" Jayce has no counters, because anything that will happen to him he can deal with in one way or another."

I never said that they "countered" Jayce, only that they are strong against him. All things equal, Jayce is bad against anyone who can stick to him. Gapclosers don't necessarily do anything more against him, but they help in overcoming his strong disengage. Champions with multiple gapclosers can engage, and even if they're knocked away, they can rengage. There's a reason Jayce wants to run - because he's garbage in an all-in brawl. Sure, I can see a Riven getting kited hard by Jayce and the lane coming down to a farm fest. Maybe this was a poor example. However, every other champion with strong engage will dump on Jayce because he simply can't handle the pressure. His base stats are awful, which is largely because he has such a huge amount of flexibility in his kit. Sure, you may have plenty of tools for the trade, but you're not invincible. Players can watch for key cooldowns to go - his gate and transform being key ones - and immediatly engage on Jayce, and take a dump on him. Again, all things equal.

Jayce is by no means a bad pick or "hard-countered" by strong engage toplanes - these champions are simply able to exploit his windows of weakness the most, and therefore excel at laning against him. So your condescending statement that my "solution is completely wrong" may have a few holes.
