What the Data Means
This page breaks down the Jinx vs Karthus matchup in League of Legends in the ADC role, using current ranked statistics. Across 436 recorded games on patch 16.13.1, Jinx wins 45.6% of the time against Karthus. That places Karthus among Jinx’s toughest opponents right now — the win rate sits clearly below the break-even line, which is exactly why this matchup is flagged as a counter.
When reading this matchup, weigh the sample size as much as the percentage — bigger samples mean the number is less likely to swing with the next patch. The stats refresh automatically every 48 hours from ranked games at Emerald and above, so this page always reflects the current meta rather than an old snapshot.
