Complete superiority: Jinx dominates both win rate (52.2%) and damage output (846 vs 744/min, 2nd among ADC). The 102 damage/min difference creates massive snowball potential.

The Jinx versus Varus matchup as ADC is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
Except for rare builds, Jinx deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Varus deals mainly physical damage (70.35%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
An important advantage of Jinx is higher farming statistics (ranked 5th among role champions) (versus 27th for Varus), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Jinx player to maintain constant pressure on Varus, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
