I will add one thing just on the runes, as a Jinx main of 5 of so years. Cut down is very good in certain circumstances, you are 100% correct on the base hp making it awkward for the lane and early game, but say for example the enemy team locks in two or more tanks or champions that consistently have over 3k hp by late game, in this scenario cut down will do probably 3x more damage total than coup. Coup is generally the best option, but if the game requires you to build LDR quickly, cutdown is a must imo
90% of what TH-cam recommends me from this channel are oneshot joke shorts and I didn't think there's anything else to see here, so finding a 12 minute video that offers genuine advice was a pleasant surprise :>
My girl Jinx! I am a Jinx main mostly, and play Zeri too but a ton more of Jinx than anybody. You're 100% correct, I've never felt Jinx is weak, even though her winrate is lower than most ADCs right now. Actually the opposite, she's very strong. My favorite part about Jinx is you can control lane with her if you use her range correct, and there's a million ways to carry teamfights. If all else fails I like to front to back, and spam rockets from outside of range of anyone and just melt frontlines. 3 item spike is definitely you coming "online" and you usually want to play for that. Only thing that feels rough against Jinx is heavy divers/assassins, in which case Galeforce, Rapid fire and GA are good options. I love Jinx, you guys should play her to get some elo!
It may be very wrong, but I find she is also very good at clearing jungle mid-late game as well as being a relatively safe split push since if the tower is cleared, her passive provides a safe getaway. Also, I really like starting with IE instead of kraken since the first backing for a BF sword provides insane poke potential in lane. Kraken first is good for extended fights but I don't get many of those to start, I only get a few hits in so might as well make them hit hard.
As an otp Jinx those weeks I felt with 0 motivation to play my main, every single champion deals more dmg than Jinx (EVEN NAMI AND OTHER PEEL SUPPS) but this video motivated me again to play her, I didn't learn anything thing new (1M pts here) but thanks for the motivation for real
900k jinx here, i know she deal less dmg than some adc, but HOW can you deal less damage than support ? i'm a jinx otp and i always get the 2nd or the highest dmg of my team, else you don't play well, else you lie
@@dryoshili I'm talking about early skirmishes where you have 1000hp and the nami combo deals 600-800 then the enemy adc/jgler kills you with 200. Obviously by the time the match is finished I'm top dmg. For example a niyla yummi 2 lvls behind without items kill you with no problem at early stages no matter the lvl and item advantage. This may sound as a "you don't position yourself correctly" moment but trust me, sometimes even the weakest enemies deals absurd amount of base dmg at early game and Jinx has nothing to do( that's how she is designed at early)
finally!! i had a huge phantom dancer bias ever since i started playing jinx a couple months back, and never really ran with any other zeal item. it's so nice seeing an exact build i'm almost never 100% sure will work in meta be confirmed to be viable in this vid.
I'm not one to often subscribe to channels, but once i found your content, i've jumped into a very deep rabbit hole of watching all your videos, Bravo, keep up the amazing content you really are so talented
Wow! That was a great video, when I started league Jinx was my go to. I switched to Cass mid for my ranked games. I might have to go back to Jinx. Thanks for this video. I indeed learned a lot, never realized how weak she was early.
What amaze me us how the more simple kits are at the end thevmore effective, junk and Cait are very old champs, Ashe is simple too, but curiously these 3 can be almost always valuable team members, while weir champs like zeri ends being useless
i wouldnt say whatever works in high elo also works in low elo... there are plenty of things/strategies that works in high elo that dont work in low elo. maybe mid elo though like gold-diamond
Low elo tip, peel might as well be a city in China. Save your E to peel for yourself and not for engage. It's hard to play adc the way you are supposed to in low elo, so play like you are alone and jinx can carry.
I go with runaan's when we're behind for 2 reasons 1. the wave clear 2. in team fights it does more aoe damage and easier to get an assist to proc her passive if we're ahead i go with phantom dancer
Is infinity Edge becoming a mythic the reason why Kraken slayer was downgraded to a legendary? I haven't been playing these past few patches, so I haven't kept up with the meta.
It's only good if your team can peel you and it's not story about soloq, even in high elo. Which is why people prefer more mobile ADCs so you can peel yourself
Note: dont play jinx if there is an enemy assassin: zed, eve, rengar, kha, etc. Your team can't peel you and without you as a hypercarry in extended fights, its a guaranteed loss.

