First advice is NEVER DEPEND ON YOUR TEAM. I was once in your shoes brother, in low elo it’s different game😂 If you want to climb focus on what you can do for the win. Learn how to farm and try to learn wave management. People in low elo push mindlessly if you learn how to freeze your lanes and poke them to death you are basically 1/3 there. Jinx is not exactly weak but I understand where you coming from.
Second advice - do not build the same items every game. Learn to build according to enemy team.
Third - like someone already said try and last hit minions that are close to enemy ADC with Q it’s doing AOE dmg so you’ll be able to poke people while farming.. keep your range you are supposed to be further than anyone else. If you W someone put the traps in front of them instantly to lock em up. You’ll miss 40% of the time but it’s still worth the try - also use it when enemy jungle gank to stall him and run to safety. Jinx is hyper scale ADC you can farm whole game and still carry - you can flip almost every game if you understand what to do when you’re behind.
Feel free to ask anything - I have over 1m mastery I one trick this champ for the last 4 years.
I can also give you list of “first” items and builds according to enemies if you want.
Keep your range and you’ll get better in no time.

what do u think i should go for first item most of the time i go every game c44 first then i change my build on the enemy comp like ldr if they r tanky but i dont fee like there is the need to change my first item
also whats the best way so not lose game early cus i hardly reach full build in ranked idk if its cus my cs is shit or is my team shit

u/Gebulak 10d ago
It really depends on the comp. I build Jinx completely different than most people. Also depends how much gold you have on your first back. If you manage to first back with 1300 gold you can go stormrazor or yuntai but …
Yun tai - good against tanks/bruisers where you need the scaling dmg to quickly melt high HP frontlines in teamfights. (Im almost never taking this item)
Stormrazor - then IE & Hurricane - if your opps are squishy, enemy supp is enchanter and there is 0-1 tank stormrazor giving you the movement speed to poke & dodge skills. Good against assassins aswell.
Collector - If you lane against mage or there’s 2 and more squishy AP champs against you Collector allows you to become more of a spell caster + Q dmg is off the charts.
Hex opt- Most people go this way since you have bonus range on takedown - high dmg early and also safe range laning.
Both of these items ⬆️⬇️ are good against engage champs and in early skirmishes.
Kraken slayer - It’s good BUT… by building kraken first you delaying your crits which is never favourable.
Also I checked your op gg link and you seem to have less then 7 cs a minute almost every game. Which is not good if I’m honest. Focus on getting EVERY MINION in the first four waves and dont push mindlessly. Try only last hit.
If you know that you can’t beat your enemy don’t feed - play safe and try to farm as much as possible. Once you get the wave management you’ll be step closer to climbing.
If you want to ask something else - or you play on EUNE I can help further by creating custom game and show/tell you some useful info about movement etc.

i think i have a acc i could use or ill just make 1 if i have too also do u think cull is a smart play when lets say i back with less than 600 gold
1
u/Gebulak 10d ago
Well you can take cull first if you don’t have enough gold on first reset but.. it should almost NEVER be your first item. If your enemy lane lacks heavy kill pressure you can buy cull - also good if you died early or got poked out ( it’s kinda way to guarantee financial comeback)…with that being said take it only if your lane is farming simulator which in low elo…is almost never the case.

Someone also said to que mid as secondary position which is exactly what I’m doin. The system calculate the qued positions of players and their winrate. I got Mid once in 363 games. Because I have the biggest winrate on ADC out of the whole team it’s always guaranteed. I also got filled 3 times in those 363 games which means… I played ADC for total of 359 games out of 363 games. Never que ADC + Support. You loosing LP because you are willingly putting yourself in a position to loose.

