Guide to Countering Jinx as Vayne

Tips for Playing as Vayne against Jinx

Don't go in first to a large teamfight. Wait for your teammates to initiate.

Condemn can be used to both pin targets to walls to ensure a kill, or to escape a pursuer.

Advice to Win Against Jinx

Jinx's ultimate does less damage the closer you are to her.

Jinx's minigun takes time to ramp up. If you see her poking with rockets try to jump on her and burst her down.

Jinx's snare grenades have a long cooldown and are her primary means of protecting herself. If she misses with them she will have a hard time escaping if engaged upon.
