Why Dr. Mundo is favored

Goes Where He Pleases(P) blocks the first immobilizing effect, so it can absorb the stun from Jax's Counter Strike(E). Infected Bonesaw(Q) slows Jax and Maximum Dosage(R) gives Mundo speed and healing, letting him kite out Jax's all-in and recover afterward.

How to play as Dr. Mundo

Keep your passive available to block Counter Strike(E), land Infected Bonesaw(Q) before Jax closes, and use Maximum Dosage(R) when he commits so you can kite or outlast the duel.

Goes Where He Pleases(P) blocks the first immobilizing effect, including Counter Strike(E)'s stun while the passive is ready.

Infected Bonesaw(Q) slows Jax, while Maximum Dosage(R) adds movement speed and regeneration; together they make it difficult for Jax to keep Mundo in an extended fight.

How to play as Jax

Look for early pressure, but commit only after Mundo's passive has been triggered and his Infected Bonesaw(Q) is unavailable. Otherwise he can slow you, run out of range, and heal back up.
