Kog'Maw vs Jinx

Kog'Maw lore:

Belched forth from a rotting Void incursion deep in the wastelands of Icathia, Kog'Maw is an inquisitive yet putrid creature with a caustic, gaping mouth. This particular Void-spawn needs to gnaw and drool on anything within reach to truly understand it. Though not inherently evil, Kog'Maw's beguiling naiveté is dangerous, as it often precedes a feeding frenzy—not for sustenance, but to satisfy its unending curiosity.

Kog'Maw tips:

Kog'Maw can outrange most champions with his Bio-Arcane Barrage ability.
Use Void Ooze to set up a perfect Living Artillery.
Make the most out of your Icathian Surprise.

Playing Against Kog'Maw

Kog'Maw doesn't have a good escape ability, so he is especially prone to ganks.
Run away from Kog'Maw after he dies!!!!
The range on Living Artillery increases each rank.
Bio-Arcane Barrage allows Kog'Maw to kill Baron Nashor extremely early. It can be valuable to ward Nashor when Kog'Maw completes his Blade of the Ruined King.

Kog'Maw abilities description:

Icathian Surprise (passive)

4 seconds after dying, Kogmaw explodes, dealing true damage to surrounding enemies.

Caustic Spittle (Q)

Kog'Maw launches a corrosive projectile which deals magic damage and corrodes the target's armor and magic resist for a short time. Kog'Maw also gains additional attack speed.

Bio-Arcane Barrage (W)

Kog'Maw's attacks gain range and deal a percent of the target's maximum health as magic damage.

Void Ooze (E)

Kog'Maw launches a peculiar ooze which damages all enemies it passes through and leaves a trail which slows enemies who stand on it.

Living Artillery (R)

Kog'Maw fires an artillery shell at a great distance dealing magic damage (increased significantly on low health enemies) and revealing non-stealthed targets. Additionally, multiple Living Artilleries in a short period of time cause them to cost additional Mana.
