Tips for Playing as Illaoi with Jinx

Vessel

Tentacles are an immense source of power. Don't fight without them.

Spirits inherit their target's current health. If making a

is your goal, try whittling your opponent's health down a bit first to make killing the spirit easier.

Leap of Faith is best used to follow-up a strong engage or when being engaged upon. Be careful about being the first one into a fight.

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.

Is Illaoi better when played alongside Jinx?

There is no ideal companion for Illaoi that will always be her top synergy. However, overall, Jinx is a relatively poor ally for Illaoi. By being on the same team as Illaoi, she drops their win rate by -1.4% to 48.2%. This signals that there is a negative bond between Illaoi and Jinx that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Jinx has a greater difficulty than Illaoi. That means you need to be very careful when enlisting Jinx allies to play with, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing together, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. When paired, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by aligning Illaoi and Jinx together, you probably will not be providing your other allies enough support. We recommend you have other champs on your team that nullifies this gap in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of the skill of your Jinx ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
