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.
While ganking, consider aiming Dredge Line at nearby terrain and following it up with Riptide for a higher hit rate.
Riptide has a delayed blast timing on activation - you can use this while running away or when enemies are incoming to serve as a deterrent.

When Jinx plays on the same team as Nautilus, she gets a marginal improvement in her total damage dealt. This change may signal that Nautilus provides protection for her to deal more damage or that his participation also helps extend the match's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Nautilus.
Moreover, when Jinx plays with Nautilus on the same side, she on average takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Nautilus does a decent job of protecting Jinx in team fights.

By being on the same side as Jinx, he decreases their win rate by -1.5% to 48.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Jinx and Nautilus that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.
