You seem to be talking about the W even though you said Q. I'm just going to assume you were talking about theW. Varus's Q is a linear through collision skillshot. Varus can move during this state and has a much greater chance of hitting with his arrow because despite it having 25 less top range his distance is easily adjusted.

Oh and isn't blocked by anything that happens to be within the range of the hitbox. Zap is very fast but the short delay is a pretty good opening to dodge it. You can tell you will get hit by it when you are in her general range and there is nothing in her way.

The E is not reliable. I don't understand how I have to say this very often but. E has to used on a target that wants to chase you. In a narrow pathway, with no gap closers, and isn't already ontop of you or has just plain flanked you. It will snare. But it isn't like Yordle Snap trap where you can plant in key locations to secure a perimeter and it stays there. It goes away pretty quickily so you can't plant that well ahead of time but you have to still plant them ahead of time.

Q hurts alot but it's also her only poke tool. Powwow has bonus range and a slight boost in damage but the loss of attack speed is pretty crippling and draining. E of course scales from AP and R is an execute. Q is the only damage spell she has and it's easily dodgeable.

Jinx's slow is a strong slow. For supports. Well. They get scaling slows but admittedly they'd have to buy a lot of AP to beat 70. With the exception of Thresh, Lulu, and Nami. Nami and Lulu get the best scaling slows and Nami's Tidal Wave can slow for the same amount and for longer with the range it takes to hit it's target. Thresh's wall is just a 99% slow triggering the slow cap of 110 to 120 movement speed.

Keep in mind that all those spells can hit numerous targets and Nami and Thresh's ults make a fight. Jinx's Q is a slow to help her escape (because she only has an escape after getting a kill or a turret destroyed) or chase down a target. It's useful in dueling but It's not going to top the sort of champs who could interrupt her when she briefly channels (Quinn), Champs who can juke that in a split second (Lucian, Ezreal, Graves) or help her outduel opponents with a far stronger auto attack and more brutal auto attack modifiers (Vayne, Twitch, Kog'Maw).
