Not a bad start. I suggest adding a little flare when you get the chance. I like the line dividers, but any images or videos (headers) can really make a guide look well!

Also, you might want to start a match-ups section. It's like...the biggest ***** to make (to me atleast), but it will really give you some points if you have one.

Here's an (Up-Vote =3) for a boost. Keep responding to the critics!



If you felt I contributed and stuff, can I have a (+1 Rep =3)?

Hey Monkey, sorry it's taken me so long to reply, I have been quite busy. Anyways, thanks for the upvote!

I want to get some line dividers, but for some reason I'm hesitant to do that, I will have to soon.

Also, as far as the match-ups section goes, it's a great idea, but I think I should add it once my guide starts taking off and after I have added to it more. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for the feedback! Maybe I should ask you for those custom line dividers.. :)

There's a few things that are keeping me from upvoting this, but first the positive!

1. I love the fact that you're going more of a hybrid build on Jax. Most of the builds on here usually focus on the AD aspect.


As for the negative...

1. You have a ton of health on this build, but to cap it all off you don't include an Atma's Impaler?

2. You've got some good ability power, but you don't opt for a Lich Bane. I wouldn't say you have to build it on your guide, but you should definitely add it in the situational items section. It's a tad empty.

3. You have " Jax" coded a ton of times in the first few sentences of the guide. Once or twice would suffice. :p

4. In masteries you take Vampirism . Which would be useful for sustain in the lane, but 3% isn't going to do very much at all. You put off your Hextech Gunblade for a long time too, which is a great item on him, and the mastery perk works great with it's lifesteal. And the defense tree you have Veteran's Scars selected, but you didn't take the prerequisite Durability points. XD

Other then those minor issues, it looks great. I'll give you an upvote once you reply and/or make changes. Good job :)

First, thank you for the wonderful feedback, you deserve a +Rep :)

Nextly, I just want to say that I will get to your suggestions as soon as I possibly can, as I can't make any major adjustments right now, I will try to get them done as soon as I can, as they are great. Once again, thanks, and look forward to these changes soon, I want to see if you will upvote :)

Here's what I think:

In response to #1: I have had the Atma's Impaler in the situational items section of the build since the beginning, so I have it there, but I don't think it's required.

In response to #2: I have added the Lich Bane as a situational item! :)

In response to #3: Fixed, minimized bbcoding.

In response to #4: On the contrary, Vampirism gives the same amount of life-steal as the Doran's Blade, a awesome starting item, therefore, it gives great early-game coverage, so it is useful. Next, Hextech Gunblade is actually built fairly quickly providing that you are doing well. Lastly, not trying to be mean, but you are incorrect in saying that I don't have the right masteries to get Veteran's Scars . I do, in fact.

Otherwise, thanks for the great feedback! Now my guide is a bit better! :D
Looking forward to that vote! :3

guide needs editing

uh solotop, and start with boots, so of course 4 pots? build is fine, though i see guinsoo's as a situational item. shouldnt be getting Q at lvl 1, should be E. i also find that maxing dodge after empower is more beneficial. getting extra dmg early on doesnt help as much. and the cooldown is not decreased as much compared to counter strike, which is your main defensive ability considering jax has a weak early game. dont see the reason for your defensive mastery distribution (magic resist points). you cant even get veteran scars if you dont get durability. it's a requirement. later read your mastery explanation, but you explain you got durability. so mastery glitch? get that checked out. heal and tele are still viable. lifesteal doesnt always win trades. heal ignite gives you automatic lane dominance. tele gives you map control for dragon and other objectives. situational items needs some addition such as for defensive items, else this build only advises glasscannon type builds, which are shut down easily. consider moving the items sections before the gameplay roles section. could use a section on champion matchup. overall, i see some flaws in this guide, therefore an upvote wont be granted. PM me for a re-review after you make some changes. if you surprise me enough, a scout point may also be granted.

keep up the good work~
