Relentless Assault (PASSIVE)
Jax Passive Ability
Introduction
Basic Rune set up for Jax as far as I'm concerned. I sometimes go with all
Greater Mark of Attack Speed instead of Greater Mark of Desolation Not sure which i like better yet.
Greater Seal of Evasion are pretty standard for any jax. Dodge is important.
Greater Glyph of Attack Speed are the best i could find for jax, maybe
Greater Glyph of Magic Resist would be better, but i dont have those runes yet :) For Quints i use
Greater Quintessence of Attack Speed but i like Greater Quintessence of Desolation also. Maybe even
Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed movement speed is important, but don't know if i would change it for either of the other 2 quints.






Again, Basic 21/0/9 setup.
Good Hands
Rocks!!! I use
Ghost, so.....
Haste
I like more damage more than more defense, and going 9 points into Defense isn't worth it to me, just for 2% dodge (you should easily be over 30% without it) and the movement speed after you dodge is nice, but not really needed. If you are getting focused the small amount of Armor or Magic Resist isn't going to make enough of a difference to take them.



I take
Ghost and
Ignite
Ghost because movement around the map is more important to me than
Flash. Flash is good for escaping and chasing, but it's a one time use, and if you miss it's wasted. Like i said, I'm not a Pro, and
Ghost is like flash for dummies!
I have been using
Garrison a lot more lately, i like it better than
Ignite, as it takes one more escape away from the enemy, tower hugging is no longer a way to avoid jax destroying you!!! Also alot of solo queue you dont ever get anyone who will defend. it gives you the option to try to defend once in a while, just hit
Garrison stun and laugh :)

Let me explain, no there is too much, let me sum up.
I start with Basic
Boots and
Pickaxe.
First time i go back I get
Ninja Tabi and complete my
Guinsoo's Rageblade, hopefully.
Next time i go back i try to get as many parts of the
Hextech Gunblade as i can, usually taking
Hextech Revolver first and
Bilgewater Cutlass if i have enough. Of course if I have enough gold I just complete the whole thing. (Edit: with the hit to gunblade i still like the item, but i get it last, instead of early)
Sanguine Blade- I love the synergy with Jax having so many auto attacks, it works nice.
Atma's Impaler- More Synergy, More AD and HP. Great Jax item.
Warmog's Armor- Really? Noob!!!! Warmog's in Dominion??!?!?! Some people think that just because you dont farm minions its a waste of an item slot. But, you get stacks with Kills and Assists also, not just farming minions. i regularly get 30+ takedowns with Jax in dominions, and you only need 10 to cap the bonus from
Warmog's Armor. and more HP just makes
Atma's Impaler Stronger, And gives ALOT of HP. Most games don't last this long anyway, but if they do it's because there is too much fighting and not enough capping, if this is the case, you will stack it just fine. try fighting 1v1 against a Jax with nearly 5k hp, see who wins.
SITUATIONAL ITEMS
As I stated earlier, I play mostly solo queue, which means good luck getting good teams every time. In some cases, you have to do everything yourself. When i need to deviate from my build i usually drop my
Warmog's Armor and
Atma's Impaler. (Edit: gunblade can be dropped now instead of Atma's i think)
If my team has no capturer, or if there is someone playing as a capturer but only trying to get kills (too often this is the case) i will substitute
Priscilla's Blessing and a
Phantom Dancer, and just do the back dooring myself, still having enough damage output to take down most players 1v1 in the middle if they try to intercept.
If the enemy is AP heavy and fed, like i said, solo queue, it happens....
i go with
Wit's End and
Lich Bane sometimes
Banshee's Veil
The Lightbringer is a good item for those pesky stealthers.
Ionic Spark is fun sometimes. It proc's often with Jax's Attack Speed, nice when Defending 1v2 or 1v3 under your tower.
Frozen Mallet I use sometimes instead of
Warmog's Armor The slow is nice, and the 700 HP goes well with Atma's Imapler
Kitae's Bloodrazor helps versus a tank heavy team, stacking HP
Trinity Force is Awesome!!! but it's expensive, i usually don't use it.
