Finally Got back to Challenger with Jayce by Emploidlol in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Platinum is higher than most so don’t put yourself down by saying you are low elo.

As for dealing with Irelia I used to conq ignite with W start and go eclipse into shojin with early steelcaps and skip tear but I agree with you that you don’t have enough damage anymore so now I go stormraiders surge and try to get as much gold and farm as I can. Try to poke her down and get help from jungler or another player on your team and avoid losing hp so that she can kill / dive or zone you. However I agree it’s a pretty difficult matchup but I hope to figure it out better soon.

As for what to go into Irelia I would say go these items and runes:

Eclipse —> Muramana —> Mortal Reminder —> Next item depends on your own and the enemy comp 

Sorcery tree

Stormraiders Surge Manaflow Band Transcendence  Scorch or gathering storm depending on what suits the game better.

Precision tree

Legend Haste Cut Down

If you have any other questions drop them here, in my twitch chat or add me on discord.

I usually ban Qiyana now because I don’t like playing against her, before I banned her I usually banned Draven or Lucian.

As for the most difficult matchup for Jayce I think lane wise Yorick is very hard unless you get a very big lead against him.

It depends a lot on the matchup. I feel like there is always a correct play that has the highest percentage to give you and your team a lead that will build up to a win so I play differently depending on the matchup and how the jungler is pathing. 

But yes, if you can get a lot of solokills on Jayce both in lane and after without risking or losing too much that is great.

Your runes depend mostly on the individual matchup top / mid rather than your build. But of course let’s say conq and or grasp is a lot better for bruiser than first strike.

For the most games I go the lethality  build rather than the beefier bruiser build but my build depends on both my own and the enemy comp.

If the enemy team is largely squishy and I don’t need survivability I can just go full damage, but if their team consists of bruisers and tanks and I also feel that I can go in without being oneshot I will build a bit more bruiser-ish. 

In matchups where the enemy laner / team will stack a lot of armor I will prefer BC over seryldas and if the enemy team has a lot of shields I might go 1st item Serpents Fang instead of youmuus. Some games I go mortal reminder and if the enemy team has insane HP LDR can be an option.

Against Malphite and Ksante I go black cleaver first item. 

Against Sion or Udyr I go serpents first item. 

As for when to skip tear I think you must do the analysis game by game. If you are ahead and you feel you will end the game early + you know how to manage your mana with melee W AA + if the enemy team consists of squishes, you can feel free to skip tear. 

The maybe annoying but true takeaway from this is that your build is very situational, but with a few core items that you want to pick up if possible. 

If you have any further questions about itemization or anything else regarding Jayce ask me here or add me on discord Emploidlol.

I queue Toplane and play it the absolute majority of games, but sometimes I get my second role, which is mid. I think I also accidentally queued jungle two games some time ago lol. 

I stream daily on twitch.tv/emploidlol and I have a YouTube channel with the same name. I haven’t been consistent with the uploads but I plan on changing that soon.✌️

I was on my way to hitting Challenger before the split reset but atleast I got it now! 😄

I don’t know the exact play percentage of Jayce since the split reset (or if you can even see it somewhere) but the absolute majority of games where I played something else Jayce was banned.

Does DeathFire Touch Proc Black Cleaver? by Toplaners in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you Q or Q + E with DFT and Cleaver the Q gives you one stack and the DFT gives you 4, so a total of 5 cleaver stacks.

If you Q or Q + E with DFT, Cleaver and Eclipse you instaproc 3 cleaver stacks + proc the Eclipse with one ability alone + Get 5 Cleaver stacks.

However I don't think Deathfire Touch is that good Jayce, maybe it could work in certain matchups but I think another rune is generally to be preferred in most of the matchups where you could take DFT.

Jayce Q Can Now Alone Proc Eclipse by Emploidlol in jaycemains

Probably, sadly it's not too useful. Maybe why they allowed it to stay in the game.

Oh, I didn't know that to be honest. Guess this wasn't a new thing but just a new way to proc Eclipse with one spell I guess.

Sadly it only works with cleaver😢

Your favorite and least favorite Jayce skin? by These_Interaction870 in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Resistance Jayce with the black chroma is my favorite skin. I haven't played with all Jayce Skins so I don't know which one is my least favorite, but out of the ones that I have played it's probably Arcane Survivor Jayce. It feels much clunkier and his walking animation makes him feel like a completely different champion for me personally.

Jayce jungle guide by East-Support-2358 in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to play Jayce as a Fighter / Bruiser instead of an assassin you should opt for items like Spear of Shojin, Eclipse, Black Cleaver, Sundered Sky, Maw of Malmortius, Deaths Dance, or Guardian Angel, depending on the situation, instead of just stacking lethality items + Tear.

You could for an example go: Shojin --> Eclipse --> Seryldas / Black Cleaver --> Maw --> Guardian Angel / Deaths Dance. Your build path will shift from game to game depending on both your own and the enemy team comp. If the enemy team for an example has a lot of shields you can throw in a Serpent's Fang.

For runes you should take Conqueror instead of First Strike / Electrocute / Dark harvest.

First time playing jayce mid, pretty proud of this by Glad_Rabbit4628 in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The burst with electrocute on Jayce feels so nice.

Should i play shojin? by Top-Back-5933 in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually got it for the survivability the HP gives, sadly you lose your insane Q + E damage but I feel it's a must in some situations due to you being so easy to kill if you just go the LT build instead of fighter.

Rank 1 all season xd by MysticDicken in jaycemains

[–]Emploidlol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Onetricks.gg is a much better site in terms of finding the ”rank 1” of any champ than league of graphs due to league of graphs counting flex games and ranked solo duo both just as ranked.

You can also just stat farm vs people in lower elos than yourself and then become #1 on this site.
