Playing as Jinx

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Poke with rockets, trade with minigun

    Poke with Fishbones, the rocket launcher of Switcheroo! (Q), for its range and splash damage, then swap back to the minigun for long trades.

  2. Kite whoever charges you

    Fire Zap! (W) to kite the bruiser running at you or catch an enemy who's fleeing: it slows and reveals the first enemy hit.

  3. Put your traps in their path

    Throw Flame Chompers! (E) in the path of their engage or their escape: they root the champion who steps on them and last 5 seconds.

  4. Focus the lowest-health target

    In teamfights, focus the lowest-health target first: each takedown triggers Get Excited! (passive), a big boost to attack speed and move speed.

  5. Save your rocket to finish

    Fire Super Mega Death Rocket! (R) to finish a fleeing enemy rather than to start a fight: its damage grows with their missing health and over its first second of flight.

Playing against Aurelion Sol

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Stay behind your minions: Breath of Light (Q) hits the first enemy in its path, and only the seconds spent on a champion give him Stardust.

  2. Play hard early

    Play hard early and don't let the game drag on: with Cosmic Creator (passive), each of Aurelion Sol's abilities grows permanently stronger through Stardust.

  3. Get out of the black hole fast

    Leave Singularity (E) quickly: it pulls you toward its center, where it executes enemies below a health threshold, and each second inside gives him Stardust.
