Playing Jinx
Jinx is played at long range, juggling between her rocket launcher and her minigun to maximize damage.
- Level 1: Choose Q - Switcheroo! to swap between your two weapons to start poking your opponent when he tries to finish off a minion using the rocket launcher's increased range.
- Level 2: Go for W - Zap! if you have the advantage over your opponents to threaten them from afar. If, on the contrary, you are in difficulty, take E - Flame Chompers! to block all opponent aggression.
Jinx's strength lies in his Q - Switcheroo! The hardest thing is to properly juggle between Fishbones, the rocket launcher andPow-Pow, the minigun. The minigun allows you to increase your attack speed with each shot for 2.5s. This effect can be cumulated up to 3 times, for a maximum bonus of +70% attack speed. On the other hand, the rocket launcher increases the range and damage of basic attacks by 110% and adds an area damage effect.
