Ideas for improving Jinx
As an avid Jinx user, I am frustrated to see how much she is struggling in modern LoL, where everything is leaning towards mobility and burst. Two simple improvements that I could see bringing her back into the more usable range of champions would be as follows:
- Allow her to cast while moving, so no stopping to fire Z (Zap!) or FC (Flame Chompers). Stopping to fire the SMDR (Super Mega Death Rocket) is still understandable, just off the shear scale of the missile. Why do I want this? Because with her lack of any kind of hyper mobile abilities, this would just allow her to be slightly more tenacious while not breaking her in regards to the game balance. Also, have you ever looked at any lore for her? Her current play style is literally the exact opposite of the personality the writers have given her.
- This one is a bit more random but, and this based on her little bit of story, having it to where firing Z will cause the FCs to explode early, allowing more synergistic damage between her abilities, as we have seen from many old and new champions already.
There are a few more ideas that I have, but they are mostly fanciful, such as allowing Jinx to recast her ult, causing her to ride SMDR as it flies at the enemy. If you say this is ridiculous, you have clearly never seen her music video. Wouldn't even break the game, as express mailing yourself to the enemy could very easily be fatal.
