Jinx, one of the characters that has taken the meta as a middle name for a while, never loses its popularity among LoL champions. In addition to being really dangerous in terms of damage, he becomes a very difficult character to avoid with the attack speed and movement speed he gains from his passive.
Jinx, who uses her basic attacks as her biggest weapon, can turn into a monster with the help of her passive from the middle stages of the game, although she does not show this power in the early stages of the game. We decided to take a closer look at this monster Jinx’s CTs (Counters), abilities, strengths and weaknesses.
Jinx CTs: Strong counters against Jinx
- Ziggs
- Veigar
- Kai’Sa
- Twitch
- Jhin
While it’s undeniably a strong character, Jinx’s early stage isn’t all that strong. In addition, characters who can use their range and harass enemies with their abilities can trouble Jinx at an early stage. Although this situation changes in the later stages of the game, the lane phase is of great importance for the early game.
All abilities of Zaun’s madman Jinx:
- Passive / Moon So Exciting!: Jinx can be used by an enemy champion, epic jungle monster, or gains a massive movement speed and attack speed increase when assisting the building to be killed, cut, or destroyed.
- Q / Swap!: Jinx switches between her machine gun Dan Dan and her rocket launcher Fishbone, giving her basic attacks different abilities. Attacks with Dan Dan grant attack speed, while attacks with Fishbone deal AoE damage and range increase; but it consumes mana and is slower.
- W / Chizz!: Jinx fires her stun gun, Jigsaw, dealing damage, slowing, and revealing the first enemy champion she fires.
- E / Popper: Jinx throws grenade traps in a line that explode after 5 seconds, setting enemies on fire. Bursts knock down enemy champions that walk over them.
- R / Maniac Powerful Death Rocket!: Jinx fires a super rocket that gains damage as it travels across the map. When the rocket hits an enemy champion, it explodes, dealing damage to them and surrounding enemies based on their missing health.
Bollard Jinx’s strengths and weaknesses:
Jinx’s strengths:
- Through her passive gain a high amount of attack speed and movement speed
- Has faster and short range damage or different normal attacks from further away and area range thanks to his Q ability
- can support anywhere on the map with his ultimate ability or being able to kill opponents in different lanes
Jinx’s passive is very effective, especially from the mid-levels. The attack speed and movement speed it provides can be quite strong for a basic attack oriented character. In addition, thanks to the return of his Q ability, he can shape his basic attacks to a certain extent. His ultimate ability, on the other hand, not only provides assistance to his team across the map, but also allows him to easily kill opponents from other corridors.
Jinx’s weak stats:
- Being quite fragile like most attack damage carriers
- Very weak against crowd controls
- Very good for mobility being vulnerable to raids in the lane phase
Jinx, like many attack power carriers, suffers from being rather fragile because she doesn’t have many options. It is also one of the weak points of the character in crowd control abilities. Mobility is another problematic phenomenon. The movement speed from his passive is quite reasonable, but he doesn’t always manage to save as he activates under certain conditions.
How to play Jinx in LoL?
- Your Q skill is very important in battles. Fishbone is quite powerful, but since Dan Dan’s attacks are faster, it can be more effective especially against nearby enemies
- It is useful to keep a constant eye on the map. In this way, you can support different corridors with your ultimate ability
- . You can both kill minions and destroy your opponents with your rockets in the corridor phase
Jinx’s Q ability is an important skill during the war. Fishbone hits hard, and faster attacks with Dan Dan will be more beneficial to strong but close-range champions. It’s a good idea to keep an eye on the map. In this way, you can get a chance to kill potential opponents with your ultimate ability. You will also take precautions against possible raids in your corridor. Jinx’s basic mechanics are not much different compared to any attack power characters. Positioning to use your normal attacks well is one of the most basic ways to play many attack power characters in general. Of course, when it comes to Jinx, it is very important to position according to your Q ability, as her Q ability is included in your normal attacks.
How to play against Jinx, how to beat Jinx?
- Jinx’s ultimate will deal more damage as the range increases. So if you don’t have a chance to dodge, it’s safest to be exposed at close range
- Jinx’s drop-offs have a pretty high cooldown and since it’s the only defensive ability Jinx has, if you manage to dodge this ability, you’ll have an opportunity to attack
- Jinx can attack you at the same time as he is killing minions, as he can do area effect attacks with his awn weapon. That’s why you should play as far away from minions as possible
Jinx’s ultimate is an ability that can deal more damage the farther it hits. Of course, avoiding is the most logical solution, but if there is no such thing as avoiding, it will be the most logical to be exposed at close range. Jinx’s bursting ability is her ultimate ability to defend herself. If you manage to evade this ability or Jinx wastes this ability, there will be a great opportunity to attack you. Since Jinx’s awn weapon has an area effect attack feature, she can attack you without any effort while she is killing minions in the corridor. So play as safe as you can and avoid taking free damage. “How to play Jinx?” As we mentioned in the section, Jinx’s biggest weapon is her basic attacks. If he can create positions where he can use his normal attacks comfortably, the potential to get you in trouble is quite high. Therefore, it is useful to prevent him from creating this position as much as you can.
