Introduction

The Basic Principles of Jax, The Grandmaster at Arms:

Jax is a very straightforward champion. He has only a few combinations, one of which being similar to Lee Sin. The most basic combo is E, Q onto the desired target, activate E, W, and auto thrice to active the ultimate passive. Jax's Q can also be used to jump onto wards, champions and minions, so you can "Ward Hop" as you can with Lee Sin. Through this, you can plan escapes carefully to ensure you take objectives and Hop to safety before you can get killed. As for counters, very few champions counter him in dueling, funnily enough Lee Sin being one of those lucky few. As for Jax himself, activating his Ultimate ability gives him the tankiness he misses out on because of the attack-speed he builds to be able to whittle anyone down. This ranges from a 19-armour Anivia to a 800-armour Malphite. In conclusion, he is a very versatile champion, and is easy, therefore the ideal choice to rank-up with.

Teamwork

You may be a semi-burst tank kinda guy, but remember to let the hard tanks take most of the damage, as that's their purpose. Look to kill of the carries, but that doesn't mean you can't kill their tanks as well either.
