Guide to Synergizing Kayn and Jinx

Tips for Playing as Kayn with Jinx

Remember that nearby enemies can see which wall you're in.

Look at the line-up of both your team and the enemy's team when picking your form.

Advice to Understand How Jinx Will Play

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.

How to Play with Jinx as Kayn in LoL

Overall, Kayn sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Jinx. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Jinx helps Kayn perform worse in competitive League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Kayn tries to synergize with Jinx, he observes a small decrease in his total damage output. This change could indicate that Jinx does not support by providing cover for him to deal more damage or that her support also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Kayn is played alongside Jinx on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Jinx.

Additionally, when Kayn plays with Jinx on the same side, he typically takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Jinx does a decent job of covering Kayn during team fights.

Is Kayn better when played alongside Jinx?

There is no top champion pairing for Kayn that will always be his ideal synergy. Yet, overall, Jinx is a very typical teammate for Kayn. By playing on the same side as Kayn, she drops their win rate by -0.6% to 48.6%. This shows that there is not really a strong bond between Kayn and Jinx that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

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

When playing cooperatively, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champions should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Although, by aligning Kayn and Jinx together, you may not be giving your other teammates much magic damage. We recommend you have other champions on your team that fills this hole in this pairing's potential.

Regardless of your Jinx ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
