How to play it

✓ DO

Bait his Counter Stance

His E stuns and lets him leap on you, so only trade after he's used it.

Trade after his E

Once Counter Stance is down you can trade with him — but make it fast.

Don't force CS

If he sits on your CS in Counter Stance and stun-leaps every time, just farm from range instead.

✕ DON'T

⛔

Never initiate the trade yourself — go in only after Jax has committed his jump and E.
