    Tips :

    The main harass spell in the lane phase because of its damage, weak mana cost, and the fact that it lets you push back your enemy if he tries to use his gap closer.

    This spell is very efficient for helping your jungler after a pull of the AP mid, by repushing the buff.

    Lets Jayce have some heavy magic damage and prevents your opponent from stacking armour.

    When well used, this spell lets move your opponent away from his tower during a gank from your jungler, or repush the enemy jungler when he tries to gank you.

      A powerful harass range in the lane phase

      A movespeed buff for the whole team

      A big burst with his E (Thundering Blow)

      Some poke with his combo A (Shock Blast) +E (Acceleration Gate)

      Can move quite fast with his ultimate and his E (Acceleration Gate)

      Able to go through walls with his A (To the Skies!)

      Cons

      Quite weak for a bruiser, especially a long range one

      No dash to escape, positioning is very important

      No real ultimate, so no change in gameplay at level 6

      Difficult to master in the first games

      Requires vision of the game to deal well with teamfights, you can dies quickly in these if you are not careful
