Volibear into Jaxmedium

Overview

Prioritize early objective starts and coordinate level 6 dives to deny Jax's side-lane dominance.
Maintain vision to enable safe invades and counter-invades when lanes have priority.

Jungle Plan

Path toward lanes with strong dive potential and coordinate with laners for early skirmishes before Jax's item spikes.
Use early health leads and river vision to secure dragon and Rift Herald before Jax scales.
Track Jax's first clear and be ready to counter-gank or invade when his is down or after he uses aggressively.

Danger windows

Avoid river fights when Jax's stun is available to block damage and counter-engage.
Do not contest objectives or smite fights at low health early where Jax's dueling and stun can punish.
Watch for isolated fights after Jax uses without , as he is vulnerable to counter-engage or invade then.
