Respect th' foe's reliable threat

Track th' cooldown and range o' th' trick that starts their safest trade. Do nay treat this chart as a statistical counter claim.

Yer course

Use th' course ye prepared

Treat Vex as one part o' th' sea chart state. Their Jungler, nigh th' ship waves and which teammates can move determine whether th' same trade or rotation be seaworthy.

Trick reminders

Jinx reminders

  • Rockets aren't always th' best choice! Jinx's minigun be incredibly powerful when fully ramped up. Switch to it whenever an foe champion gets too belay.
  • Jinx's rockets deal full damage to all enemies in th' explosion. Use them on minions in course to hit nigh th' ship foe champions without drawing minion aggro.
  • When a fight starts try to stay on th' edge o' fray by poking wit' rockets and Zap!. Do nay run in and unload wit' th' minigun until ye feel it be seaworthy.

Adapt th' course

What to do when th' battle changes

Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.

Even course

1
Course

Clash th' wave without draining all o' yer mana through rockets. Swap to Pow-Pow when a target can be attacked safely fer several hits.

2
Prizes

Move wit' crewmates rather than entering river alone. Yer first aboard takedown or structure can change an ordinary fight into Jinx's strongest moment.

3
Fights

Preserve distance and attack th' closest reachable threat. A glamorous back aboard-line target be nay worth crossing foe control to reach.

Pings, movement and prizes

Jinx Bot sea chart course

Protect income and coordinate wit' Support. Yer movement should follow th' wave, while yer pings make target choice and peril clear th' deck afore th' fight begins.

Ahead

Carry th' lead into th' next aboard seaworthy fight

Ping
Use Target on th' reachable foe, Peril when Support or Jungle be too far across th' waters astern, and On Me Way after th' wave be secured.
Arrr, farm or rotate
Finish th' wave, recall on th' gear timing and rotate wit' protection. Do nay cross river alone to save a few seconds.
Prize
Attack from th' seaworthy side o' th' prize and keep damaging th' nearest reachable threat. Preserving th' shutdown matters more booty than chasing.

Ping
Use Target to align wit' Support, Foe Lost overboard when either Bot foe leaves and Peril if an engage begins outside yer seaworthy range.
Arrr, farm or rotate
Rotate after th' wave or when th' prize fight be immediate and reachable. Communicate if staying fer th' wave be th' safer call.
Prize
Enter astern o' vision and allied control. Keep a course astern from th' foe engage afore starting sustained damage.
Behind

Shorten exposure and recover promised doubloons

Ping
Use Retreat afore Support or Jungle forces a fight ye cannae damage, and Foe Lost overboard as soon as th' taking th' victory Bot course leaves.
Arrr, farm or rotate
Avoid being first aboard into river. Move wit' Support after th' seaworthy wave, or trade an unsafe prize fer protected farm.
Prize
Stand beside peel and attack whoever enters seaworthy range. Do nay cross foe control to reach th' opposing carry.
Prize setup

Arrr, four calls, in order

    Secure th' wave

    Finish seaworthy farm and communicate th' recall or move afore th' prize setup begins.

  2. 2

  3. 3
    Arrr, set attack space

    Keep an exit course and identify th' nearest target ye can damage without crossing foe control.

  4. 4
    Arrr, stay alive

    Continue useful damage without chasing astern from th' prize or donating a shutdown.

Later prizes: Repeat th' same process 'round later major prizes: handle nigh th' ship income, communicate th' course, enter through vision and agree on th' fight afore committing.
