Playing as Jayce

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Poke through your gate

    In cannon form, fire Shock Blast (Q) through Acceleration Gate (E) from the start of lane: the orb gains speed, range and damage, and it's your best poke.

  2. All-in with the hammer

    To all-in, switch to hammer: leap in with To the Skies! (Q), activate Lightning Field (W), then knock your target back with Thundering Blow (E).

  3. Auto after every swap

    Land an auto after each weapon swap: switching to Mercury Cannon (R) reduces your target's armor and magic resist, and your first hammer hit deals bonus magic damage.

  4. Swap weapons to escape

    To escape, swap weapons then walk through Acceleration Gate (E): Hextech Capacitor (passive) and the gate each give you move speed.

Playing against Aurora

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Trade after her W

    Take a trade once Across the Veil (W) is used: it's her spell to vanish, on a 22 to 18 second cooldown unless she takes part in a kill.

  2. Short trades

    Take short trades: every spell or auto that hits you releases a spirit that heals her, through Spirit Abjuration (passive).

  3. Don't fight in her zone

    Don't fight inside Between Worlds (R): she teleports from edge to edge, and crossing the edge slows you. Get out early, with a dash if you have one.
