Jinx vs Master Yi Matchup Summary

The Jinx vs Master Yi matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Master Yi wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to Jinx's 20.0%, giving Master Yi a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Master Yi dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights.
