About Jinx support

SupërMëwKitty·Jun 7, 2019·2 votes·1,411 views

I have been playing support my match history and item build is correct(always A+ or S-) but i would like some opinions about my item build starting with + and poke enemies with lazer or chompers( also viable but you need to be sure to always aim and hit with the lazord or the chompers for the gold income) i rush it always as 2nd item 3rd cause i have some mana problems but i can hold a little or depends if the enemy team has too much ad if not +

id like to add a + somewhere too

runes i use

Kleptomancy,Magical Footwear,Biscuit Delivery,Cosmic Insight,Font of life,Reviltalize/Overgrowth,Offense,Flex,Defence

sorry but it shows that you have really small game knowledge. you cannot use Zeke's Convergence effectively.

jinx cant really peel. she cannot tank so and buying thornmail is just useless.

going ap is not reliable and will not help your team in any way shape or form. getting iceborn for mana problems is just not the right thing to do. when will you use the sheen? i find it to be a really bad build and jinx support is not a thing and wont help your team at all. with this build thats for sure

Hmm not liking a build and thinking its bad (it is) dosent make me different. Btw. Its not off meta its a troll build

Let me ask you this : would you want a jinx support with this build in your team?

Builds like yours are the main reason people dislike off-meta.

He makes a couple viable points. As the guy who ran HoB Nami mid, I'll play along here, though I'd seem far more crazy than I am if I didn't ask why you want to play the strongest ADC (now that they've FINALLY nerfed Vayne) as a support. :P

There's not really a good way for you personally to benefit from Zeke's, since the frost storm only effects people near you and the whole point of playing a ranged champion is not allowing that to happen. So I can only assume you rush it for the really diverse stats and your ally's fiery bonus.
Knights Vow quite literally kills you, and you only grant half the bonus reduction to your ally since you're a ranged champion. If you want to mess with the enemy's ability to damage your adc, I'd recommend you take something like Locket or Frozen Heart (the aura slows AS) instead, since that seems to be your goal here. I'd take Locket if you're fearing burst damage, and FH if you're fearing a lot of sustained attacks.
I don't really see a point in buying Iceborn and Mallet - I'd just get mallet if you were going with that route, and something like Phantom Dancer to help you personally avoid some damage - the attack speed helps keep the mallet going too) Since Liandry's deals %hp magic damage, that little combo of AS/slows/burn is actually some half-decent secret tech.
Gunblade's not bad, but if you're going to be running Mallet already, you shouldn't really need the active on it, and there's an answer to both the lack of overall damage and your mana issues in Essence Reaver. It'd probably be a much stronger 2nd item overall.
By far the one I really don't get is the Luden's choice - there's next to nothing in it for you, since you don't really build enough AP to warrant having it. At the absolute least, I'd have seen you rushing it for your mana issues, but even then it's just not all that good, even with your build giving you far more AP than a normal jinx would have.

Personally, If you wanted to go with this, I'd have to suggest a decent amount of refinement. :P

maybe...(in no particular order...) item 3508 item 3151 item 3022 item 3110 item 3046 item 3006 (not in that order, again...but those would streamline what you seem to be going for without wasting anything. Reaver gives you CDR and all the mana you'll ever need, you still have the Mallet/Liandry's/AS combo going heavily in your favor, and you have a defensive item in Frozen Heart to slow enemy AS down.

i play for fun,for now its working,and yes i ult near my adc to give it the buff,or my top laner,it always works and the slows are nice i get the gauntlet for the small aoe and cdr,i like to spam lazors when chasing(either they cant catch me or i always hit them when they run away and my team secures the kill) i get either locket or Vow sometimes but i dont really die much always 2 or 3 deatsh per match but i would get either if teamfights go rough Luden+Churrelia with churros for the passive,again my role is to stay back and poke slow root and give team kills i dont really go huge damage,the damage comes from the effect of the spells and items and thats what i like https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-history/NA1/245747847 so far so good

Well, as long as you're playing for fun...I suppose this won't hurt either. :P

Nami - item 3020 item 3146 item 3089 item 3102 item 3135 item 3151 Hail of Blade/Taste of Blood/Ghost Poro/Ultimate Hunter||Triumph/Legend: Bloodline

Pretty much supposed to abuse the hell out of her E in a solo lane and beat the enemy laner into submission via fish-slap. The meme board specialist Laughing Fish would have to see the hilarity this causes for maximum approval of this build. :P

(If you want to play it simply as a more aggressive support page, you swap the secondary to Font of Life/Revitalize and the secondary build below, and it still can work.)

item 3098 item 3504 item 3158 item 3905 item 3030 item 3107 (still a solid amount of AP, but puts more power back into your healing factors while still leaving you with a very aggressive poke that makes your bubble and ult easy to chain.)

If you're going Jinx support you should focus on her strengths, building tank items like Thornmail or Zeke's Convergence reduces your overall usefulness. You might survive longer but your objective as a support should be to benefit your team and doing damage is a great way to do so.

Obviously a meta support who can provide CC, vision, and peel should always be your go-to, but there's nothing wrong with a little off-meta gameplay once in a while.

Here's a fun build you can try:

/ + Domination [Primary] =_ Dark Harvest, Taste of Blood, Eyeball Collection, Ultimate Hunter_ Sorcery [Secondary] = Absolute Focus, Gathering Storm Stat Shards [Tertiary] = Adaptive Force, Adaptive Force, Armor

This build prioritizes heavy AD and CDR, the scaling damage from Dark Harvest coupled with your ult (and it's now heavily lowered cooldown) means you can reliably one-shot people from afar while still doing damage up front. Your DPS will suffer heavily though because you don't have attack speed, but if you're going Jinx support you really shouldn't be trying to 1v1 someone anyway.

i focus more on put slows and roots to the enemy team more than going damage and kite to survive

Yeah, unfortunately in that case Jinx really isn't the best option for that. Supports need to benefit their team through utility and vision, those are two things that Jinx can't consistently do.

What support champions have you tried?

SupërMëwKittyJun 7, 20191 votes

Jinx,GangPlank mostly,almost same build,and for vision Kleptomancy always loots a vision ward ,i can buy some too since i have good income

SupërMëwKittyJun 7, 20191 votes

also Zeke provides my adc with some damage,and i can go tanky ,the cdr reachs 45% and i can spam lazors,also the rocket is 42 second cooldwon with my build so zeke is active whenever we teamfight,then cast chompers,the ice from gauntlet++mallet prevents enemies from escaping i can provide replays showing how it works,your build is okay but too much ad for my like,Jinx benefits a lot from mana and some on hit effects

I would suggest if you want to do damage support trying out lux or brand. You have so much more fun on then and can properly use the support items with them. Jinx accels in damage roles because she has the output. Supports want to set up or enable the team. Whether it means catching, empowering or chipping away at the enemy without being in danger. Support Jinx damage falls off so fast but if you Max w or e the duration of the cc isn’t long enough to even matter.

I feel like if you played support Ashe instead it would work better. She has multiple slows built into her kit, volley is really reliable poke and helpful for retreating, hawkshot is a generally useful tool, and her ultimate is great.

If you're dead set on playing Jinx I would focus more on building some AD items rather than so much AP. If you want the Frozen Mallet you could consider Runaan's with it to apply slows to 3 targets per auto. Building some AD makes you a pretty legitimate threat the later the game goes and doesn't make you so reliant on your W for damage.
