Jayce Matchups Overview

Jayce General information

Jayce tips and tricks

Focus on poking the enemy down with your Q before committing to a fight. Jayce is more of a poke champion rather than a 1v1 dueler.

Aim your Q so it hits the enemy and the minion wave at the same time to push them under their tower.

Jayce is a mana hungry champion. Avoid using all of your mana in the early game trying to poke. Save enough mana for your E so you can disengage if the enemy tries to fight.
