Strategies
It is recommended to use Jinx on stronger, tankier enemies such as Super Brainz or All-Star to aid your team in vanquishing them due to their high amounts of health.
Jinx's small splash radius is useful when two enemies are right next to eachother, which includes Wizard's Co-Star.
Due to Jinx's debuff duration being almost the same as it's cooldown duration, you can keep using it as it exits it's cooldown in order to keep the effect on someone forever.. This is most useful in a 1v1, as it lets you deal more damage for the entire duration of the battle. It's short cooldown also means that it's almost always ready, so don't be afraid to use it at a moment's notice.
With the Photosynthesis upgrade, you can use this ability on enemies that are about to be vanquished by teammates for some free health. The overhealth granted by this upgrade can also be useful for escaping the 100 damage threshold, so attacks like Big Bang Beam or Imp Punt can't take you out in a single hit.
The Pollination upgrade is effective for wiping out enemies on the gardens/graveyards in Suburbination, as their close proximity is perfect for this upgrade's splash radius.
