What they are going to do is....
Step 1. Nerf Jax into oblivion until nobody plays him ever again. (Almost done)
Step 2. Plan buffs but have them come Soontm (Done)
Step 3. Remove dodge from the game. (Working on it)
Step 4. ???? (Daily occurance at RIOT Games
Step 5. Make him viable through some convoluted means along with reworking all the other champs that have dodge! (Working on it!)
TL;DR, I have no idea what they're doing but I bet it will be good.

Theres been word of a "leak" going around about bringing in block. I don't really know what to think about it at the moment but if you do some digging you can find the link somewhere. I'm not aware of where it is at the moment. Nor do I believe the authenticity of the said link until I see it backed by riot. That's just me. But from the post the use of this "block" sounds very OP.
I've heard about the block thing as well, but I'm not really sure how that's different? Even if it's just a percentage damage reduction, it still sounds like it would be a random event, which is exactly why they're getting rid of dodge. So I dunno. This might be the link (or at least a related one), it certainly seems like it.
That's not the block page I saw but the information is exactly the same. I really don't think its any different just very OP. Seeing as every champion gets an automatic 10% block chance and you can cap it at 40%. Just seems entirely to much to me and it does sound like it is completely random. But this is why I said I don't believe the authenticity of this "leak". Not at the moment anyways.
How about Udyr? anyone forgetting him?
well changing Jax's Counter strike to a built in thornmail( of course different in some way) or even a built in Odyn's veil. both being something like, " can only be activated after receiving 3-5 auto attacks.

An effect like Veil might be cool. It'd be like Maokai's ult, but centralized on one champ. That'd be fun on Jax, makes him more fun to leap into the middle of a fight with. And I wasn't forgetting about Udyr, I was just talking about the ones I see more. (I just never see Udyr.)
Jax and sivir will be over buffed like Tryn, GP, Ryze, etc.
They always OP a champ and tone it down to please the fans of that champion, so no worries there.
Dodge being removed however is something that does concern me.
