Jinx or Kha'zix...?

Greetings, League of Legends community!

As the title of this thread may suggest, I have encountered yet another predicament regarding the selection of a champion within the game, and have made the decision of once again turning to the veterans of League to assist me in my efforts and guide me in exactly what I should do in my situation.

Here is my current dilemma:

I have attained a sufficient IP supply (6300 points) to purchase any champion within the game, and as of now, two have caught my eye in particular; Jinx and Kha'zix, for the reasons of their damage output, ranged abilities, popularity, and overall awesomeness.

However, I only have enough Influence Points to purchase one, and am curious as to who you believe I should side with.

Any advice...?

Kha has: Capacity for stellar plays (leap resets), stupidly large burst and interesting mechincs (evolve choices). If you want to jump out of nowhere and 100-0 someone and get away unscathed, while also having the option to stealth, go for kha.

Jinx has: Hypercarry status, easy lane bully capacity, great skillshot, global ult specifically meant to get a kill. The passive doesn't come into play as much as you would think, but still allows for some easy multi-kills.

Personally I would say Jinx because I'm a sucker for global ult snipes, but kha feels like more of a challenge most of the time. Honestly I think it would come down to are you more comfortable bot lane or roaming? Jinx or kha respectively. Happy buying!

Again, as I have asked everyone else, what is your main preference? Bursty assassions who can roam really well, or a ranged dps champion who can split push and have strong duels? Both champions have their strong points.

Since I main ADC, I would say get Jinx. She is one of the most popular adcs right now, aside from Lucian and Caitlyn, and her pushing potention is almost unmatched. She can destroy a lane in just three hits just from her Rockets. She also has crazy team presence due to all of large aoe damage or sustained single target damage. And that ult, the feeling you get when you snipe someone from across the map...

EDIT: Kha'Zix also has strong duels. I just meant in the bot lane with other adcs :P

Both of you, I massively appreciate the feedback, and will most definitely take your advice into thorough consideration.

I will proceed to briefly brush through once again the defining mechanics of Kha'zix and Jinx, and will make my purchases shortly.

Well, I would just like to announce that an estimated hour ago, I purchased Jinx, and have played two rounds with her (one Player v. Bots and one Player v. Player), and had an extremely fun time.

Overall, she is an extremely unpredictable and wild character, and displays a disturbing yet somewhat attractive personality through her various quotes and actions.

I enjoy the insane speed buff she is granted after killing/assisting an enemy turret or champion, alongside her crazy damage, and will most definitely be playing her in the future, although I have not yet decided if she will act as my main permanently.

Nevertheless, thank you for helping me, guys, and I hope to meet you all on the Fields of Justice soon!