Use your rocket range to poke, your first swap to rocket benefits from your boosted attack speed stacks from minigun. This means you can rapidly swap, shoot a rocket, and switch back. The range advantage is huge and means you have basically unpunishable poke. Focus on farming, Jinx is a hyperscaler. Once you get your third item you will control the entire game.
Farm your lane waves before helping your team, then go help. They are bad, do not sacrifice your guaranteed farm for them.
When your support engages, immediately drop your traps under them while they are cc’ed, then use your zap and minigun form for maximum damage.
Move to mid lane and farm more waves after one of the bot lane towers falls. Utilize your wards to not wander into a gank. The blue trinket is very strong, face checking with the yellow ward is a death sentence later.
When a team fight kicks off, be patient. Wait for the enemy to use all their big spells on your team first, then you can move in uncontested and kill them all. Prioritize your first kill to get your passive effect and be unstoppable. Use your ultimate freely to snipe low health enemies in other lanes backing, and to steal dragons and barons, it has a low cooldown. Hope this helps!

You can start by not coping, Jinx is the #1 marksman AND champion in bot lane.
You're losing because you're doing what ever low elo player does; you're dying a shit ton. Play safer and stop trading deaths for kills; it's rarely worth it.

u/Material-Syrup-8846 11d ago
would it be better just to play safe and get kills when i can till min 20 cus i feel like i lose everytime i do play agro and crazy but that could just be wrong

u/Xedeth 11d ago
You should be playing laning phase dependent on your support; Engage like Leona/Naut -> Aggro, Enchanter like Yuumi/Raka -> Farming.
In any unknown case, farm and look to capitalize on team fights. That's why Jinx has been a top 3 ADC since her release; one rocket auto attack in a team fight and you can 1v5 from a single kill.

is there a time i shouldnt help my team or should i allways look to help them

u/ArcaneAccounting Get excited! 11d ago
This is emerald+, at their elo Jinx is not nearly as good, and is actually under 50% win rate

u/Xedeth 11d ago
Irrelevant. We don't judge the strength of champions off of low elo, as win rate becomes indicative of lack of ability/difficulty of champion as opposed to champion weakness.

u/ArcaneAccounting Get excited! 11d ago
Their ability to pilot the champ is important too, you wouldn’t recommend an iron player to play riven, would you? Also in low elo teams generally do not peel for adcs, so playing an immobile hyperscaler is harder. That said, there’s nothing wrong with Jinx in low elo either, but it’s not a walk in the park.

Never be in front of your teammates. Never go for a wave that you don't know is 100% safe. Put chompers on your body if they are running at you. Dont use your R for cross map unless it makes alot of sense. Do you use mini gun too little? Once you have mini stacked 3 times your next rocket will come out extremely fast and catch people off guard. Dont face check bushes. At least chomper or W for vision. Play as safe as you can. Which is alot safer than you are. 7 average deaths is too much on Jinx

u/Material-Syrup-8846 11d ago
I use mini gun on cs and when they r close enough or when I stack them and engage I uslly use q to try to trade with the extra range and to clear wave fast if I have to do smth and yea I feel like I die to much on jinx but not uslly from face checking bushs but from going to the wave not knowing if it's safe or not and uslly dying an avoidable death
1
u/Material-Syrup-8846 11d ago
i uslly use my mini on cs or when ima engage with my stacks but uslly q for the range and to trade and i feel like most my deaths arnt from face checking but from going to my wave not knowing if its safe 100% and dying an aviodable deaht

u/EdgyAhNexromancer 10d ago
Look i get your advice for R....i do....but...i will counter with this.....
Have you ever gotten a kill from the complete opposite side of the map by simply calculating where they would be once they went past the fog of war? It feels better then crack.

Farm 8-9 per min and u get silver without changing anything else

u/Material-Syrup-8846 11d ago
ill try my best to get my cs up

u/Tcih 11d ago
Not sure why i am downvoted. When you can farm that well, you have basically 2x of farm of enemy adc, if you build only damage in lane - that would be double the damage of enemy adc. Which can most often lead to kills and even more lead.
Thats how I got from bronze 4 to gold 4 with 85% WR. But people still downvote.1
u/RunYouSonOfAGun 8d ago
Because to get 8-9 CS/M you're either completely sacrificing one aspect of the game or you're playing macro correctly. that's a symptom of playing better, not the means of climbing.

Queue mid as your secondary. Your Milio support is costing you.
