Jinx vs Kog'Maw

Confidence highUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

This lane turns on wave state and rocket splash punishes during Kog'Maw's last-hit windows.
Jinx wins extended trades with item spikes and must avoid early all-ins before peel is ready.

Trading pattern

Hit Kog'Maw during last-hit animations when his (W) is down and support can't punish.
Use (Q) rockets to safely poke clustered minions and Kog'Maw together for splash damage.
Avoid extended fights without support peel or when (E) root is on cooldown to prevent all-in risk.

Danger windows

Respect (W) uptime as it extends his range and DPS, making trades costly.
Avoid stepping into engage range when enemy support controls brush or can chain CC after your (E).
Beware of (R) poke when your health is low or after using (E) defensively.

Early game

Use the first three waves to hold a slow push near your tower to avoid Kog'Maw's poke.
Punish Kog'Maw stepping up for caster minion last hits only if enemy support is out of position.
Keep (E) ready to zone engage paths when your support commits to peel or CC.

Power spikes

First completed item lets Jinx contest wave control and punish Kog'Maw's forced CS attempts.
Two-item spike enables safer rocket poke and reset chains to win extended trades and teamfights.
Level 6 (R) adds execute poke to finish low-health Kog'Maw or force him off waves.

Win conditions

Survive early lane by denying Kog'Maw free farm with rocket splash on clustered minions.
Convert health and wave control leads into plates and dragon vision before first item spike.
Use item spikes and resets to dominate grouped fights with front-to-back positioning and peel.

Tip: For Jinx vs Kog'Maw, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast ADC lane check.
