Jhin Passive Ability
Champion Build Guide
Hello! My name is Skappsi/Khada. I've been playing Jhin for a while, and I am M7 600k+ points.
Jhin is a very strong ADC champion in the meta at the moment. His AD Scaling + Dark Harvest is insanely good, but no man can play Jhin well without a guide to tell him how to do so. So here's my guide to show you how!
Jhin is a very strong ADC champion in the meta at the moment. His AD Scaling + Dark Harvest is insanely good, but no man can play Jhin well without a guide to tell him how to do so. So here's my guide to show you how!
Passive: Whisper
![]() |
This is what gives Jhin all his AD. His passive converts Attack Speed and Crit to AD, giving him more AD as he levels. This is why Dark Harvest works incredibly well on him as well. |
Q: Dancing Grenade
W: Deadly Flourish
E: Captive Audience
R: Curtain Call
Starter Items
|
![]() |
New meta starter for ADC. Good aggressive start. |
![]() |
Works for Jhin as passive start since you already have enough early AD. Good with Time Warp Tonic as you can start 4 Pots. |
![]() |
You are able to take 3-4 depending on what item you started. |
![]() |
There is no debate, early game you should take this. |
Critical Strike Build
Core
![]() |
Jhin's most popular mythic. It's just a high damage good mythic that works for many scenario's. |
![]() |
This items is becoming less essential for Jhin because of the higher armor around after the durability patch. You should only be going this item 2nd vs a full squishy team. |
OR
![]() |
The current meta massively advises
![]() ![]() |
![]() |
This item is really good on Jhin as extra range helps you stay further back from the action and increases your movement speed and damage. I recommend taking this item 3rd. |
![]() |
Once you're above 40% Crit, you can buy
![]() ![]() ![]() |
Situational
![]() |
If you're up against some lifesteal champions, you must get
![]() ![]() |
![]() |
A
![]() |
Lethality Build
(Not recommended right now!)
![]() |
This is the best rush for the lethality build as it is a very gold efficient item in stats, and offers a great passive of taking down wards. |
![]() |
The best lethality mythic for Jhin as it offers an easibly accessable shield (Auto + Q), sufficient damage and omnivamp. |
![]() |
LDR is the best option with this build as lethality is often easily countered by the slightly more tanky person on the enemy team, and offers extra burst against the squishies. |

![]() ![]() ![]() |
![]() |
We take Presence Of Mind for mana restoration. |
![]() |
We take Legend: Bloodline for the extra lifesteal. |
![]() |
We take Cut Down as most enemies are tankier than Jhin. |
![]() |
We take taste of blood for the healing to survive and have better trades. |
![]() |
After some investigation, Ingenious seems to be the better option for Jhin at the moment as its synergy with Galeforce brings the CD lower. Now Ravenous is gone, there is not a clear better choice for the domination tree. |
![]() |
You can take Biscuit Delivery for Jhin's early mana problems if you struggle with it. |
![]() |
Additionally, taking Time Warp Tonic to make your Biscuits and Pots more effective when you need them. |
![]() |
Flash is essential for most champions, and Jhin is no exception. Flash is just an incredibly useful Summoner Spell, and you should ALWAYS take this on Jhin. |
![]() |
Heal is the most common ADC summoner, and you should be taking this most games. |
![]() |
Only good if your enchanter support (Soraka, Sona etc.) takes Heal. |
![]() |
Cleanse is the optimal summoner spell to replace
![]() |
![]() |
Unpopular and bad ADC at the moment. Early game she can beat you up pretty bad, but you will outscale her and perform better. Be careful about early game, and you will most likely not win 1v1's. |
![]() |
He's only really a problem when paired with Lulu, but hes very squishy and very immobile, and can be exploited super easily. |
![]() |
With Lucian Nami being pretty popular, his damage can be insane. Be extremely careful early game, but you will outscale him as with most ADCs. |
![]() |
Try and establish a lead before she hits her Level 6 powerspike. Avoid standing behind your minions, especially if that minion is low HP, as it will chunk your HP. |
![]() |
She definitely does damage, but she's been unpopular for a while, and you can do a lot more for your team than she can. Be careful about her Q, but it is quite easily dodgible if not CC'd. |
![]() |
Personally, I find this champion really annoying and often ban him. Play carefully around his invisibility and don't shove waves or you wont be able to farm if hes around and invisible. |
![]() |
True damage is annoying man. If she starts fighting you, you have to fight back or you'll be demolished. Don't stand near walls. Weak laning phase so exploitable, kind of OP at the moment though. |
![]() |
Can be really annoying. At level 6, you are in great danger. You usually have free poke before 6. If paired with Malphite, it wont be fun post 6. All I can say is good luck. |
