on Jax?

2) Where is mad stacking Guinsoo's Rageblade? If you want great damage output (physical), you need damage and attack speed.

3) If I follow for example my build, than in time when you finish Warmog's Armor I will have almost my Hextech Gunblade ready and if we met 1 vs 1, you will lose, cause of your lack of damage. On the other hand I think Warmog's Armor and Atma's Impaler combo is pretty good on Jax, even that I suggest to build it as last two items.

4) "Leap Stirke -> Empower -> Hit will do around 200-300 damage depending on their armor" Leap Strike and Empower both deal magic damage, so what armor the enemy has, doesnt really matter. Actualy if you play Hybrid, in late phase of the game, this combo deals 800-1000 damage...every 3,9 seconds.

5) Runes: I think the Greater Seal of Evasion are must have choice. Others are personal choices. I recommend: Quintessences should be for AP, red marks for AD or ArmP/MPen and blue glyphs for AP, CDR.

6) Getting boots ASAP after first item (Dorans) is very important. You need dodge. No dodge = no stun = no Jax.

7) Masteries - OK, I agree.

8) Summoner spells - Exhaust + Flash - OK, eventualy Ignite + Flash.

I will not vote so far, in case you may want to improve your guide in the future.

Im sorry, but no.

This build lacks damage.

You literally have no damage until atmas, and even after ur atmas, u have **** loads of health, but no offensive capabilities. This just doesnt work. Dorans shield? its okay, but rushing a warmogs immediately will make you useless to your team, with lots of health but no contribution to fights whatsoever.

Until you can fix your items, im afraid i will have to dv this.