Oh yeah and don't forget Kog'maw, they almost always run resolve second tree with overgrowth or whatever it's called
Until Talon one shots her
Until anyone one shots her
Talon/zed/ahri/leblanc/evelyn/kha'zix/rengar....
Until someone NTR's her

I really love your voice, the gameplays and guides.
Thanks for all the information and your videos

I have improved a lot because of your videos

Just wait until the patch next week, she's got buffs on PBE and they should go live next Wednesday. In the mean time play Kog'Maw 😂
@@Gilthwixt1 You are god damn right. I'm not into Kog maw, I'm more into Zeri but yeah I'm impacient with Jinx buffs
jinx does go brrrr!

1:31 thank yoi very much, i never knew how to use her q untill now!
0:55 that's.... the Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour deck edit music.
love the format, would love to see a video for vayne soon

Wow! That was a great video, when I started league Jinx was my go to. I switched to Cass mid for my ranked games. I might have to go back to Jinx. Thanks for this video. I indeed learned a lot, never realized how weak she was early.
the reason stacking ad is so strong on jinx in particular is because she has very high ad scalings on her fishbones, w, and ult
this video convinced to download League just to play with my friend, also I will most certainly become a little jinx goblin now
that 6 min fight was so winnable if nami just hit her cc lmao
i like the runaans more than PD but only in games where you play front to back, the item passive is absolutely nuts in close quarters team fights
I still think she's been relatively weak since they nerfed her and all her items but I still love her
these videos so insightful
Love this style of video! Xayah soon?

junk lmao
@@luckas221a Overwatch 2 is so bad Junkrat mine jumped into a different game.
She works until the 0/5 Garen gets bored of killing minions
Shes getting quite big buffs next patch too 😢🎉
i wouldnt say whatever works in high elo also works in low elo...
there are plenty of things/strategies that works in high elo that dont work in low elo. maybe mid elo though like gold-diamond
Jinx is a low elo champ
@@escapegrass She still works in high elo tho, 55% winrate in master+
can you pls do one for twitch? :>
Yess jinx videos 🥰🥰
After watching this I got my first positive KD!
Low elo tip, peel might as well be a city in China. Save your E to peel for yourself and not for engage. It's hard to play adc the way you are supposed to in low elo, so play like you are alone and jinx can carry.
I go with runaan's when we're behind for 2 reasons
1. the wave clear
2. in team fights it does more aoe damage and easier to get an assist to proc her passive
if we're ahead i go with phantom dancer
I almost 100% runaans, but it makes sense to have some variety based on the game, I suppose ill consider phantom now.
Jinx main, love her

Where's the part where jinx dies to assassins anyway?
8:08 omg look at subscribe button guys
Runaans > PD on Jinx.
~ a 700k M7 Jinx one trick whos played since 2015.
what i learned this video: ban soraka
5:47 League in a nutshell.
0:45 first bs of the video xD
We like to be discret here so Riot dosen't ruin our fun in sake of boring pro play

"What works in higher elo alwasys works in lower elo" lol
Jinx diff
Kraken slayer is not crucial at all. I suggest trying to rush Rapid Firecannon. I've been trying this and having great success.
nami missed everything :D
That's a bit too much, don't you think?
no its a lie, dont believe him, dont pick or ban jinx ever
Untill zed uses flash R. Then it doesnt matter how fed you are and he 100-0s you
1 minute in and already spoke more than 5 falshoods i cant watch it sorry
