I main solo top J4. Over 200 games, easily. I don't believe in Triforce, even though it does help your burst. My problem is that it will usually only increase your burst by 2x your base ad plus 60 and a crit if you're lucky. You've got two gap-closers so the MS isn't really all that necessary. The item costs too damn much for 2x base ad plus 60 and a measly 250 hp. FM synergizes completely with his kit.

I don't WM anymore because I FM and he has other HP items that are viable if you need more.

I don't LW anymore because it synergizes poorly with Dragon Lance.

My lategame build: FM, possible Atma's, Maul, situational. Oh, and Jungle Jarvan plays much differently and should be built tankier, imo. Rust's jungle build seems pretty legit to me, though I admittedly have limited experience in the area(around 50 games).
