How to play this build
Leap (Q) onto the enemy and activate Empower (W) for a Lich Bane–boosted hit. When focused, pop Counter Strike (E) to dodge autos and stun them; Guinsoo + Nashor give sustained hybrid DPS.
Skill order

- Why this order
- Empower (W) for AP damage with Lich Bane; Counter Strike (E) second for the stun. Q at 1 point (mobility only). A normal Jax maxes Q.
Items and what they do
-
Guinsoo's Rageblade Hybrid AD/AP that stacks attack speed and power the longer you fight. -
Lich Bane AP, mana and move speed; attack after a spell deals huge magic damage scaling with AP. Key for AP auto builds. -
Nashor's Tooth AP, CDR and attack speed, plus magic on-hit. For AP champs that auto-attack. -
Zhonya's Hourglass AP and armor; stasis active makes you invulnerable and untargetable for a couple seconds. -
Sorcerer's Shoes Boots with magic penetration.
Masteries: how they work
In Season 3 you have up to 30 points (at level 30) to split across three trees: Offense (damage), Defense (durability) and Utility (mana, cooldown reduction and mobility). The notation 21/0/9 means 21 points in Offense, 0 in Defense and 9 in Utility.
