I Know I'll probably get a lot of flak for this, but does anyone think Jax needs a rework? Don't get me wrong I don't believe he's over or under powered, but he's (like a lot of season 0/1 champs) extremely mechanically unintensive and passive.

I mean, he has a targetted gap closer, an auto attack modifier (that gives only damage), his E is just a temporary AA and specific skill immunity that does not interrupt his ability to perform any actions (its only tricky usage is the ability to end it early for the AoE stun), and his ultimate is a passive that's literally a stronger form of his W, and the active component is purely bonus defences.

I don't want to say Jax is a "faceroll" champ just because he isn't massively physically demanding to play, League is at the end of the day a strategy game and good map presence, vision, positioning etc. will always trump raw physical ability like reflexes and timing. But I do think that his lack of complexity combined with his late game oriented scaling makes him a boring champ that's unrewarding to play because of how passive playing him is.
