How it works

General

  1. You rush Nashor's Tooth.
  2. You then get Riftmaker and Guinsoo's Rageblade.
  3. You buy AP items and adapt to an enemy team.

How to play

General

  1. As Jax playing Riftmaker build, you will be squishy early on. You need a moment, levels and items to ramp up. Be careful when going in.

Champion

  1. As Jax playing Riftmaker, your skill order depends on a situation. In general, max Empower (W) for damage. Against ranged or for reach, max Leap Strike (Q). Against heavy melee or lots of auto attackers, max Counter Strike (E).
  2. You can use Hextech Rocketbelt either or engage (E + Hextech Rocketbelt + Q to go in), or to run away after your Q + E combo.

Tips and Tricks

Riot

  1. Jax can Leap Strike to friendly units, including wards. You can use them to plan your escape.
  2. Jax benefits greatly from items that have both Ability Power and Attack Damage such as Guinsoo's Rageblade and Hextech Gunblade.
