He is not even the best toplaner right now. Irelia does what Jax does right now in the midgame much better and games do not extend into the 40 minute mark in the current meta, often relying on midgame teamfights to determine the outcome of the game. Though Jax spikes midgame, there are other champions such as Sion, Maokai, Irelia, etc who offer much more in a midgame teamfight.

His split is really strong though, and his laning can be alright if you subliment his rather weak early with a few dorans blades.
