Whats up ppl, OverYourLeague here, i've been hearing a bunch of poop about how good Jinx is, how she's better than Draven, Ashe, Vayne, and Cait. In my opinion, i think shes not that good,in order for her to actually carry, she would need to be snowaballed so hard, basicly spoon fed, unlike the ADC's i listed above, they dont need those early kills. What do you ppl think?
She's easily the most broken champ to be released in recent memory. A q that can build great attack speed or give you more range than Cait with AOE crits. What's truly broken is her w however. At level 3 with a bf, it can do up to 350 dmg, which gives you a ridiculous advantage in lane. Combine that with a root, and an executing ult, you have one of the best adc's riots ever churned out. While she is vulnerable to ganks more then most, her pure damage output makes her more then worth it.
i'm with you. she's not nearly as OP as vayne was when she was released, that long range, shorter cd tumble... she's more OP than the others of late have been. but that's okay. i'm okay with them releasing the champs at least slightly over the top. that will get people to pick them up and not get lucian'd or yorick'd... it takes people time to learn the new playstyle and getting more play helps both the poor shlubs playing against the champs and those playing them.
i don't think jinx is OP. def looks like fun though
I don't know about "spoon fed." I have been crushed during lane as Jinx before, and come back later (after some careful farming and teamfights) and gotten a pentakill, plus won every team fight with a multi-kill. I've had other games where me and my support simply survive lane phase with around even to slightly less CS (maybe even some deaths a piece), and then later do really well in team fights.
I don't think she needs to be spoon-fed necessarily, but the fact that she really needs a chunk of meat to guard her and good positioning (else she gets blown up pretty quickly) I think makes her not as strong as everyone thinks she is. She's a glorified Kog late game; protect her and she can dart around outside of the fight and kill things pretty effectively, and has good clean up to boot. She might have a bit of an easier lane phase than Kog, but not necessarily EASY.
Jinx hasn't been out a week, so it's hard to get a good feel. In my opinion, she's not overpowered. Her only escape is easily avoidable, especially if you have a gap closer. Once someone gets on her, her best chance is to fight.
I will say she's strong. Her ult is very nice if your map is warded, especially against early attempts at Dragon. She can snipe a Champ kill quite easily, or a double in some cases. Same for Baron. Ashe is similar, but I'm pretty sure Jinx has more AoE and is AD based, not AP. She can also damage Minions and Monsters in the blast.
Jinx is not the most balenced champion released but Her W is her main source damage and the fact that she has some burst with her E then W then ult is really the only way to be op her base damage could be reduced a bit from the passive of her q but She is not that op atm.
IS OP TO THE MAX
