Intro

Play...Wreck...Win. Not much to it but that's just all about this Jax build, it works extremely well, you can play AP Jax mid,or AD bruiser Jax top. AP Jax mid is a much more fun meta and with all the damage he is able to do in lane, including the large amount of sustain he recieves from spellvamp proves it is a difficult and yet still an awesome underrated meta, but that is just my opinion of AP Jax in mid lane.

Pros / Cons

AP Jax

Pros:
.Abilities add tons of damage
.Extra AP from items/runes scales with ult
.AoE stun from Counter Strike does a lot more damage than usual
.Great for dueling against other full AP mages or full AD bruisers
.Extremely high burst
.High mobility and lower CD on Leap Strike make it easier for Jax to capture/kill enemies or escape in low health situations
.Great for receiving a ton of sustain in duels and team fights
.Fun to play

Cons:
.Very difficult to lane with AP Jax
.No sustain early game
.Bad lane control both top and mid
.Very squishy
.Becomes effective after level 6.
.You need skills with the Jax, and just experience on playing Jax in general to make playing AP Jax easier in-game.
