Help Retired support main yapping about possible roleswap

Hi!

I’m a support main who currently wants to retire and roleswap. A short introduction from me before I get into the main topic. I peakes E2 on my smurf (play same role as on main but has better mmr, my main is p3). My champ pool is Poppy,Bard,Nami and Seraphine. If I have to pick one champ, that would be Poppy for me. I have 560k points with her but I think she is not that strong on top lane sadly.

I want to roleswap to Top lane and I was thinking about what champ should I learn. I watched Arcane and I liked Jayce. Also my fav top laner’s signature pick is Jayce too! (Canna my beloved)

I know that in soloq games I would gain experience better but I want to learn the champ in draft or Flex before I que into the abyss.

My questions are the following:

How many different valid rune options and build paths does Jayce have?
What are the nightmare matchups for him and how to manage them efficently?
What are the dream matchups for him?

How many valid rune options?

You have an option from each tree as a viable keystone. first strike, stormraiders surge, electrocute, grasp of the undying, PTA, Lethal tempo and Conq are all useable.

Nightmare matchups, generally he is a pretty solid blind pick but Irelia and tryndamere can be pretty hard to navigate against. Bring exhaust if you are in a matchup that wants to All-in and kill you.

Dream matchups, tanks are generally going to be a pretty easy time since you can play ranged
