Every single game (8/8) i've faced champs with critical missile + firecracker augment and or magic missile. Its not random if its so easy to get it and it completely warps the game.

It has come to a point where every single ranged champ can take critical missile / magic missile + Fan the hammer and instantly delete people. Malza did 3/4 of my health bar with a single E. A twitch melted me as a 8k tank in under 3 seconds.

Its ridiculous.

So I’ve played quite a lot of Jayce as well as against Jayce and most people just play him as an E Q bot, but he’s one of the most enjoyable and rewarding champs in my opinion so here are some tips.

Gold Augment: Slow & Steady. beaten to death.

Vulnerability: Buy Hydra and Botrk and do the following combo: W (ranged) > R (melee) > Q > A A A > Hydra proc > A > E. Your hydra proc does 145% increased damage (+IE amplify) and Botrk does 14% current HP x 3 so you insta kill pretty much anyone. Flawlessly executed its 1.5-2 sec.

Ethereal Weapon: Your W in melee form procs Heartsteel so it’s an excellent way to stack it.

Silver Augment: Purist caster. Gives you 250+ AH = two or three Qs per E. it also reduces W to 2 sec so you pretty much get an infinite loop before you go oom. Double mana items are recommended.

Prismatic: Jeweled Gauntlet. See slow & Steady.

Prismatic: Triggered Inferno. Super sleeper op in my opinion. Jace can really easy proc TI with following combo (Ranged form): E > Q > W (hold) > R ( to melee) >Q > A A A > E. you proc TI before the combo is over and I’ve often gotten triple or quadra kills before lvl 6.

Build: You can build pretty much what you want but I’ve found most success with Tear (don’t upgrade) > Hubris > Executioner > LDR > Hydra > BT > (sell tear) Shieldbow.

Alternative is bruiser build with Heartsteel, Bloodlords, Eternal Hunger, Whatever you like.

You don’t need boots. ever.

Anvils: If you roll prismatic Omnivamp make sure you are in melee form when you select it, since you get 20% in melee and 10% in ranged. If you’re dead, wait until respawn, minimize and press R then select it. You will still have 20% when you transform back to ranged.

Summoner spells: Always flash + snowball

Combos. An extremely satisfying combo is to kill some low hp enemy with a 600g bounty that’s hugging the turret. Hit a target with snowball, max range. Transform to melee then teleport. > Q an adjacent enemy > FLASH to the intended target > A > E. You can reach enemies over a screen away if done right. Make sure to all caps “lol ty (the one who got hit by the snowball)” for maximum tilt. It’s pretty much a guaranteed one way trip but it’s very fun.

Anvils: In general you should only pick defensive stats as much as possible to make sure you survive long enough to pull a full combo. Many people ma not be aware that Jayce’s melee R passive gives him extra Armor/MR based on his AD, so I usually pick (if equal value): Health > AD > Lethality > armor/mr > AP > Magic pen

Prismatic anvils: Omnivamp > Tenacity > +15% size (if bruiser) / -10% Size (if normal) > Armor pen.

Good luck!

Pls delete this abomination.

I hope you understand what I mean but if you watch early live versions of For Whom The Bell Tolls those versions are completely insane. From Cliff’s extended bass intro to Newstead’s wah pedal intro (Seattle 89 is my absolute favourite).

But since Rob they just use the vanilla intro from the album + crab walk.

What gives?
