How to play as Jinx

Keep the wave near your tower to make Lucian's forward dash expose him to a gank, and use Fishbones(Q) to last-hit when he can win the direct trade.

Place Flame Chompers(E) across Lucian's likely path or retreat route instead of dropping them under his feet; keep your distance when he still has E available.

Jinx players report that Lucian can dash past Flame Chompers(E) when they are thrown directly under him, so the traps work better to shape his route than as a guaranteed stop to his dash.

How to play as Lucian

Look for a short E-and-ability trade when Jinx is on Fishbones(Q) with little Pow-Pow attack-speed buildup, but avoid giving her a long fight once she can kite back.
