How to Play with Rek'Sai as Jax in LoL

Overall, Jax sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Rek'Sai. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This drop shows that Rek'Sai helps Jax perform poorer in ranked League games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Jax is an ally to Rek'Sai, he gets a little increase in his total damage dealt. This change could signal that Rek'Sai provides protection for him to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Jax is played with Rek'Sai on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Rek'Sai. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Rek'Sai.

Moreover, when Jax plays with Rek'Sai on the same team, he usually takes less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could indicate that Rek'Sai does a decent job of protecting Jax in team fights.

Is Jax better when played alongside Rek'Sai?

There is no perfect companion for Jax that will always be his ideal synergy. However, overall, Rek'Sai is a very typical teammate for Jax. By locking into the same team as Jax, he decreases their win rate by -0.4% to 50.4%. This proves that there is not really a strong synergy between Jax and Rek'Sai that results in them performing not as well together than alone.

Rek'Sai has a lower difficulty than Jax. That means Jax players don't need to be very careful when lining up Rek'Sai teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a lower level of skill to cooperate well with you.

Working cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by grouping Jax and Rek'Sai together, you will not be granting your team a lot of AP. Plan to bring other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative gap in their abilities.

Regardless of your Rek'Sai ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
