League of Legends (LoL) Question: Jax early game

    Jax early game

    Is it normal that the enemy jungler just keeps on ganking 24/7 early game when I play as Jax to shut me down, or am I maybe just doing something (overextending etc). While we're onto it: any tips for jax early game? It is the point I seem to struggle as the enemy jungler won't give me peace

    Play as aggressive as you need to up to level 2, then around 3:00 you should play more conservatively against junglers with strong level 3 ganks. Don't push past the river without warding. If you're going to play aggressively in lane, buy a ward every back and put it in the river or tri bush (whichever's the more likely gank path). If you don't have a ward, don't push up unless you can easily evade ganks or you know where the enemy jungler is.

    It's mostly because you're Jax tbh. The champion is borderline borken and should be banned in 100% of the games by purple side. Pressuring him madly during the early-game, as jungler, is the only real way to keep him down although it's just delaying the inevitable.

    Generally speaking, just ward properly and watch your opponent's movement to predict ganks. Also, if you are capable of winning a 2v2, make sure your jungler (counter)ganks top at level 3.

    - If you are against a strong jungler and strong top who cannot win trades or harass very well but you are afraid of them (CC + damage) start with Doran's Shield otherwise Crystalline Flask seems to be better option because of its sustain
    - Always have a ward at the river and always carry a ward with you so you can jump to it with your Q
    - If you are overextending and want to be safe but you want farm go get it when your minion wave is on the way to it so you can jump to them if the situation seems dangerous for you
