It’s well known that ADC is one of the best classes in ARAM, and Jinx just so happens to be one of the best AD Carries. Therefore, if you rolled Jinx in ARAM, that’s some pretty nice luck. To make your gameplay even more satisfying, today we are gonna cover the absolute best Jinx Aram build.
Best Items for Jinx in ARAM
Kraken Slayer
Kraken Slayer is the absolute number 1 item you can buy as Jinx playing ARAM. The item is great against squishies, and pretty much everyone is squishy in the ARAM early game. Having Kraken Slayer will enable you to kill more enemies, push more waves, and put more pressure on your enemies.
Infinity Edge
In ARAM, we will not be wasting any time on big purchases. We are getting Infinity Edge as our second item, no need to delay it. The item will greatly increase our damage, and give us great amounts of critical strike, and critical strike damage. It will also prepare us to stack critical strike going forward.
Runaan’s Hurricane
Runna’s Hurricane is a great buy for ARAM. It’s an optional buy in the Summoners Rift version of the game because there are fewer situations where you can make use of this item. However, in ARAM, you can make use of it’s passive pretty much all the time. Enemies will always be closely stacked together, and you will be able to generate tons of value from this item. Great buy from a value perspective, and it is also one of the most fun items to buy!
Lord Dominik’s Regards
Chances are, by the time you come to consider your 4th item, your enemies will already have built some armor, or a lot of armor. Worry not because we have a perfect remedy, Lord Dominik’s Regards. This item will give you 40% armor penetration, which is quite a lot of value, especially if the enemy has stacked too much armor.
Rapid Firecannon
To finish of our build, we will go with the Rapid Firecannon. The item will periodically increase our basic attack range, which will be beneficial for starting fights, and stacking Jinx’s passive. Its also helpful for pushing, and clearing minions, which are one of the most important ARAM mechanics.
Jinx ARAM Runes
The runes that we will run on our Jinx ARAM build are the following:
- Precision
- Presence of Mind
- Legend: Bloodline
- Coup de Grace
- Absolute Focus
- Gathering the Storm
Precision will be the main rune to run every game. It’s quickly stackable and does great damage. Next up will be the Presence of Mind which is a top ARAM pick, as we will be able to proc it many times in the game. Bloodline is not the strongest rune, however, its the best one out of all the other options.
Coup de Grace is great for finishing off enemies, and making sure you pick up an extra kill here and there. We take absolute focus to enhance our damage, but it does condition us to play extra carefully. Gathering the storm is taken because it scales faster on ARAM, and its a really solid rune to support you in the late game.
Final Thoughts
Jinx is one of the best ARAM champions, and it would be a shame to not make a full use of her potential. For this reason, I have compiled the best build that the highest MMR ARAM players use. Make sure to follow the exact order, as it is carefully optimized with many things taken in consideration. Good luck in your games!
