Advice to Understand How Jinx Will Play
Rockets aren't always the best choice! Jinx's minigun is incredibly powerful when fully ramped up. Switch to it whenever an enemy champion gets too close.
Jinx's rockets deal full damage to all enemies in the explosion. Use them on minions in lane to hit nearby enemy champions without drawing minion aggro.
When a fight starts try to stay on the edge of fray by poking with rockets and Zap!. Do not run in and unload with the minigun until you feel it is safe.

This could demonstrate that Jinx does not help cover for him to deal more damage or that her allyship also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Graves is played alongside Jinx on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Jinx.
Additionally, when Graves plays with Jinx on the same team, he often takes a little less damage than when he fights alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Jinx does a decent job of protecting Graves during team fights.
