Who Wins
- You lose early levels 1-3 due to Jayce's superior range and burst with Q-E combo in ranged form.
- At level 6, you gain significant kill pressure with R if you can land it, but Jayce still maintains range advantage and can disengage with hammer form E.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves landing Q poison first, then following with E spam while the poison is active for maximum damage.
- Wait for Jayce to use his ranged Q-E combo, then look for windows when he's in hammer form or has abilities on cooldown to engage with Q-E-E trades.
Wave Control
- You want to push early waves to get level advantages since you scale better, but be careful of Jayce's superior waveclear with ranged Q-E.
- Focus on last-hitting safely and using Q on minions to simultaneously poke Jayce when he steps up for CS.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never try to trade when Jayce has his full ranged combo available, as his Q-E burst outdamages your early game potential.
- Avoid getting caught in extended trades in hammer form where his W attack speed boost and melee damage can overwhelm you before your poison damage accumulates.
