Immobile, weak earty game adc in this meta which is being overun by overpowered junglers, yeah let me just play jinx and be lvl 4 while their lee is lvl 6 and dives me like im a joke.

Can we fix this? Make non caitlyn/vayne/twitch adcs playable and nerf the fuck out of junglers/4 man dives bot lane.

Lol, ADC mains are so funny.

Jinx has always had around 53% win rate when she was balanced, her win rate and pickrate going down is a pretty obvious sign here, so thanks for proving me right.

Besides adc win rates barely mean anything because they for the most of part are laning against an adc, which is another no impact champion (unless you play cait or twitch).

Jinx can win games but not because you picked jinx or because jinx did anything, but because your hec/lee/zac/vi stomped the other jungler and helped you a lot in lane (in that case you'd win with even with urgot).

Forgive me if as a Yi main I'm a little unsympathetic to an ADC main whining about 51% win rate Jinx being bad when my main has been one of the worst champions in the entire game for months on end now without a fucking peep from Riot.

Oh, and lolalytics doesn't just compare Jinx to other ADCs. She is ranked plat in a pool considering every champion. For comparison, she is ranked just under Elise overall. Oh, and she does have a 53% win rate when used by the pros. =)

If only you had some other champ assigned to you to make sure you didn't die...

unfortunately not even janna can save you when you get 3 man or 4 man dived by junglers who are 2 levels ahead of you.

I used to be a Jinx main, I am now a Jhin main. I am somewhere between mid bronze and low silver. I am far from great, but I know this style of champ well. Here's how I deal with that:

For Jinx if you can use ur traps to stop a dive then do so. If not hang onto them and when you get dived place the traps on top of the enemy as you run around your tower. Basically you need to recognize when your traps will stop a dive and when you need to wait to use them as a counter offense. You can also just run away and throw down the traps to prevent people from chasing you and run away from your tower closer to your base. This way you won't get surrounded and dived. You need to see them coming to do this but wards will help with that. Basically then you just spam help ping and hope your allies show up before the enemy takes your tower. This can work well if the enemy ends up sandwiched between your tower and your team.

There are also some situations when everyone and their mother is in your lane and you can't do anything about it except die, but there the problem is your team for not reacting to that and letting the enemy roam and pick off your team in outnumbered fights.

Anyways I hope this helps, you can ask if you have any questions.

She's not unplayable, but is weaker then she once was because of the meta. You gotta play safer with her now early on, and she will do fine in mid to late game. I have noticed her lane is much weaker now though; or atleast it feels like it. I haven't found getting dived to be a huge problem. Unless you're talking about when everyone and their mother is in ur lane and they all dive you; but that's mostly you're team's fault for not counter roaming and letting the enemy do what they want.
