You really have to watch your ability usage as Jarvan, because you will want to spam your abilities when your autoattacks can do dmg now, and then abilities let you hit them again.

For instance, I know I will win my trade with Riven, even though we are both low on Hp pre6. When she gets near, I know she will be aggressive, so I let her charge into my minions, but before she stuns me, I lay down my flag. When she tries to retreat, I will combo with Q, catching her in minion aggro for at least 3sec, the last half while her armor is reduced. When she tries to walk past me I use my shield. Why then? It absorbs her minion aggro and keeps her next to me and possibly my minions as well. DO NOT OVERLAP CC!!! By the time you get your ult, you will have sheen not long after. It will be tempting to ult and combo them, but refrain. Whack them for 3sec, and if they have no way to escape, use W, otherwisewait for them to dash and then EQW just to spite them.

Mana wise, Jarvan needs to use his abilities sparingly. NEVER just randomly harass someone, make it intentional, like stopping a last hit.

Never noticed the chin, lol

Cataclysm is something you will learn to use or drop Jarvan. It is really just a great source of dmg because it serves the same purpose as, say, Nautilus ult minus the CC, but with way more single target dmg. Jarvan has plenty of CC in his regular abilities, so this is really a situational move, J4 does not NEED it, per se, but it has odd usage. Coolsown is not too painful either.
