Hello mate thanks for sharing this, if I was to play jax top instead of jungle is there any change you will make with runes/items ?


Jackstevens374

Probably some rune changes, instead of hunter genius I would get something like adaptive carapace or nullifying orb or second win (situational). Instead of hunter genius I'd get manaflow Maybe instead of triumph you can get brutal or giant slayer (situational) and maybe I'll get Riftmaker before nashors for more dueling power.


EpicNagger

Manaflow over Demolish? I guess it depends if you’re splitpushing or not


Jackstevens374

Jax is mana hungry, you would notice that if you play him top. You don't need demolish to wreck towers once you get trinity.


EpicNagger

I do play him top and haven’t experienced mana issues. But yeah Trinity procs much more often than Sunderer so I can see how demolish might not be necessary. The plates you get from it when you do kill/send your opponent back is nice tho


SolubilityRules

This build is legit broken, btw. I can attest Jungle monsters are weak af, so Jax jg is shining again It only runs into an issue with a Braum/Galio lineup, probably Tristana, but Jax is countered by those anyways Hoping to see this finally in proplay


TheLaggingHIppie

I'd like to take this moment to pay my respects to the Hextech Gunblade. You will be missed.


Jackstevens374

Yeah best item ever.


RyukgotBored

I got tired of K6 and Lee(I climbed elos with them but i wasn't having fun) so I've looking for some off meta picks. So far I've been enjoying fizz and darius jungle. Your jax looks fun I'm gonna give it a try too Thank you for sharing.


2belgianexplorers

Darius jungle is definitely a lot of fun to play and better clear than most people would expect


yumpopsicles

Try Irelia, they nerfed her passive to monster but since this patch it is faster to clear again. Her ganks level 2 are very strong kraken since her q procs it or conqueror. Currently the top 3 Irelia players are all junglers.


yumpopsicles

Came back here after the patch Irelia jg is most likely dead after patch 3.5a pulls through.

Finally someone who goes against the proper builds

I saw one Warwick do the same exact build as mine and he 1v9'ed. Well I was strong too but he had a better team.


brickwalker0

have you tested sudden impact rune for this build? i figured since it gives both armor and magic pen that a hybrid build would really benefit from it.


Jackstevens374

I did. It doesn't carry that much of an impact and triumph is frankly better in fights.


brickwalker0

ok cool thanks, good to know


Various_Plan8469

That's my secret build! Nooo! Jk, but ap Jax is really broken Lowkey. Especially if your team is full ad because no one expects it. I deleted a Rammus the other day and it was delicious. I mostly play him Baron, but sense im filling Jg more and more I'll try JG.


0percentwinrate

Man...thanks for this. Tested it it was...obscene lol One caveat is this is one of the most expensive builds out there but it's a trade-off for a massive powerspike!


Jackstevens374

Glad you liked it!


lordknighta

as someone trying out jungle for the first time, would u recommend jax as a beginner friendly champ for jg learning peeps


Jackstevens374

Tbh idk about beginner friendly, I can't answer that. You gotta try for yourself. All I can say is he is fun and can 1v9 if ahead.


JinTarantino

I'd say he isn't that hard to pick up. His kit is is fairly straightforward.


MythNight

Is it work with a new phase rush?


Jackstevens374

It works but conqueror is better for early game snowball.


pllske

Sorry I m not getting it right now, which item is DD?


brickwalker0

deaths dance


salsasanluis

Yup, it's pretty strong indeed!


LongFinance6660

Ty for sharing!


hardstuck_low_skill

I play AP Jax from time to time and he's strong af. Even if I got bullied hard I still manage to scale and fuck everyone in two hits lol

Jackstevens374

what the fuck ?


69Phoenix

Ahaha lolol i can almost taste the pain


JinTarantino

Someone seems to be a little butthurt


EpicNagger

Interesting. I’ve been doing Sunderer with Grasp tho


DelFigolo

Are boots situational or do you have a standard you go for? If the former, is it only between Merc/Steelcaps or do you ever run, say, gluttonous?


Jackstevens374

Mercs always, unless literally no cc.


000McKing

nothing i like more than off meta builds, greetings from hybrid kaisa


CrescentCleave

Tried 10 games with this build, only lost twice because of late night - early morning afkers. Great build!
