Jax is incredibly underpowered at the moment and in serious need of a buff.

People will rage in the early levels, preferring to pretend there was nothing they could've done to beat a champion than admitting they did something wrong.

Lies. He is fine.

That second part is true. Most people just can't accept their mistakes.

He has a horrendous lane, his jungling ability isn't anything amazing, he has no passive bulk, every one of his abilities is centred around him as a champion (and his stun has absolutely no range and takes 1 second to charge) making him a bad tanky DPS.

If you're fool enough to try and duel him he's fine, but if not he's dead weight. I hate what Riot did with Jax.

Well, you could just avoid him. Don't play him and que dodge if somebody else picks him.

Taking what you said into account, he is not recommended. You can be smart and avoid fighting him or you can be stupid and let him faceroll you. That seems the only two options, since I can assure you he is going to attack you either way. He also has that jump for a reason, it puts him in range for that stun.

He's just exceptionally good at 1v1'ind and even 1v2'ing. He has the ability to surprise people with his survivability and damage, leaving a lot of people to engage with him when they shouldn't and then they say "omg op."

I have often felt like it's stupid how survivable he is for how much damage he does, but he's not "op", it just feels that way when you get owned by him. :P
Thanks to GrandMasterD for my sig!

His ability to stay with his target is quite a bit of what makes him "OP". Jump on a lowish+stun+insane damage(if decently farmed)+Rylais(If AP). Sorta like Irelia:P
Thanks to JEFFY40HANDS for the awesome sig:D

Jax is awesome if you go into a 1v1 or 1v2, but excluding that, he's just a trash

You can go tanky and initiate-insta-die fights (empowered jump+stun-HP=initiation because no one initiates fights, bunch of *****es)
