Analysis
Review
The only assassin in the game that instantly teleports to the backline, Jacqueline has tremendous potential to carry entire stages when left unchecked. Unlike Linzy, her kit is mostly offensive with less durability so that her DPS can skyrocket the first 30s of the match and nuke 1 backline, while Linzy slowly ramps up damage over long fights.
On top of that, S1 prevents her from being taunted, so she can stay on the target until it's dead (or yourself). Investing in her artifact boosts her attack for the first 30 seconds, which synergizes with her purpose of killing a backline in the early stages of the fight. Her ult is also one of the only ult in the game that targets the lowest HP unit, instead of the highest attack or nearest unit, making this extremely useful to pick off another backline after the first one is down.
A well-invested Jac can make short work of stages where there are high-priority backlines like Ayame, Mephi, and Vivi. This is especially prominent in 16-45, which ran Ayame and Honglan as 2 extremely annoying backlines, but Jac is able to make short work of them. Without her, expect to level your frontlines a lot more since the damage from Ayame and Honglan there is ridiculously high.
However, Jac is almost rendered useless if she is not invested enough, acting as a short distraction before being killed due to the lack of stats to survive as well as DPS to finish her job. Her M1 cooldown is also extremely long, and your target will most likely be already dead most of the time.
Compared to Linzy, she is much more niche as a backline due to the lack of durability, and her DPS also falters as the match progresses which will be a common occurrence towards late game. Without substantial resources invested in Jac for endgame stages to the point where she can kill the backline almost immediately, it would be better to instead invest in Linzy which at least has higher survivability and DPS for longer stages.
Single Bosses
Her signature jump is not as useful since the boss is not squishy that can be eliminated instantly, and her early-stage ATK boost heavily falls off due to boss fights being extended DPS checks.
PVP
Jac is an excellent pick if you can position her to jump into high-priority backlines like Vivienne or Mephi, being the only unit that can snipe off a backline at the start of the game. Be careful of Naiah, since her artifact allows her to sleep a Jac when low enough, which could end up killing her due to how squishy Jac is.
