I main Jinx and had around 200k champion points on her but still Im not good enough and had to rely on a good support. I really love jinx and would like to play her well. Please simply gimme some suggestions or kindly tutor me if you wish. I did do some researches online about laning as ADC and jinx guides, tho i still don't seek huge improvements. :(

BTW, thank you, the guy that reminded me to post in gameplay lol.

d5 adc/supp here

add me if you want some halp ^_^.

Just looking at your op.gg, your cs is weak and you're building item 3094 over item 3085 , which I can't see being very good.

I agree with NOO nickname, lately I've been doing whatever role on league just because but I did main adc's in ranked and had a lot of success

**Practice farming, make a custom match with only you, take off your runes and masteries. Try and get 100 CS by the 10 minute mark. If you can average about 75-90 CS per 10 min you'll do much better in the match. Most LCS players have 200-300+ CS by the end of the game.

Kiting is super important, practice moving away from a target between shots. Shoot, move, shoot, move, shoot, move. It takes practice but if you can master it then you can do significantly more damage.

Postioning. It's important to stay behind your front line, You're the ADC you should be doing a large amount of damage, and if you've been laning well, the focus will most likely be on you. stay behind your tanks support until you can reach the other team, preferably after they use their ults and CC/engage abilities on other champions.**

ALSO AS A JINX player myself. Jinx naturally has large attack speed based off her Q ability passive. It's above 1.0 a second at level 5 without any item enhancements if you build a classic rune and mastery page for her. So this gives her the advantage in the instance that she doesn't need to build an attack speed item until her berserker greeves. Rush one AD heavy item, then a second AD heavy item while buying item 3006 By the time you finish all three of these items you'll have nearly about 1.5-1.9 attack speed. But you'll also have more AD than what other champions.

One big thing about Jinx too is that she only gets that attack speed boost from her Machine gun, which has lower range, so if you build these items, you can take on most champions.

item 3006 item 3031 item 3072 item 3085 item 3036 item 3156 You'll have a counter item to assassins, and to tanks. You'll have High AD with a good amount of life steal BUT your Runaans hurricane almost triples the healing when your in machine gun mode because all of your shots will be shooting out other bolts that will both crit on enemies and heal you for that damage. Along with these you'll also have 250% bonus damage 50% (maybe 60% i forgot) crit rate and you'll shoot 2 times per second.

You'll heal a ton, do a ton of damage, and counter assassins/mages/tanks it's an easy build to win with

Try building the 4 items first if your team is ahead, if you're behind, rush one of the counter items first depending on which enemy champion is causing the most damage against you/your team.

Hope all that could help, if you'd like to do a few matches let me know and we'll go over some other laning phase stuff you can do with jinx, like aiming at the ranged minions with rockets to both kill them and poke the other ADC.

KITE , FARM , POSITIONING. 3 Important things for ADC Watched your match history and I can say that you need to improve your farming , try to focus on farming early game , more farming than killing enemies , cause if you will focus on killing you will lose farm , but if you focus on farm later kills will come to you ;) And try to experiment with builds , because good jinx without Hurricane can be strong too , I have tried Ghostblade before it's nerf and I can say it worked. Oh and BTW best keystone for ADCs is Fervor of battle or Warlords sometimes , Thunderlord doesn't work good with Jinx

There's an advice I give most Jinx players when I end up playing support with them

When a teamfight begins, forget your Q, leave rockets on and stay at far as possible, I've seen way too many Jinx going up close with pow pow at the start of a teamfight only to blow up.

Also, remember the damage on your traps is quite noticeable, use them as a zoning tool, they'll probably avoid getting snared by them but if they stand close when they explode they'll receive quite some damage.

Don't save your ult, if you're about to die fire it and hit some people with it, it's a finisher I know, but there's almost no use in keeping if there's people still fighting, if you're the last man standing, keep it, and as soon as you come back up fire it at baron.
