Guide to Synergizing Jinx and Nocturne

Tips for Playing as Jinx with Nocturne

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 Nocturne Will Play

Use Shroud of Darkness in tandem with Paranoia's dash. Your opponents may panic and waste a critical disable on your spell shield.

Using Paranoia at a critical moment is well worth it even if you cannot use the dash.

Duskbringer isn't only an offensive ability. It can be used to close distance out of combat or escape from certain death.

Is Jinx better when played alongside Nocturne?

There is no one best champion pairing for Jinx that will always be her #1 teammate. Yet, overall, Nocturne is a decent companion for Jinx. By locking into the same side as Jinx, he improves their win rate by 1.2% to 51.0%. This clearly indicates that there is a somewhat important strategic relationship between Jinx and Nocturne that allows them to perform stronger together than alone.

Nocturne has a lower difficulty than Jinx. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Nocturne comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. When paired, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by bringing Jinx and Nocturne together, you may not be giving your other teammates a great deal of support. Make sure to bring other champions on your team that neutralizes this hole in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of your Nocturne ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
