Playing as Jax
Tips to maximize your impact
- Start trades with Counter Strike
Start your trades with Counter Strike (E): you dodge autos and take less area damage, and each dodged auto adds damage to the stunning counterattack.
- Look for long trades
Look for long trades: each consecutive auto increases your attack speed thanks to Relentless Assault (passive).
- Ward hop to escape
To escape, place a ward and jump to it with Leap Strike (Q): it can target any unit or ward, allied or enemy.
- Activate your R up close
Activate Grandmaster-at-Arms (R) up close: it only grants armor and magic resist if it hits a champion, and your bonus hits then land every other auto.
Playing against Lillia
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Hug her or back off from her Q
Against Blooming Blows (Q), stick to her or back out of range: only the outer edge of the zone adds true damage.
- Leave the center of her W
Get out of the center of Watch Out! Eep! (W): the zone deals much more damage there than at the edge.
- Dodge her spells, seed included
Dodge her spells, even Swirlseed (E), which rolls to the first enemy: each one marks you for Lilting Lullaby (R), which puts every marked enemy to sleep.
- Save your CC for her
If you have CC, use it on her: with no dash, she relies on the move speed Blooming Blows (Q) gives her for each spell that hits.
