Vex vs Jinx Matchup Summary

The Vex vs Jinx matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 7 recent matches analyzed, Jinx wins with a 57.1% win rate compared to Vex's 42.9%, giving Jinx a 14.3 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Vex controls the early laning stage, but Jinx outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Vex needs to press advantages before Jinx reaches their power spikes, while Jinx should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Vex leads by 0.5s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Jinx has a strong advantage in this matchup. Vex players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Jinx overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

7.5Jinx
Jinx significantly out-farms Vex by 2.2 CS per minute, accumulating an estimated 32 CS lead by mid game. This substantial farming gap gives Jinx a major gold advantage and earlier item completions.

Damage
758Vex
610Jinx
Vex heavily out-damages Jinx by 148 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Jinx should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Vex's sustained damage advantage take over.
Economy
11,180Vex
13,363Jinx
Jinx generates a commanding 2,183 more gold per game than Vex. This substantial economic advantage means Jinx consistently reaches key item breakpoints earlier, creating a compounding lead that grows throughout the game.

Utility
1.1Vex
0.6Jinx
Vex provides 0.5 seconds more crowd control per minute than Jinx, offering better gank setup potential and slightly more team fight utility. This CC advantage helps Vex coordinate with their jungler and control the pace of skirmishes.
Sustain
545Vex
507Jinx
Vex and Jinx have comparable sustain profiles, with only 38 HP/min separating their healing and damage mitigation. Neither champion can out-attrition the other in lane, so trades will be decided by burst potential and ability usage rather than sustain.

The early game (first 15 minutes) is a toss-up between Vex and Jinx, with Vex holding a razor-thin 50.0% win rate edge (+0.0%). Individual skill and jungle proximity will matter more than champion advantage in the early laning phase.

Jinx is far superior in the late game (25+ minutes), boasting a 60.0% win rate — 20.0 points above Vex. Extended games heavily favor Jinx, whose kit and scaling make them a dominant force in team fights and objective control.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Vex has the edge early, but Jinx gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
