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 Corki

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Don't count on your minions

    Don't count on your minions against Missile Barrage (R): each missile explodes on impact and damages enemies around it, you included.

  2. Leave his Gatling cone

    Get out of the Gatling Gun (E) cone rather than trading inside it: it lowers your armor and magic resist while it fires.

  3. Avoid brushes hit by his bomb

    Don't rely on a brush hit by Phosphorus Bomb (Q): the area and the champions hit stay revealed for a few seconds.

  4. Engage after his dash

    If you can engage, wait until Valkyrie (W) or Special Delivery is used: he's then vulnerable, with no way to reposition.
