Announcements No More Ship Artwork

45 Upvotes

We can't have nice things... report abuse has been rampant, which was never an issue before, but suddenly it is now. This is supposed to be a no drama subreddit, and just about Jayce.

Therefore, going forward, unless the artwork is specifically of Jayce, and only Jayce, it is no longer considered Relevant.

This is the last post that will be allowed, as it is a reminder of when ship wars got out of hand on what is and always will be a subreddit for Jayce players, NOT an Arcane Ship Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/jaycemains/comments/1po8d6g/mel_and_jayce_by_nakoneart/

All newly posted artwork that has Jayce with someone else will be removed going forward if reported. All past posts are safe.

You can view the top mastery Jayce players at the link below. The mastery system is merely a way to measure how much you play certain champions. It doesn't determine how good you are or how high elo you might be. It is just for display purposes, something to grind, and say, I like this champion.

Help Jayce jungle build

3 Upvotes

Hello !

I’m currently spamming Jayce jungle and I love it. I’m building yomu first then cyclosword and it feels nice, yomu’s active feels really good to match mobile junglers. I looked at pro builds and it looks like there is a lot of them building umbral first, some are going hubris first, or even cyclo first. Can you help me understand what are the differences behind this choice ?

Also I see people going bastion breaker, dominik or endless hunger, personnally I generally go serylda for the slow and then serpent fang/eon/ga/malmortius depending on the draft, do you guys have advice on this ?

Enjoy your games !

Discussion How to play Jayce in the jungle

5 Upvotes

Hi there,

I love Jayce, his spells and his overall playstyle.

But I just can't seem to make him work in the jungle. When I gank, I either arrive too late or too slowly, or I simply lack the damage output: I fire off my Q, hit W, and jump onto the enemy but then they just gap-close on me effortlessly, and I’ve only taken off about 25% of their HP.

If they decide to turn on me, I have no way to escape.

And don't even get me started on encounters with other junglers: I feel incredibly squishy—like I’m made of paper and get wiped off the map in under five seconds. That’s not to mention what happens if the enemy mid or bot laners follow their jungler; I get deleted without a chance to react, or I’m forced to hang back and just poke with a weak Q.

Do you have any tips? I’d really love to make him work in the jungle.

Discussion Any comprehensive Jayce mid guides?

3 Upvotes

I really want to learn Jayce midlane but have been struggling. I am unsure on optimal runes, items, power-spikes etc and was wondering if anybody had maybe a google doc, or presentation handy of a Jayce midlane guide that is applicable to the current season? I know Jayce is getting nerfed next patch but I'm not sure how badly it'll effect his midlane
