Besides lack of practicality, and being absurdedly broken, Yes

Don't forget If you watch the thing.

IF JINX rides it. BOOM=entire summoners bace.

*Semi Edit

You could make it a giant aoe targeted. Like a ziggs ult?

But take a lot more time to like "charge" it.

If Jinx riding her rocket is canon lore-wise there is literally no reason for that not to be implemented in game. I will legitimately take a base AS nerf on her if that is what she needs to prevent her from becoming OP from the ult buffs.

Her base AS is already bad, and honestly this buff would do close to nothing to help jinx actually become good.

Awesomedude8888Mar 22, 20172 votes

Then don't nerf her base AS when implementing this buff?

ShadowParkerMar 22, 20173 votes

I feel like it would though.

It would give her insane mobility. Why even launch it to kill someone when you can just ride it to get somewhere else on the map FAST.

The thing is why would an ADC WANT to dive in the middle of a fight. The only ADC that does that is Quinn.

Serika ZeroMar 22, 20175 votes

if you can hop on it, you can hop off it :) so, you'll just use it to get quicker to the fight :)

and only end up in the middle of it if you are either bad or got huge lag

Vayne & Graves

Troll for TrumpMar 22, 20171 votes

I knew people were going to say that.

No, Vayne has short range but doesn't want to be super close to you. Graves has short range, but he won't be in the middle of the teamfight.

None of them should be.

Quinn shouldn't be either, but because of the way she's built(less ADC more assassin-y) she just ends up getting close and then getting blown up.

In addition, Jinx has no mobility or reliable escape, and is squishy. Go in on the rocket...and? Die?

Vayne would stealth Tumble out. Graves can quickdraw or ult. Quinn can E(but she usually has to use that in the beginning to proc harrier and get out of her ult; without the vault, she's stuck in the teamfight and gets blown up).

Rocnation98Mar 23, 20171 votes

Vayne has a short auto attack range, she doesnt have any poke either. Graves is literally rewarded for dashing into enemy champs AND he builds like an assassin like quinn.

Troll for TrumpMar 23, 20171 votes

They need to go in to do their dmg, but they still have the traditional kiting/orbwalking traits of all ADCs.

All ADCs are best suited to be at a certain range(max attack range) while they're dpsing. Graves and Vayne just have shorter range.

Graves is supposed to get close to do the most burst, and then get out as an ADC like Quinn. He wasn't meant for sustained DPS.

You actually think that kind of mechanic is warranted on a squishy adc.... top kek

Just make it so that if she's still on it when it collides with an enemy, she takes damage too.

You think base AS nerf is gonna weaken her enough? No, it's gotta be -5 AD.

The -5 AD!

She must be friends with gravity and friction cos boyyyyyy are they holding her in place.

This makes sense, but you need to be able to reactivate it to get off. Otherwise you end up the the enemies base, fountain, or in the dead center of their entire team

HeresyHorusMar 22, 20175 votes

nah, the only buff she needs is a buff to her cup size.

HeresyHorusMar 23, 20172 votes

its for balance reasons.

shes holding all her stuff on her back so she needs a frontal weight to prevent her from falling on her back cuz her thighs are so thin ( need a buff there too ? ).

The DeckownerMar 23, 20175 votes

thought it would be a breast joke

Friendly RamMar 22, 20174 votes

the scary part would be how excited she would be after hopping off the rocket.

Sugar MommaMar 22, 20174 votes

This would be very strange to see when she fires it at close range.

BluePenguin9Mar 22, 20173 votes

I love this idea! Riding a rocket like her "Get Jinxed" video would be a massive tip of the hat to her lore.

I can see a version of this that could be viable and not OP AF.

Make initial cast much longer, like Cait Ult duration. Jinx hops on it and goes for a ride. Second cast, Jinx dismounts the rocket and rocket continues as current design exploding on first target hit. She gets knocked off and rocket explodes if she takes any dmg while riding it or during cast. Jinx also takes full dmg from her own ult.

Pros: -Use as Semi Global Taliyah ult to either join a fight or escape when you have enough warning.

Cons: -Increase cast makes landing skill shot to secure kills very easy to dodge. -Punishing for interrupting her cast or dmg while in transit

Gameplay scenarios

Fantasy best case: Enemy team is doing Baron on a ward. Your team is looking for an engage. Right as they engage you channel ult from a screen away. Ride the rocket and jump off at the back line of your team. Rocket continues and secures a kill, you enter the fight with passive excited buff and your team cleans up the fight.

Successful Escape: pushing botlane to enemy turret, you catch the enemy jg and mid lane coming down river on a ward, immediate channel ult from the side bush and ride the rocket back towards your base.

Blunders: Team engaging at baron you look to join riding on your rocket from the back line. Enemy EZ shoots ult and blows up the rocket in your face leaving you 1/2 HP or so and fully negating your ult.

Escaping the gank botlane. Enemy jg is graves sees/suspects you are going to channel ult from the bush uses hit ult to dmg and knock you off rocket and chunking you for more than 1/2 hp.

Mig89Mar 22, 20172 votes

What if, when launched, she automatically hops on and hitting R again has her jump off. You could spawn, launch your ult into an enemys face, then hop off. If she takes and dmg she gets thrown off. If she sits on it until it hits someone she takes damage. Seems legit to me
