Guide to Synergizing Aphelios and Jinx

Tips for Playing as Aphelios with Jinx

Each of Aphelios' weapons have different strengths, so try to find the right situation for your current weapons.

Advice to Understand How Jinx Will Play

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.

Working cooperatively, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by aligning Aphelios and Jinx together, you may not be granting your other allies much engage. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that offsets this gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Jinx ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
