Tips for Playing as Jinx with Skarner
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 Understand How Skarner Will Play
Impale is extremely powerful when you use it to position an enemy so your allies can attack them.
Basic attacks reduce the cooldown of Crystal Slash. Use them as often as possible for maximum damage.
Capturing Crystal Spires before attempting neutral objectives or team fights around them improves Skarner's performance in said fights dramatically.
