The magic damage that Kayle deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Jayce deals mainly physical damage (77.63%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Kayle player to maintain constant pressure on Jayce, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
