I actually like jax's region. Unlike evelynn, most of the weaponmaster cards work outside of Jax decks in both of their respective regions. I think that that's a cool way to use runterra champions, unlike evelynn, who would be the same if she was in shadow isles.

I'm honestly sick to death of the whining about the origins. It's gotten childish as hell, especially since the only champion who doesn't have a similar origin is *the most restrictive in his decks*, has only ever had one viable deck, and that deck sucks.
@@17thknight Whether intentionally or ignorantly, you misunderstand the criticism. It's not about creating a super flexible origin, it's about creating an origin that allows for actual deckbuilding. What decisions do you really make when creating a Jax/Kayne/Bard/Evelynn deck? You may cut a really bad and expensive card and maybe only run 2 copies of another. They are completely self contained champions who will receive a new card once every blue moon if Riot feels like it because they would have to go out of their way to give weaponmaster or cultist or a chime or a husk to a card. You know how often Pantheon or Xerath receive a card? Every single time Riot prints a Targon buff card or a Shuriman landmark!! For that matter, do you know how often Jhin receives a card? You falsely equate Jhin being weak and having only one deck to Jhin not having a good origin, and that couldn't be more disingenuous. There a tons of champions with only one deck, but that doesn't mean that they are inflexible or badly designed, and there are a ton of incredibly weak champions as well. The difference is that Jhin's origin actually interacts with the rest of the game. It has you look at cards in a new and different way. It actually delivers on the concept pitched by Riot during the original announcement for Runeterran champions. Also, nobody cares if you think this criticism has gone on too long. The problem still persists, so the criticism of that problem will continue as well.
@@Liverator Tell me: Which champion had the most viable decks out of Evelyn, Bard, and Jihn? Which one actually had a viable deck in *every* region in the game? Jihn is just as prepackaged except he's 10x worse.
its fine if they "run out of mechanics" the game is at a point where it will get better from just adding more to each already existing thing. example more deep, more evolve, more equipment, more forge, more flow. more of the mechanics that barely have support.

Jax better be so fucking OP! I still remember getting penta killed by a Jax player 1v5 in the LoL days even before it was called season 1. Obviously i had to have this champ, so i safe up all my RP and when i finally got him he was actually still broken as fuck.

I'm not even joking when I say grapplr's technique of killing mosquitoes works surprisingly well. Tried it myself and it works wonders. I still stand by my statement when I say runeterran champs are lazily designed because they have their own premade deck.
Ok why is it that three of the four runeterra champs we have so far are basically just big stats with boring origins? Like I was super excited when I saw Jhin’s origin and I couldn’t wait to see what sorts of creative effects Riot could come up with but now it’s just “here’s a small mini-region that only does one thing and also here’s some massive stats so it’s actually good.” Like come on you have so much potential on these champions but y’all keep wasting it
@@brokeguy5607 what? Dude Bard is THE "big vanilla block with stupid inflated stats" card. He's super boring and a huge letdown. Chimes are not interesting whatsoever.

Exactly, this would be way better and much more interesting. Just make him open to all cards that have "Equip" in their card text. Boom done. The way it is now, Jax can only ever be supported with Weaponmaster tagged cards specifically, and at that point they could just as well have tagged them "Jax" anyway.
Entrancing Lure is strong... why are people saying it's bad? It's Noxus, a region that doesn't have already have a way to give challenger, and only like 3 or 4 units that come with it.
on the first improvise, you get 2 different options from 8, one of them being the scout one. Once you've got another improvise, it becomes 2/7, and so on.
Jax is rly boring with this Origin, but 2 mana 3/2 quick attack, i think it's the strongest 2 drop in the game in terms of stats, we got a lot of 2 mana 2/2 quick atk
