How to Play This Matchup

Survive to Scale

Caitlyn will try to bully you early. Give up CS if needed, your job is to not die. Jinx outscales hard after 2 items. Play for farm, not fights.

Armor Rush

Both champions deal physical damage. Whoever builds armor first (Plated Steelcaps, Bramble Vest) gets a huge advantage in trades.

Exploit Caitlyn's Weakness

Caitlyn's main weakness: Mid-game dip, assassins, short-range all-in. Play around this to maximize your advantage.

Jinx Win Condition

Farm to 3 items, get one reset in teamfight and pentakill

Caitlyn Win Condition

Bully lane with range, trap control, headshot poke
