I play Jarvan a lot...and I would say that his ult is a counter to flash more than flash is a counter to his ult. If someone has flash, they really don't want to use it unless you ult them, but if they don't flash, you can very easily kill them without ult....  It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't.   Jarvan's laning is very strong in all but a few matchups. His survivability and damage are excellent. He can exert so much control in a fight. You can easily take their carries out of the fight and/or protect your own carries.

If there is an enemy Jarvan, you really really really need wards like mad...he is someone that you have to react to far in advance. This isn't WW, Trynd, Irelia, etc. coming out of the bushes or flanking you...he's a very different beast.
