As much as Jinx is about her guns, I don't feel like she would deliberately shoot someone.

I feel like the only time Jinx would kill someone would be: a) indirectly by blowing something up and killing people as collateral damage. b) in a spray of rapidly, randomly fired bullets as she flees police. c) indirectly by some elaborate means (i.e. suspending someone over a vat of boiling oil and slowly lowering them as Caitlyn & Vi frantically try to locate and save them).

I feel like even if she was in a one on one fight with Vi, she'd just mess with her. Batter her with a barrage of concussive explosions or ding up her armor/gauntlets with her minigun.

I remember a Q&A when she first came out and one of the Rioters commented "she wouldn't deliberately shoot some random guy, but if that random guy was sitting on a pile of awesome fireworks then he may get a couple bullets in him.....and then blow up......violently......."

Jinx "Guns don't kill people. I mean, until you shoot them. Then they kill everything!"

Jokes aside I think you are actually right in that Jinx doesn't seem to be interested in killing people. Its just that she loves making chaos and causing destruction,which likely leads to some "collateral damage"

Come on, guys. It's right there in her selection quote.

"Rules are made to be broken. Like buildings. Or people!"

She's a violent psychopath. The lives and property of others exist only for her own amusement. And destruction is apparently what amuses her the most. The example of 'oh she would only kill someone if the result was funny' does not make her Chaotic Neutral. Chaotic Neutral is an otherwise normal person who just doesn't want authority figures butting into their business. She's Chaotic Evil, no questions asked.

Honestly, I think it's yet to be seen. The door has been left open on Jinx for such a long time that players have imprinted and created their own identity for her. Whether Jinx Riot wants to make Jinx a psycho killer or a cute troubled young girl is yet to be seen. But I think a lot of the fanbase will be upset if she ends up being the first since most of them identify her as being troubled.

I'm an old-school DnD:er.

Baldur's Gate II is my all-time favourite game.

Jinx is Chaotic Evil. Your waifu is a rotten egg. Deal with it.

Also, it saddens me that a lot of you get the Chaotic part semi-wrong. it isn't about being entirely random, it is about being the opposite of Lawful. Lawful characters often have codes of honour, they keep their promises etc. That is why a Paladin cannot be either Neutral Good or Chaotic Good - they **have ** to be Lawful good.

Characters who are Chaotic may simple reject the law of man (Druids, Barbarians and other "wild folk"), for example.

I think she's like this: -The "fun" people she wouldn't want to kill but she goes all out because she knows they won't die easily anyways,so she attempts to kill them A.K.A. Vi and such -She doesn't care about the weak and boring so she doesn't even care about killing them,so she won't kill them as the main focus I believe she is crazy, I don't believe she has any good in her heart, I don't believe she can be saved in any way. She's a dangerous psychopath and I just want the OP to know this because I'm feeling like you're starting to crush on her or something

Actually, if you look at the piltover people at the new champion comic you will probably know why she finds amusing blowing people up. Piltover is a state that keep zaun weak at a very tight leash.

Maybe there was a reason she started to do this, but just forgot it in the excitement like all young kids do when they have a cause.

Jinx's main motivation is utter destruction. If people die, then so be it, she's not against that. But it's not her goal to kill people.

You have a point, but gameplay is gameplay after all
