WHY JHIN?



I choosed to play Jhin as soon as I started my journey with League Of Legends. In my opinion he is the coolest looking Champion in the game and his kit is also very cool. He has very satysfying animations as well and his skins are very well made. So this is the first reason I main Him- The Desing. The second reason is his playstyle wchich i just love. He has a lot of DMG in different parts of the game. You can do a lot of pressure on the map by using his W and R to secure objectives or to steal them. The third reason is that he is just very fun to play.

Runes




New Season 8 Runes Update:
-Sorcery: The best actually rune page for Jhin is sorcery with Precision as secondary tree. You get a lot of poke with Arcane Comet as well as with Scorch.Manaflow band for more mana sustain in lane, Triumph and Coup de Grace for last hitting enemies with your 4th Shot.
-Domination: This is a very interesting rune page for Jhin but it is very situational. If you'r support picks a champ with a lost of CC like Thresh, Morgana , Blitz this rune page works great because you can easily proc your Electrocute and burst the enemy ADC or supp.
It works very well in lane but in teamfights at late game it might be useless as you dont have enough time to proc your keystone. When you decide to go with this runepage you should try to snowball your lane as fast as you can and try to end the game as fast as possible.

Masteries

Your Keystone mastery that you will choose the most is Warlords Bloodlust because it gives you a lot of sustain early with for example long sword and three potions. It will help you to stay alive and farm easily. In late game you will heal a lot from this keystone using your fourth shot from .

Deathfire Touch is a lot worse than Bloodlust in current meta. You can pick it however if you want some poke early and then in late game but it wont give you sustain wchich bloodlust does. If you decide to go Deathfire you must also pick Feast and Vampirism. Any other keystone is useless on Jhin.

Abilities


Passive: Whisper Jhin's hand cannon, Whisper, is a precise instrument designed to deal superior damage. It fires at a fixed rate and carries only four shots. Jhin imbues the final bullet with dark magics to critically strike and deal bonus execute damage. Whenever Whisper crits, it inspires Jhin with a burst of movement speed.

Q: Dancing Grenade Jhin launches a magical cartridge at an enemy. It can hit up to four targets and gains damage each time it kills.
Jhin launches a cartridge at the targeted enemy that deals 50/75/100/125/150 (+0) (+60% Ability Power) physical damage before bouncing to a nearby target that has not yet been hit.The cartridge can hit a maximum of 4 times. Each kill by the cartridge increases the damage of subsequent hits by 35%.

W: Deadly Flourish Jhin brandishes his cane, firing a single shot with incredible range. It pierces through minions and monsters, but stops on the first champion hit. If the target was recently struck by Jhin's allies, lotus traps, or basic attacks, they are rooted.
Jhin fires a long range shot that stops on the first champion hit, dealing 50/85/120/155/190 (+50% Attack Damage) physical damage to it, and 75% of that damage to minions and monsters hit along the way.If Deadly Flourish strikes a champion that has been hit by one of Jhin's basic attacks, Lotus Traps, or allies within the last 4 seconds it will root them for 0.75/1/1.25/1.5/1.75 seconds and grants Jhin movement speed as though he had crit them.

E: Captive Audience Jhin places an invisible lotus trap that blooms when walked over. It slows nearby enemies before dealing damage with an explosion of serrated petals.

Beauty in Death - When Jhin kills an enemy champion, a lotus trap will bloom near their corpse.
Jhin places an invisible Lotus Trap that lasts 2 minutes and activates when stepped on, revealing nearby enemies for 4 seconds.The trap leaves behind a zone that slows enemies inside by 35% and detonates after 2 seconds, dealing 20/80/140/200/260 (+120% Attack Damage) (+100% Ability Power) magic damage (65% damage on subsequent hits and vs. minions and monsters).Jhin prepares a new trap every 0 seconds and can store 2 at once. Beauty in Death - When Jhin kills an enemy champion a Lotus Trap will spawn and detonate where they were killed.

