Extreme

Jhin's highest enemy. He can either be the best blitz in the world, or the worst. If he's the best you can go afk. Jhin's low mobility makes Blitz hook you really easy and if not come to you with his W and E you so after he can Q you. He ll CC you very hard and you cant do anything else than using your flash.Play it safe and keep the bush he sits in lit up with wards and traps. Midgame, be wary of walking up to kill towers/harass people as his W + tier 2 boots if a lot of movement speed that most champions without a dash/blink cant deal with.

Introduction

Hello, i'm Sebiix, im a gold player from EUNE Who's maining Jhin, the virtuoso. He's a strong ADC and i've been playing him since they released him on the PBE.
You're wondering now, why would we read something that a gold player writes when we can read other posts from higher ranks. Well, I've been playing this champion for some time. And I know what to say and what to do with him.

Pros/Cons

Jhin is a really good pick even for the early game and for the late game. Thanks to his passive and a solid mid game thanks to his high dmg coming from his ult and CC coming from his W. However, he's one of the most immobile champions in the game and has no way to protect himself outside of well laid traps. A champion that can be picked up and played by most players, with a skill ceiling so high it's hard to see.

Abilities

-> -> ->

Maxing R > Q > W > E is the best all around ability build for Jhin. The Q has an increased AD ratio per level and it's his best harass/wave-clear tool. W is great to max after Q due to its immesnse CC potential that can catch out a foe who's taken even a smidge of poke, landing it into an ultimate can secure many-a kill. Last is the Traps, the damage is too unreliable to be maxed any sooner and are more of a free vision tool than a damage dealer unless they chain in teamfights. Ultimate is ultimate and should be levelled whenever possible.
