Jayce is AMAZING and highly undervalued due to his somewhat high learning curve. He's in the same situation as Lee Sin's early days: very powerful but will be underused until pros start playing him more, then he'll get nerfed slightly.

Jayce is a very dominant top lane because of his great harass kit. Yes, acceleration gate + shock blast is an obvious and powerful poke, but he has so much more. You can do that AND pop hyper charge, swap to hammer stance and run through the gate (insane movement speed burst from that combo), jump on the opponent with Q, get in a couple swings (extra AS from hyper charge and extra magic damage on the first hit from R swap), then knock them away with E to avoid retaliation. And your hammer stance gives you MR/armor so you take even less doing it. This combo is BRUTAL against most champs.

I build him boots + pots --> heart of gold --> mercury boots --> hexdrinker / maw (if against heavy AP) --> trinity force as my damage source as everything it gives is a huge help, then the rest is tanky items like frozen heart, randuin's, GA. Trinity force is all you really need for some solid damage.

Favorite new champ!
