Tips for Playing as Jinx with Varus
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 Varus Will Play
Try to take advantage of Piercing Arrow's very long range to snipe at enemy champions before a fight or as they're trying to flee.
An early point in Blighted Quiver helps harass enemy champions and get killing blows on minions.
During short range fights it's sometimes best to fire Piercing Arrow quickly, rather than charging it to full power.
Jinx Varus Synergy Stats
How to Play with Varus as Jinx in LoL
The Jinx Varus synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Varus, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Jinx sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Varus. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Varus helps Jinx perform not as well in competitive League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Jinx plays on the same team as Varus, she sees a small decrease in her complete damage dealt. This difference may demonstrate that Varus does not provide cover for her to deal more damage or that his support also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Jinx is played alongside Varus on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Varus.
Additionally, when Jinx plays with Varus on the same team, she usually takes a little more damage than when she fights alone. Taking more damage could mean that Varus does a poor job of protecting Jinx in teamfights.

Is Jinx better when played alongside Varus?
There is no top champion pairing for Jinx that will always be her ideal teammate. Yet, overall, Varus is a very typical companion for Jinx. By locking into the same side as Jinx, he increases their win rate by 0.1% to 49.9%. This signals that there is a weak strategic relationship between Jinx and Varus that allows them to perform better together than without each other.
Varus has a much lower diffuclty than Jinx. That means you don't need to be cautious when arranging Varus allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a much lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.
Playing on the same side, Jinx players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champs can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.
In contrast, by aligning Jinx and Varus together, you probably will not be granting your other allies a lot of engage. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative gap in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of the ability of your Varus ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
