Tips Against Jax in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

Dragonlord1022 says “Fleet Footwork Bone Plating D Blade → Swifties → Tri Force - Fighting for prio early is very important in this lane. If Jax has shove you will lose trades, if you have shove you can look for poke. Play disciplined and you will most likely win. - Be mindful of Jax passive and Jax Q - Jax's Q cd is lower than your E - Level 1 you can win prio no matter what Jax has - Don't face check any of the bushes before wave - Walk with first wave - If Jax jumps on you, you'll win with Bone Plating and wave - Be ready to ward first bush if he jumps on you then tried to drop minion aggro in it quickly - After 6, be mindful of Jax R passive 3rd attack, he may try to initiate fights by jumping on you with it”

dracoiwnl says “try to hold your w for either when he uses his W+Q, or at the very end of his E (dont use it too early)”

Saneryus says “Contrary to believe, Jax isn't that bad of a match up from MY personal experience. Yes, his E is the only thing that counters you, but it's only for 2.5 seconds. You'll eventually outscale him and his E won't matter when you can just statcheck him. It's just the laning phase where most people have a problem dealing with him but if you can get through that, it's fine. This match up is all about survival and spacing/kiting to an extent. Level 1, you will lose since he will start E. Start Q to farm the 3 melees. If he zones you, just start E and E him. Afterwards, try and hold the wave on your side for as long as possible to soak 6. When wave is on his side, just soak until it slow pushes back. Try to space well so he can't Q + E onto you. If you can't, then preemptively Q before he Q + E onto you so you can kite him out after getting stunned. If the wave is on your side, he can never jump on to you since he'll take turret damage. That's where you can bully him. ONLY bully/trade when wave is on YOUR SIDE where you're safe under turret. Otherwise, wait and just soak until wave bounce back to you. - Standard PTA | Can take bone plating/unflinching if you think you'll be camped - Flash/TP or TP/Exhaust (i prefer TP/Exhaust if possible) - DBlade or DShield - Q Max Level 11, becomes skill match up with how well you space him. Level 16, you will statcheck him the majority of times and win. Just becareful of AP jax as he has a lot of burst with E. Standard AD jax you don't have to worry too much about burst. ”
PokeRoyal2007 says “I personally don´t find it that hard actually. Tricky because he can stack a lot of attack speed but you can win him anyways. Try to E at the same time he E’s you, so he doesn’t hit for free. If he’s good, then it will be a lot harder.”

ObiW says “His E (Counter Strike) blocks your W stun and auto-attacks. Golden Rule: NEVER start the fight with W. Walk up and poke with Q. If he activates his E, use your E (Aegis Assault) immediately to block his stun damage. Once his counter-strike is down, engage freely.”
Claude Rains says “Very very annoying rn. because the DMG types and his ability to just jump W in ur face all day. If he jumps you, go cougar and Q him if he E's W away. and go back to a few ranged auto's. Pretty doable but you can NOT let him allow to take cs w/o punishment early on! He will outscale you quick, movementspeed is mandatory else he hits the stun and can just smack you.”

Coach Woodon says “Dont do long trades into him when he has counterstrike. Keep wave on your side. ”

TENSION019 says “He comes to lane swinging a lamp, punish him for it. Take Grasp of the Undying and Ignite. If you buy Plated Steelcaps, the lane becomes much easier. If he’s a good Jax player, he’ll likely rush Blade of the Ruined King, and that’s when he becomes more of a threat. As long as you throw him under the tower, though, he shouldn’t be able to kill you. Keep in mind that he can leap out of your tower with his Q, so plan accordingly. Also, don’t auto-attack him while his E is active, or he’ll return even more damage to you.”
The River King by TENSION019 | Tahm Kench Player
zwartebliksem says “Flash + Teleport (ignite if confident) EDIT: As of season 16, this matchup moved down from Extreme to Major. Still requires good matchup knowledge to win. Extremely difficult matchup, he disables your entire kit. Jax wants to get a short trade with his W + Q jump, then either extend or disengage with E. He gains attack speed from his passive while attacking, so don't extend trades while this is up. You should be trading while is E is down, but make sure to hit Q or E to stick onto him, since he can easily dash out if you don't. Late game, you cannot win against him. His E cooldown will be so low that you cannot attack at all.”

Amothertruckingunicorn says “This is for top jax, your e is very consistent into him. I would say jungle jax is much harder so would be major if it was picked more often because of the movement speed. ”

heybeyoo says “Jax is countering rengar but you can outplay him and it works almost all the time. 1. Get 4 stacks before ulting. 2. Ult him and jump when he is close to bush you can reach. 3. While jumping use Empowered E and run to bush (Congratz he used his E and he is completely unarmed) 4. When you back to bush jump again and use empowered E again (He will be surprised and he wants to run away with ward + Q but you gonna block that) and thats how u win 1v1s with jax. ”

Hazardist says “[[jax]] outscales you and does better inside the [[realm of death]] than he would in an open fight. So unless you're clearly ahead, don't prioritize ulting him over his carries, especially if you're being outnumbered.”
MiniBlue says “Careful with his great duel gamestyle, take the advantage on team fights and hostigate Jax.”
hllbnt says “Use WW - E to counter Jax - E. Hold WW - R until you're mid/low health. Don't engage if behind or without item advantage.”

MiniBlue says “Cuidado con su capacidad de duelo, aprovecha las peleas de equipo contra Jax y no podrá hacer mucho.”
Paladin3200 says “you know what is the threat here... His dodge ability nullifies all your burst damage, and his explosive damage can easily take out Udyr and escape, but in team fights, if Jax uses up his abilities, Udyr can easily take out Jax before he becomes a threat in the team fight.”
Sir_PIzza says “Can go either way for this matchup, mostly just a skill vs skill fight, if you get a lead you win”

mehanika jon says “diana dislikes hard early pressure champs or statcheckers that scale with her, or straight up outscale her. she is a basic kit champ, so no big outplay potential in some comps. avoid cc comps.”

ludenbergangel says “Very viable ban. You need your team to rotate for obj or he will bully you out of them. Most you can do is E him away as he's charging up his E. Avoid landing R on him, you'll end up cancelling it with E anyway”
