Ideal Synergies

Tryndamere

Major

bullshit op early game rng king

Nasus

Even

hard to take down early due to how tanky he is and outscales u a lot, jg diff matters here. buy exec. Seems you actually outscale him with 6 items, you will need grievous wounds, mercurial and navori. He only wins at 2k stacks if you have proper build

Darius

Even

skill matchup, never q engage, wait for his q then q on him, or if he misses his e for some reason. you can win early easily with ignite.

Aatrox

Even

pain in the ass early

Garen

Even

shouldn't be too hard with ignite. just block his q with ur e.

Sett

Tiny

good first levels but u should beat him after lvl 5 usually, take short trades and dodge his spells

Malphite

Extreme

almost impossible to solo kill in lane and has very good teamfight ulti, build wits end at some point if you want to kill him, I would suggest bork normally but it's trash tier now

Illaoi

Major

dodge her q and e and kill her at lvl 2. she is basically a minion if she misses those spells early game, your best chance is pre 6 and after that short trades until she is low enough to one shot. never 1v1 with her full hp if she has ulti and even gold

Irelia

Tiny

ez lane

Camille

Minor

don't feed her early lead and outscale try to cancel her jump with ur e

Olaf

Extreme

will always beat you in lane, you need exec

Fiora

Major

skill matchup but she usually wins early by default

Urgot

Major

never start with q on him early, you will get very low if you do it and auto lose the trade. it's very hard to play against him early on, ask for gank

Yasuo

Tiny

careful of early cheese after that he is minion

Akali

Major

Depends on skill of akali player. Either way don't fight in her shroud don't dive her unless you know you can one shot and outscale

Cho'Gath

Even

If Cho is playing passively you won't be able to kill him, but neither does he pose a threat to you. Ward to stay safe from ganks

Dr. Mundo

Even

Normally he is hard to kill but with addition of kraken slayer you might be able to finish him really fast. Buy exec

Mordekaiser

Minor

Very easy matchup just side step his spells or jump behind and whack him but his items right now are kind of busted

Renekton

Minor

Depends on skill of croc but usually he wins early and you win mid and late. always try to block his w with ur e and u even win early if you outplay him

Shen

Major

his early game is super strong and so is sunfire. You outscale him hard but he has a lot of teamfight power with his ult so if he beats you early you're in for a bad time don't get taunted under his tower

Teemo

Minor

Depends on build of teemo player. Scaling builds like dark harvest and no ignite can be punished easily. All in him at lvl 2. Try tenacity rune in this mu and magic res shard.

Yorick

Minor

Strong early game but falls off hard against you

Rengar

Even

Pretty annoying to deal with in lane, if your jg doesn't help you're pretty much guaranteed to feed him. If it's jungle rengar you won't have much trouble with him but in lane he really fuck you up, don't get poked down at lvl 6 you can trade very well

Volibear

Even

Has some 200 years level of dmg early game and a shield. If he goes ignite he really can burst you a lot. You win this until level 3 then you need to outscale and let him push so he can't run you down.

Sion

Even

Annoying as fuck champ. Good sions will try to stun you from bush when you're entering lane so don't enter the lane directly. You outscale him but he can kamikaze your towers late game with demolish and tp so make sure you beat him hard in lane and end early.

Kayle

Even

She is a monster late game and has way more tf impact than you so you need to shut her down early.

Galio

Tiny

Take Mr shard. He should usually int you if he goes top

Gragas

Extreme

Can't be killed by yourself and annoying poke

Gangplank

Even

Don't get poked and you will be fine. Take quick trades and back off to get him low

Riven

Even

Try to go even as you outscale her. If good riven player lane will be rough until 6.dont get baited into diving her

Singed

Even

I like to run ghost against him and Mr shard. You're probably gonna need triforce here for move speed too or he's just gonna run circles around you if you don't one shot him during ur stun

Kennen

Extreme

A good kennen player will destroy your hopes

Ornn

Major

Very hard to solo kill but that might change with kraken slayer. Has way more team impact than u

Vayne

Even

Jump on her and aa w and retreat during ur counter Strike if she has her spells up. If she wasted her spells before your jump then run her down. Later try to just one shot her in teamfights, if she stuns you you're usually dead. Mercs are better than tabis here

Quinn

Extreme

Very hard to deal with throughout the game

Master Yi

Minor

Jungle matchup you should beat yi at all stages in the game usually even If he outplayed ur e.

Lee Sin

Minor

This blind fool will get cocky at scuttle. You can 1v1 him if you took ignite so just auto him to death at scuttle crab. If you're playing top beware of his ganks.

Zed

Minor

He can poop you in lane with his spam but you outscale hard. Try to hold your e until he ults you if you can and stun him as soon as he comes out.

Kayn

Even

Jungle matchup seems pretty even but if you're top it seems easier to dodge his ganks. If he ults just ward hop to tower. Don't build tanky

Graves

Even

You can counter gank pretty easily and 1v1 him at lvl 3 but his vision reduction counters you hard.

Nocturne

Even

If he dodges your e your dead. You outscale late game.

Xin Zhao

Extreme

A good xin player will invade you non stop in jg and ruin your life early on

Hecarim

Even

His ganks are very effective but you outscale him

Ahri

Extreme

Not seen top but she ruins your life with her cc and magic + true damage. Also impossible to touch since she has 3 dashes and you have 1 and she also has better cc. Honestly just pray your team can deal with her or that she is bad at positioning

Brand

Extreme

As jg jax he is an easy gank but later on he becomes impossible to deal with and will shit on you in teamfights

Seraphine

Extreme

Cc similar to Ahri very annoying to play against try tenacity runes

Lux

Extreme

Can nuke you and cc u easily in teamfights

Yuumi

Ideal

yuumi good

Nunu & Willump

Ideal

disco nunu

Draven

Ideal

Active: Jax enters Evasion, a defensive stance, for up to 2 seconds, causing all basic attacks against him to miss. Jax also takes 25% reduced damage from all champion area of effect abilities. After 1 second, Jax can reactivate to end it immediately.
