Guide to Synergizing Jinx and Sona

Tips for Playing as Jinx with Sona

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 Sona Will Play

Make sure to tag your allies while Sona's auras are active, but avoid getting caught out by enemies.

Save Crescendo for the game-altering moment.

Well-timed uses of Aria of Perseverance will grant you maximum survivability.

Is Jinx better when played alongside Sona?

There is no perfect synergy for Jinx that will no matter what be her ideal synergy. Yet, overall, Sona is a very typical companion for Jinx. By being on the same side as Jinx, she improves their win rate by 0.2% to 50.0%. This demonstrates that there is only a small bond between Jinx and Sona that allows them to perform at the top of their game together than alone.

Sona has a lower difficulty than Jinx. That means you don't need to be cautious when enlisting Sona allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to cooperate well with you.

When playing on the same side, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s capability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

In contrast, by grouping Jinx and Sona together, you will not be providing your team enough protection for burst damage. We recommend you have other champs on your team that fills this gap in their kit.

Regardless of your Sona ally's ability, you should focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
