You can easily poke him. Jax isn't very strong early and your Meditate lets you win any poke game vs him. Also, if you hit him with Alpha Strike, it deals a ****load of damage.

ad yi, let jax push tower so he will leave his lane so you can farm up and then keep backdoor pushing.

If you are letting Jax roam freely and gank your team / steal you jungle, nothing good is going to come of it.
You can't peddle papooses with a dancing monkey.

Jax is weak the first 2-3 levels, implying they aren't using flat AD quints and marks. Once he gets his full combo though he becomes a real threat. He's still easy to zone though until either level 6 or when he goes back and grabs Wriggle's Lantern or Bilgewater Cutlass. Once he has life steal you're kind of done with that lane :( AP would give you a better chance although I still would not recommend going head to head with him. And yeah, late game Jax is gonna shred you. At least you could back door? :3

Yes, really. I honestly don't think you can win, BUT, in order to have a chance, your build will need to be absolutely ******ed, something like 2-3 BT's, a PD, and a Randuin's Omen. Maybe an Infinity Edge.

Also when he counter strikes you should try to use Alpha Strike to avoid the stun.

Counter Strike will still stun him because Yi will have appeared again. And I would say..

So yeah. Ridiculous Attack damage, attack speed and lifesteal would counter Jax. But you'd be so squishy and vulnerable to CC.

That build means one jax combo = bye. Or one hit. Heck, one shot from Gunblade.

Yeah in a real scenario Yi won't beat Jax, but, in a 1v1 he can, with crit, AS and big deeps + lifesteal.

Yi's ulti would be the widow maker in that 1v1 fight.

... jax essentially makes yi useless for 3 seconds with counter strike, which is basically enough time for jax to kill yi.

build the same glass cannon build on jax as you suggest on yi and jax wins... build dfg and hat on jax and he wins... build jax normaly and he wins... this is no contest really

Thanks to Anal Samurai for the sig!
