Guide to Countering Evelynn as Jinx

Tips for Playing as Jinx against Evelynn

Rockets aren't always the best choice! Jinx's minigun is incredibly powerful when fully ramped up. Switch to it whenever an enemy champion gets too close.

Jinx's rockets deal full damage to all enemies in the explosion. Use them on minions in lane to hit nearby enemy champions without drawing minion aggro.

When a fight starts try to stay on the edge of fray by poking with rockets and Zap!. Do not run in and unload with the minigun until you feel it is safe.

Advice to Win Against Evelynn

Purchasing Vision Wards can help you detect Evelynn's location in order to prepare for her ambushes.

A large share of Evelynn's threat is in her charm, 'Allure.' Protect allies marked with 'Allure' or, if you are marked, make sure allies are between you and where Evelynn may attack from.

If you suspect Evelynn is about to ambush one of your teammates, let them know by pinging the minimap and typing in chat.
