Learn how to Jinx counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Engage on Jinx when her E (Flame Chompers) is on cooldown — this is her only defensive ability and has a very long cooldown early game (24 seconds at rank 1).
Lane Phase Skirmish
Position yourself outside the minion wave when laning against Jinx — her Fishbones (Q rocket launcher) deals splash damage in a 250-unit radius that can hit both you and minions simultaneously.
Basic Lane Phase
Stay behind minions to block her W (Zap!) — this ability is blocked by the first enemy hit, making minions effective shields against its damage and strong slow (up to 80%).
Basic Lane Phase
Focus on crowd-controlling Jinx in teamfights before she gets a takedown — her passive grants 175% movement speed and up to 125% attack speed after a kill, allowing her to quickly chain multiple kills.
Advanced Team Fight
Maintain some distance between teammates in fights — Jinx's Fishbones (Q rocket launcher) and ultimate both deal AOE damage that punishes grouped targets in a 400-unit radius.
Team Fight
Be cautious when at low health, especially during objectives — Jinx's ultimate deals additional damage based on missing health (up to 35%) and can steal objectives from across the map.
Late Game Team Fight
If laning against Jinx, try to engage when she's alone — she's highly dependent on allies for protection due to her complete lack of mobility outside of her passive.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Ping your team when Jinx fires her ultimate toward other lanes. Warning allies about incoming rockets can help them dodge.
