Jinx is here—and she’s just as chaotic as you’d expect. Riftbound’s take on this Zaunite menace delivers a disruptive tempo play that turns discard into fuel, not fallout.
She’s not just another Champion Unit. Jinx is the engine behind a discard-heavy midrange or aggro deck that doesn’t slow down once the hand starts burning.
In a format where value often comes from stability, Jinx flips the table and dares you to go unstable—faster.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
At 5 Energy, Jinx drops in with a solid 5 Power and 5 Health. That alone makes her a respectable mid-game threat.
But her real value unlocks the moment you start chucking cards.
Every time you discard one or more, she readies herself (untaps, essentially) and gains +1 Power for the turn.
This means:
-
You can swing with her, discard, and swing again.
-
She scales during your turn based on how much chaos you’re creating.
-
She loves aggressive spell chains or gear-based discard effects.
Jinx encourages a high-risk, high-velocity playstyle—burning through your hand to keep her punching through blockers, pinging face, or smashing value engines.
She’s not durable in the long term, but she doesn’t need to be. The longer she sticks, the more damage she does. Think of her as a living, laughing inevitability machine.
Jinx Visuals
The card captures Jinx in her element: gleefully sabotaging a bomb with what looks like a Sharpie.
There’s no subtlety—just a glowing heart, a half-finished doodle, and the kind of look that says, “Let’s blow something up, yeah?”
The colors are rich and mischievous—dark violets, punk blue, and cherry red—that place her right in the neon-slick chaos of Zaun.
Pull Rate & Value Speculation
Jinx is card 202/298 and flagged as a Champion Unit, which suggests higher rarity and likely a foil or alt-art version down the line.
As a major League of Legends character, she’s guaranteed to be a fan and collector favorite—especially if Riftbound expands its discard synergies or releases a full Rebel archetype.
Whether or not Jinx becomes meta-defining depends on discard support. But from a market perspective? She’s already a magnet.
Expect her to be a chase pull early in the set lifecycle.
