Greetings, I am tiggar47. I am a Challenger tier Mid-lane main who in Season 5 peaked at Challenger Tier 500 LP from Diamond 2 in Season 4. At first, when Jhin came out I didn't have much intrests in that practicular type of champion since I only played Ahri on main account, then I've seen how intresting Jhin can be so I started to theorycraft and master the champion as I did with Ahri. This guide covers my own experimental Guide which I've developed throught hundreds of games.

This build may be a little awkward but trust me, it is very good.

I hope you enjoy this short Experimental Guide, please leave your reviews in discussion section if possible, would be much appreciated :)

Jhin is a mid to late game hyper carry that defeats his opponents with High Damage basic Attacks and High Crits. Amazing damage with Whisper and semi-reliable crits gives him similar DPS to other Attack Damage Carry's even without Attack Speed. He's one of the most low mobility champions who require alot of peel in early game. Fun to play and incredibly amazing champion in good hands.

Pros
+ Amazing Crit Animations
+ Strong Early Game laning Ability
+ Amazingly high Attack Damage
+ Excellent AD scaling/ratios on Q and passive
+ High Mobility Mid-Late game(with this build)


Cons
- Weak mobility early game(movement speed bonus too low aswell as crit chance)
- Requires some peel early-mid game(depending on enemy team)
- Weak self peel early game(w & E can't cut it)
- Hard to get used to/Master(with this build)
- Unique playing Style/Laning Phase(also a Pros)

Now after Introduction and Pros/Cons I am going to jump right to our main part that makes this champion so Strong and Unique, and that is his passive Whisper.

Description of Whisper:........
Death In 4 Acts: Jhin's basic attacks utilize ammunition and his attack speed cannot be improved except through leveling up. Jhin can attack 4 times before having to reload for 2.5 seconds, and automatically does so after 10 seconds of not attacking.

The final shot is a guaranteed critical strike that also deals 15 / 20 / 25% of target's missing health as bonus physical damage.

Every Moment Matters: Jhin's critical strikes deal 25% reduced damage, but grant 10% (+ 4% per 10% bonus attack speed) movement speed for 2 seconds.

Additionally, his attack damage is increased by 2% - 40% (based on level) (+ 4% per 10% critical strike chance) (+ 2.5% per 10% bonus attack speed).
With this particular build of mine Whisper gets mostly affected.
Even if the attack speed is fixed(only increased by levels) he has Attack Damage Multipliers which are increased with Attack Speed and Crit Chance. Also he gains short movement speed bonus each time he criticaly strikes.


.
.
Crit chance works normally, except every critical strike does 25% reduced damage. (With Infinity Edge or Crit damage runes you can increase overall damage your crits do)
So overall, you attack slowly and hit like a truck, specially your 4th shot but after such powerfull shot you will have to take time to reload.

Dancing Grenade is the most simple ability in Jhin's set of abilities. It bounces up to 4 times and deals increased damage every time it kills your target damage is increased by 35%, so if you kill a minion the next bounce damage on the nearest enemy it bounces to will be increased by 35%
It should be mostly used to clear backline, eg. caster minions.
.
I highly recommend maxing this ability first since it increases AD ratio unlike other abilities and like I've explained above, good for backline clear.
.
As you can see in Video below, you can use the same tactic to deal damage to enemy champions, first by killing 3 minions to increase damage by total of 105%.

Overall this ability is very useful, you can combine it with Captive Audience to avoid ganks or turn tides of battle by shnaring enemies from massive 2,500 range. This is one of my favorite abilities, you can use it to clear low HP minion waves for gold income, to CC lock a escaping enemy champion or kill low HP enemy champions or even in good calculation steal jungler monsters(Gromp/Golem).
Oftenly in lower tiers I've used to ward Gromp or Golem and steal it with my W, pretty fun and useful ability.

. . .

Beauty in Death is passive of Captive Audience both cosmeticly looks beauteful and also spawns a free Lotus Trap which instantly detonates.
Captive Audience is very usefull for preventing ganks or extra map vision. Combined with Deadly Flourish it can do pretty big amounts of damage.
I personally use Captive Audience for additional map vision or gank prevention.
.
. .
. .
Curtain Call is the ability that makes Jhin so special, it gives you true sniper feeling & Caitlyn's Ace in the Hole cannot be compared with it.
It can completly changes tides of battle, either by using it before the fight to create unfair advantage for your team or snipe down low HP enemy champions.
It can be used for many things, 4th shot can also be used for dragon/baron steals since it does ridicilous amounts of damage.
Timed correctly in late game it can deal over 1.2k damage to Baron/Elder outdamaging late game Smite(level 18) that deals massive 1k true damage.
