Ok, I guess you can take your obviously wrong conclusions about this MU to a different thread so we can stop derailing it.
Remember that just because you can't slide under projectiles and get hit with an armored move doesn't mean its a bad MU. He deals the same chip against anyone else so you are wrong here aswell. You just get outplayed.
Its a bad mu for gm

Reading this thread brings an image to my mind: A guy with a wooden stick explaining his options vs two guys with machineguns and infinite ammo that also have the high ground.

Anyway, I love Jax, and Pumped Up in particular. But if the Gm player is not trash, this is not even a matchup, it's a rape, no matter how you look at it, specially after stupid loss of ex bf2 armor (meanwhile Tremor keeps armor on a very similar nature move that he can cancel to become the closest thing to an armor launcher. Good job nrs). Even Balanced pretty much rapes Jax now, that's where last patch left him.

Things pointed out in the thread (although some are very hard to perform with consistency) will be useful though, to those that are masochistic enough to face the struggle.

Scrubby nice guy
1) He gets outzoned 2) ff has a much better nuetral 3) has a great armor that doesn't care about clone I really dont know what else to tell you
1) If outzoned = can't sit behind the clone from fullscreen then yes, I agree. 2) Not that much 3) Armor that can be low profiled/jumped over for a punish. We can stop derailing the thread again pls.

Even without behind clone, you still get outzoned, you need to be in his face to get damage. His rushdown and buttons are just far better than sz. You cannot low profile unless you're certain characters, being sz is not one of them. And even at that, the jump over and low profile is on a read or covering options which means clone is useless. Hence the bad mu
