Guide to Synergizing Nasus and Jinx

Tips for Playing as Nasus with Jinx

Paying attention to last hitting with Siphoning Strike will have a large impact at the end of a game.

If you're solo, Spirit Fire is a great way to farm a lane. It can be bad if you're in a lane with 2 and you push too far. Find the right balance between Siphoning Strike last hits and AoE farming.

If you have low defenses, people will focus you down even during your ultimate. Try buying some survivability items even in your DPS builds.

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 Nasus in LoL

The Nasus Jinx synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Jinx, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Nasus 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 drop shows that Jinx helps Nasus perform worse in competitive League matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Nasus tries to synergize with Jinx, he gets a barely noticable drop in his full damage output. This may indicate that Jinx doesn't help protection for him to deal more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Nasus is played alongside Jinx on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Jinx. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Jinx.

Moreover, when Nasus plays with Jinx on the same team, he often receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Jinx does a decent job of protecting Nasus during teamfights.

Is Nasus better when played alongside Jinx?

There is no top ally for Nasus that will 100% of the time be his ideal ally. Yet, overall, Jinx is a very typical teammate for Nasus. By being on the same side as Nasus, she lowers their win rate by -0.8% to 49.5%. This proves that there is a weak strategic relationship between Nasus and Jinx that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Jinx has a lower difficulty than Nasus. That means Nasus players don't need to be cautious when lining up Jinx comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Fighting together, Nasus players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. Combined, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Although, by grouping Nasus and Jinx together, you probably will not be providing your other teammates a lot of crowd control. Plan to have other champions on your team that offsets this disparity in their playstyle.

Regardless of the skill of your Jinx ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
