Guide to Synergizing Jinx and Garen

Tips for Playing as Jinx with Garen

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 Garen Will Play

Garen is only constrained by cooldowns, making items such as Black Cleaver very effective for him.

Garen's regeneration greatly increases if he can avoid receiving damage for several seconds.

Judgment deals maximum damage when only hitting a single target. For effective trading, try to position such that only the enemy champion is hit.

How to Play with Garen as Jinx in LoL

The Jinx Garen synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Garen, 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 very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Garen. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Garen helps Jinx perform worse in competitive LoL games. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Jinx is an ally to Garen, she observes a little decrease in her complete damage dealt. This change could demonstrate that Garen does not help protection for her to dish out more damage or that his participation also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Jinx is played together with Garen on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Garen.

Moreover, when Jinx plays with Garen on the same side, she on average takes a little more damage than when she plays alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Garen does a poor job of covering Jinx during team fights.

Is Jinx better when played alongside Garen?

There is no perfect companion for Jinx that will 100% of the time be her best ally. Yet, overall, Garen is a relatively poor teammate for Jinx. By playing on the same side as Jinx, he decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 48.7%. This signals that there is a negative strategic relationship between Jinx and Garen that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Garen has a lower difficulty than Jinx. That means Jinx players don't need to be very careful when finding Garen teammates to play with, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Playing alongside, Jinx players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. When paired, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by grouping Jinx and Garen together, you will not be giving your team a lot of AP. Make sure to include other champs on your team that offsets this relative gap in their potential.

Regardless of the ability of your Garen ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
