About Jaina Top
Jaina has many different options to her. She can be very tanky or just as easily be extremtly squishy, high damage burst or a persistant CC machine.
This build is all about her as a burst mage. Not only is she a great pushing champion as well.
Essentially the build is based around burst down someone or someones with your level 20 elemental changing your playstyle a bit.
Early Game Top
Starting as early as level 1 you have immediate poke ability with all your moves. I prefer to take Deep chill to get that extra 10% slow. I have tested The duration and its not really a problem when your chasing ur running, and the frostbolt range isnt that necessary since you can kite so well.
I usually start with cone of cold at this stage followed by frost bolt or blizzard depending on if they are in a creep wave or not. I start with cone of cold to make sure they are nice and slowed so that way a well placed blizzard has a higher chance of both waves hitting.
Tier 2 talent allows you to start sniping enemies behind creeps, the second part still chills so remeber if you hit an enemy follow up with a snow storm or cone of cold, your damage is all about chaining spells due to the AMAZING trait.
Tier 3 Talent Changes everything. The other talents are great, 15% damage to chilled etc etc.
2 seconds reduction on frostbolt when it hits a chilled target
2
SECONDS
let me break down your rotation for what it can be called
cone of cold, frost bolt, blizzard, frost bolt, more frostbolt cause they are slowed for 4 seconds and you hit them every 2/3 (projectile travel distance, this means you ORBWALKING!!@!@!@!!$!$%%!@$!!%^!@!@!) If you don't know what that is google how to orbwalk. there is youtube stuff for other games, the same princple applies (also if you play league or dota or whatever and you don't do this you should start you filthy casual)
Mid Game Top
ITS HERE!!! THE MIDGAME IS REAL YOU HAVE HIT 10!!!
Get ice elemental. I know ring of frost is SUPER strong, a really good CC that can wreck a team. HOWEVER at level 20 your elemental is so broken its ok, not to mention its level 1 does do a decent bit of damage, is great at seiging a tower/keep/objective(jungle) but it also chills its targets, great for when you kill your first target and you can swap right to the next, or stick the elemental on that zeratul so he cant invis, the elemental is ranged and slows!
This doesnt change your overall rotation yet except drop the elemental first. REMEBER TO PRESS R(or your ult keybind) after you have summoned your elemental to have him focus who you want.
Icy Veins is a CD that akin to its wow counterpart basically gives you rapid fire frostbolts however in HotS it also lowers the cooldown of your other basic abilities. It also reduces mana costs.
Use this when bursting someone down, they will die. When you have rank 2 elemental you want to summon your elemental first.
Northern Exposure! More damage!! so you are going to want to open with this and use this on cooldown. Not only does it make them take 25% more damage, but it also chills once again enabling for MORE BURST on the target(s) but it really shines once you are 20.
The Final Frontier Top
Now we are cooking with frostfire.
Level 2 Elemental
.
.
.
where to begin
ok
so he still auto attacks and chills and does everything that rank 1 did,
But now he mimics your abilities for 50% reduced damage
that means on targets that are chilled your abilities are doing your trats damage both from you and your elemental
and frostbolt pierces a target and has a 2 second cooldown if yours hits a chilled target
and they are slowed by 35%
and remember that northern exposure we talked about earlier
yeah that buff stacks
50% increased damage to targets that are hit with both your and your elementals cone of cold, followed by a frostbolt to the face that is on rapid fire because not only is icyveins going at the start of a fight but it has almost no cooldown when coupled with hitting a chilled target
The elemental does cast blizzard its just cast on the exact same spot yours is!
EVEN MOAR OP
so thats the guide, hope you liked it. I will update it as time goes on if I remember. Maybe.
