About the "Get Jinxed" video...

judgebeanhead·Nov 29, 2015·5 votes·4,218 views

Is it just me, or does anybody else get the feeling that Jinx was supposed to be shooting people in that video?

She's supposed to be an absurdly chaos-seeking deviant who is so thrilled by death and destruction caused only for their own sake---essentially the Joker of the League universe---and yet she spends her time shooting up a city full of robots? Why isn't she off destroying things that actually matter and killing actual people? Heck, why is there a city full of robots in the first place?

Obviously, showing her slaughtering thousands of innocent people would be out place in the aesthetic of League to say the least (and pretty distasteful if I'm being honest. I mean, even DC's Joker probably wouldn't pull something like this.), but I'm just curious if anybody else saw it.

Because it was a dream of Jinx.

She doesnt enjoy killing people for random reasons: She likes doing fun things, even if people dies in the process.

Destroying super fighting robots is more fun than killing people.

I like reading the small print on the Jinx WANTED poster - because that, coupled with the video all being a dream, makes me rather curious as to what Jinx gets up to. (Note: I am not an expert on sekrit Jinx info - my knowledge is the same as any other player's on this subject.)

I wonder what Jinx gets up to myself, Bioluminescence. But some things the world may NEVER know.

Good point. On the other hand, if Jinx did commit three murders, there's really no saying just who the victims were, nor whether Jinx actually does kill people "for random reasons". Could be a Piltovian who really got onto her case, or a different criminal who got on her bad side somehow. The extremely high body count during the two Bilgewater arcs leads me to believe that anything is possible.

... No, I mean... The small print. The very last piece of print on the poster. That's why I think it's interesting when viewed in concert with the music video. :D [slayer-jinx-wink]

For others: it reads,

#"Forging of Official Wanted Posters"

... I see. Still, she's obviously a big deal to Caitlyn, and was hyped up during her pre-release (like this video) to be some sort of threat to Piltover. Certainly she doesn't just "run wild with the other lost children of Zaun". Ekko

To be honest, in my eyes she's mostly a "petty" criminal, or at least one that doesn't prefer to actually kill people. Destroying objects, property and machinery sounds right up her alley, really. If she dreams it - and Illaoi acknowledges her chasing her passion - then some part of her bio that we know of must be the real deal.

The last line of the poster always made me think if it was true or not.

Pretty sure Joker would do something exactly like that. Only to get Batman to come. Or he might hold them hostage, shooting a few people randomly until Batsy arrives because...why not? The reason it wasn't people, is because we're kinda in a war right now. Something like it. I'm fairly certain that Jinx (being the definition of Terrorist) destroying buildings and shooting random people wouldn't go well for a lot of American families victim to 9/11/01, and League would have most likely been ousted from the US because of that. Companies have been shut down for less. Love Jinx, though~![slayer-jinx-wink]

Do you know how many people the Joker has killed? Joker doesn't, but he thanks Bats for keeping count at one point.

Also.......shut down for things like.........what?

I don't really know everything on how the U.S. fucks things up, but they're pretty temperamental about stupid shit. Especially if something in it can have any potential of doing anything with things it doesn't like. Religion, food, education, all these things are heavily judged here. Kinda makes me angry.

It was a dream but....I kinda like this.

At one point she latches a grenade onto a robot's face and it explodes.

ESRB does give LoL a T rating.

Not sure you can keep it that way if she's slaughtering people like that.

Overall jinx is more about causing chaos and destruction. That people die in that is just a side effect. And since robots explode I guess that fighting robots would be more exciting for jinx than fighting humans.
