Passive

Forged In Fire
Onslaught Jax can accumulate Heat effect while fighting. Jax gets 1 Heat stack for any attack received from an opponent, and for each performed successful Basic Attack he receives 2 Heat stacks. Jax gets 1% attack boost and 2% resistance to all negative effects per active Heat stack.

Maximal amount of Heat stacks — 30. Successful Fatal Blow instantly charges Heat to maximum.

When the Heat is fully accumulated, Jax can release it to instantly heal one of his team members, including himself, by 15% of their max Health. When the Heat is released, Jax applies Shield Break on his opponent.

If Jax tags-out, his Heat will decrease over time (1 stack per second), but not if the Heat is fully accumulated.

Team Passive

• For each additional Onslaught and Spec Ops teammate, Jax’s Heal amount is increased by 5%.
• When a teammate is healed by Heat Release, they instantly gain 1 bar of power.

Role

Onslaught Jax develops Heat through combat and chooses between keeping its offense and resistance or spending it to heal a selected ally.

Strengths

A full reserve can provide targeted recovery and power while applying Shield Break to prepare the next attack.

Weaknesses

Partial Heat decays outside combat, so an early exit loses preparation; spending full Heat also gives up the current stored-stack benefits.

Best teams

Onslaught and Spec Ops allies improve the healing, making a supported main attacker a useful recipient of both health and power.

Where to use

Use him when planned resource release can rescue a specific fighter, deciding whether to finish Heat buildup before rotating out.
