I recently got Jinx and I somehow ended up playing in the Middle Lane and I had to improvise a bit but I actually IMHO that she made a very nasty mid laner :)

I started off with her Flame Chompers! 2 points early and then maxed her Zap! and Switcheroo! back and forth and I found that she was able to give alot of damage quickly and then made it impossible for the enemy to escape from the battle when they got low on health.

I was wondering if anyone else had used or thought of using Jinx as a mid lane champion at all and also a friend was saying that she made a decent Jungler too

in case you were wondering this is how my leveling up went

I could actually see her being a decent mid due to her great waveclear (Q) and her two forms of great CC (W&E). However, your skill sequence is wonky to me. Just take skills by 4 four and max zap at 9. That's like the only way to max her currently. Q is kinda one point wonder, tbh, cause she only really needs it for waveclearing in lane.

Why max Zap first? Is this specifically in midlane or in bot lane too?

I prefer the extra range and more AS over the mildly unreliable slow.

From own experience on bottom lane I can say maxing Q helps alot more. The additional range just makes it easier to harrass without getting harrass yourself.
Also Zap gets blocked by creeps and has a casting time, which makes it a bit unreliable in lane.

Yeah, she seems incredibly versatile.. I've seen her played mid, top, and even bottom for some reason.