R: Curtain Call Jhin channels, transforming Whisper into a shoulder-mounted mega-cannon. It is able to fire 4 super shots at extreme range that pierce through minions and monsters, but stop on the first champion impacted. Whisper cripples enemies hit, which slows them and deals execute damage. The 4th shot is perfectly crafted, epically powerful, and guaranteed to critically strike.
Jhin sets up and channels, enabling him to fire 4 super shots at extreme range in a cone in front of him. The shots stop on the first champion hit, slowing it by 80% for 0.75 seconds and dealing 40/100/160 (+20% Attack Damage) physical damage, increased by 2.5% for each 1% health the target is missing (up to 0 (+0)). The 4th shot crits for [0]% damage.

How to use your abilities?

Passive- Whisper- Jhin has got a gun that has only 4 bullets. Thats why his laning phase is so unique. You need to pay attention to how many bullets you have and when to hit with you 4th auto attack. You will be using your 4th AA to last hit or to poke enemies.
Q- Dancing Grenade- This ability you should focus to max at all cost as I mentioned before. You will be using it for last hitting creeps most of the time but also to poke down the enemy ADC or supp in lane. Try to hit your Q with 3 minions nearby and an enemy to deal extra damage to him. Works very well with lehtality runes.

W- Deadly Flourish- This ability is very usefull in starting teamfights or to catch someone. When you or your ally hit an enemy champion with basic auto attack an icon will appear and you can snare him with your . This ability can be used also to steal some objectives but It will take some time for you to use it propely.
E- Captive Audience- This is a very usefull spell if you are afraid of ganks from the enemy jungler. Just try to put it in the most common places and you will notice fast enough when the enemy jungler in approaching for a gank. Also its Beauty in Death passive is very usefull in teamfights. It creates a Lotus Trap in the place of the dead body of the champ you have killed.R- Curtain Call- His ultimate is a very strong ability to secure objectives defend them or to start or finish a teamfight. Use it when the enemy team has got low HP. Like you can easily steal an objective with it.

Farming


Dorans Ring Start:
Jhin has a very unique laning phase. He has only 4 bullets so he needs to use his abilities to farm creeps. If u want only to farm u might like going first Dorans Ring Dorans Ring. It will give you a lot of mana so you will be able to use and . When the mid-game comes in just sell the dorans ring as it will no longer be usefull if you have 2 or 3 items already.

Long Sword Start:
You want to do this if you want to have a good sustain and stay very long on lane. It also helps if you have an agressive support like Thresh to get some kills early and then snowball the game. With Dorans Ring you dont have that much of dmg early.

How To Farm?
You use your passive to hit minions and then you use the 4th shot to last hit or to poke down the enemy ADC or the supp if it is a squishy one. You also use your to farm or try to last hit minions in order to poke the enemies.
You just need to remember that you only have 4 bullets.

Items

Lethality: When you build Lethality you want to rush youmuus ghostblade Youmuus Ghostblade. Then you build Duskblade. It got nerfed but It is still a good choice.
If the have a tank Mortal Reminder is a good idea. Other good items that are good with this build are: Infinity Edge Rapid Firecannon Statikk Shiv or something for Life Steal like Deaths Dance Deaths Dance as the last item. If the have someone like Syndra you want to buy Guardian Angel and then you wont die instantly if she will try to do her combo at you.

Crit: Going this path is good if the enemy team has more than 2 or 3 tanks. You just want to have all the crit items like Essence Reaver and the items that i mentioned in the Lethality build.

Summary

So thats all! I think i will update this guide when Riot will patch the game so I will post the updates as soon as the patch comes out and I play Jhin on my own. I hope you liked my guide to the Virtuoso as it is my first ever guide to a champion. Feel free to comment and tell me what could I do to make this Guide better for you. Matchups with other ADCs coming soon.

UPDATE:

Patch 7.21:
-Nerfs on Ardent Censer makes him more powerful on botlane.
-Therefore you could play him at midlane (you can still of course).
- Wait for new rune system to come up.

Patch 8.8:
-Going with the runes i showed above with Fleet Footwork as main keystone and second tree sorcery with celerity and gathering storm.
-Guinsoo Rageblade is INSANELY GOOD ON JHIN right now so spam it a lot if you can as 4Th item.
