How to beat Jinx

Common role: ADC

A hyper-carry marksman who resets and goes untouchable on kills in teamfights.

What makes Jinx dangerous

Jinx switches between long-range rockets (AoE) and rapid-fire miniguns, and her passive gives huge attack and movement speed on every kill or assist, letting her snowball a won fight. Her traps and global ultimate zone and finish targets. She's weak and immobile early but becomes a game-ending late-game carry.

How to play against Jinx

• 1Punish her early — Jinx has no escape and short-range minigun damage before items. All-in her lane in the first 10-15 minutes.
• 2Deny her resets: never let her get the first kill in a teamfight, or her passive speed buff makes her impossible to catch. Focus or peel her before she snowballs the fight.
• 3She has zero mobility. Hard CC, dashes and assassins delete her — get on top of her before she can kite with her speed.
• 4Respect her rocket (AoE) range and her chompers traps around objectives — clear traps with sweepers and don't clump for her rockets.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓No dash or escape — highly vulnerable to engage.
• ✓Weak early game and short minigun range.
• ✓Falls off if denied kills/resets in fights.
• ✓Reliant on peel; punished by dive comps.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Jinx's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  罪恶快感

  金克丝每当参与击杀或摧毁一名英雄、一个史诗级野怪或一座建筑物后，她的移动速度和攻击速度就会得到显著提升。

  Strong: kills and assists grant huge attack/move speed, snowballing fights. Weak: deny her the first kill and she can't run away with the fight.

• Q
  枪炮交响曲！

  金克丝可以通过切换武器来改变普通攻击的方式。在用她的轻机枪“砰砰”攻击时，她的攻击速度会提升。在用她的火箭发射器“鱼骨头”攻击时，她的普通攻击会造成范围伤害，攻击距离提升，但会消耗法力值并且攻击得更慢。

  Strong: rockets are long-range AoE; minigun is high single-target DPS up close. Weak: minigun is short-range — engage her before she swaps to rockets and kites.

• W
  震荡电磁波！

  金克丝使用她的震荡手枪“电磁器”来发射震荡波，让被命中的第一个敌人暴露在己方视野中（可使隐形英雄现形），并对其造成伤害和减速效果。

• E
  嚼火者手雷！

  金克丝扔出一串陷阱手雷。手雷会在5秒后爆炸，让敌人着火。嚼火者手雷将会袭击路过的敌方英雄，并将他们束缚在原地。

• R
  超究极死神飞弹！

  金克丝发射一枚能够跨越整个地图的飞弹，并且飞行的时间越长，伤害值越高。飞弹会在命中一名敌方英雄后爆炸，对目标和目标附近的敌人造成伤害，且目标的生命值越低，所受的伤害值越高。

  Strong: a global rocket that executes low targets across the map. Weak: it's a slow skillshot allies can body-block — don't sit low in a straight line.

Itemization

Jinx is a crit AD marksman. Reach her with hard CC and dashes, use Exhaust in fights, and deny her the first kill to stop her passive snowball. Attack-speed slows (Randuin's, Frozen Heart) blunt her minigun DPS.
