Guide to Countering Jayce as Vel'Koz

Tips for Playing as Vel'Koz against Jayce

Be very careful about when to use Life Form Disintegration Ray. Many champions have abilities that can interrupt the spell.

Shooting Plasma Fission diagonally and splitting at maximum range allows you to hit opponents that are out of the range of the initial missile, but is more challenging to pull off.

When laning, use Void Rift to kill minions while building stacks of Organic Deconstruction on your opponent. You can then follow up with your other abilities.

Advice to Win Against Jayce

Jayce is strong in the early game. If he gains the advantage, play defensively.

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

If you see Jayce drop his Acceleration Gate, be careful, he is probably about to cast Shock Blast.
