What if Lucian and Jinx swapped passives?

Just a thought, but what if they did? Lucian would no longer have his near gaurenteed trade winning passive but have movement speed and attack speed buffs on kills, assists, and objective takes. Jinx would no longer have movement speed and attack speed buffs on kills, assists, and objective takes, but have extra autos every time she used an ability, like her Q (double rockets too OP?).

Honestly I can see it working to an extent. Might still favor Lucian, but at least pre-passive you have more of a chance at winning a trade against him.

Jinx doesnt have the kit for lucian's passive. You don't just use your abilities like that, and her Q doesn't cost mana to change. I don't think her getting 2 autos per auto forever would be great either. Sounds disgustingly broken.

Really sounds like you've never played jinx.

Ummm, Runaan powered Rockets. All I'm gonna say here...

I don't understand the argument you're making.

Are you comparing lucian's passive to runaans?

The rockets still do less damage because it's from runaans, but more so than other adcs because they're still rockets. Its basically just empowered runaans lol. She has aoe rocket crits later into the game, but she isn't a very strong laner. She has good waveclear with them, but it wouldn't be the disgusting double shot AOE single target auto destroyer with lucian's passive lol.

Like just imagine if lucian's autos, shot twice....forever, and exploded XD LOL

you can't outtrade that or prevent being shoved under your tower immediately level 1 lol.

I'm saying Jinx's damage with 3 pow pow rockets is scary enough, I don't wanna see 6 of them.

I meant on change, not each auto unless you change form every time which negates any attack speed buff your minigun gains. Thought that would have been obvious....

That would be even more broken, because it costs mana to auto with rockets, it doesnt cost mana to change XD

The suggestion is literally better phrased like this.

"Should we double Jinx's damage"

It would feel even worse too, because you want to go between the 2 forms for different reasons, just switching mindlessly isnt how she is played
