Early Game Phase Top
You should take Joule to the jungle. Her second skill offers very fast camp clears. Be weary that every time you use her second skill within eight seconds it increases the energy cost but it also increase the damage up to a maximum of six stacks. Make sure to not always use it when its at six in the early game because it will drain your energy even with a battery. Farming camps should be your priority. You can pick fights but without a teammate your as good as dead -_- Other junglers are far more effective in dealing quick damage to you while you have to wait till you get six stacks then destroy. Your jump does lots of damage too. Sometimes you can outplay and get the first blood; you should always keep a potion going after a camp and then invade while the other enemies have low health or wait till they enter the shop with low - 75 % health but even then trust me its still hard (run from Krul). Do not fight them by yourself when they're full healthed. You should also prioritize on ganking the lane something that Joule is very good at. You should jump on the enemy hero then auto then second skill easy as that. You can take the kill for yourself but you should definitely let your other teammates get the kill money too. your not going to be the strongest late game.
You should also max your first abilitie because of its overload it has a lower cooldown and such.
Mid Game or so Top
You should be jumping all over the place engaging fights. Make sure to wait for your teammates. Your Jumping and slashing and beaming could very well change the battle. The moment you get your ult is the moment you start the destruction. Before you beam you should wait for the enemy team to be clumped together or in place because of there abilities or if there taking an objective. You can jump and then beam or bait them. If you get a squishy enemy team with purely damage then you will honestly destroy all of them in one beam. You should walk into a bush that connects the lane and beam right down it when they chase you so they cant dodge it. Finding the right opportunity to beam is pretty easy but hard. You have to wait for the right time and the element of surprise will be on your side.
Late Game Top
This is where Joule DOES NOT shine. Late game is honestly a nightmare for Joule. If your ahead in kills and such then you should be a little better but if everyone has maxed builds then your screwed. By this time people should definitely have some type of armor and health so your beam wont do the best it can do and your second ability will literally become useless. If you die then its ok as long as your team can cleanup the enemy team. If your the enemy teams target then its fine because you cant really dish out the damage. Your beam will still be effective but as i said a moment ago not too effective. Maybe for sniping a kill or so.
