League of Legends - updates for Jax are met with disappointment


League of Legends Jax has had changes which have left the community disappointed as the champion now feels 'ruined'.

The developer team at Riot Games for LoL have expressed interest in focussing this year on fixing older or unviable champions.

One of these champions set to receive some updates was Jax, Grandmaster at Arms.

His mid-scope update was received in the most recent patch of the game which was released yesterday.

And already, the community have noticed some big issues within his kit.

So, let's see how the community is reacting to the bad updates made to Jax in LoL.

Reddit Complaints About the New Jax

A Reddit post on the official LoL Reddit has listed many of the major issues that have come with the updated version of this champion.

Firstly, there have been many people discussing the VFX and animations of Jax as feeling slow and laggy.

In particular, his third R passive hit has been described as if he is trying to 'uppercut'... probably not a move that Jax would like to make.

His ultimate ability animation also has lost a lot of the punch compared to his original version.

Nothing has Changed Since the League of Legends PBE

For those people lucky enough to test the reworked champion in the PBE, the results are not good.

The PBE environment is the place to test champion or in-game changes before they are released into the live game.

However, some players who have done this have seen no change since the PBE with the usual issues persisting.

This disappointment paired with the anger at the recent LoL 2023 cinematic has made one upset community.
