Champion Tips

Riot official

Playing as

  • Be sure to switch stances often. It will enhance your attacks and grant you quick bursts of speed.
  • If you find yourself taking lots of damage try using Jayce's Hammer Stance as it grants you additional defenses.
  • Try casting Shock Blast through the Acceleration Gate for increased range and damage.

Playing against

  • Jayce can attack in melee or at range. Pay attention to his stance and weapon color to know how he is going to attack.
