Maokais Passiv macht ihn extrem widerstandsfähig gegenüber konzentrierten Beschuss mit Fähigkeiten – zumindest solange er normale Angriffe ausführen kann.
Versuche, den Gegner zu flankieren, oder Situationen auszunutzen, in denen „Wurzelfänge“ unausweichlich ist oder den Gegner überrascht.
Sprösslinge, die ins Gebüsch geworfen werden, sind stärker – doch in der Gruppe nicht unbedingt effektiver.
Versuch, ihn nur mit kurzen Attacken anzugreifen, anstatt ihn in einen dauerhaften Nahkampf zu verwickeln. Hindert man ihn daran, fortlaufend anzugreifen, kann man sein Schadenspotential deutlich verringern.
Jax' kann allen Angriffen kurzzeitig ausweichen und er betäubt danach alle nahen Gegner, weshalb es sich auszahlen kann, hier gegebenenfalls etwas länger zu warten.
