I lost all faith in riots balance philosophy,until Jhin came

I mean broken left,broken right its broken everywhere and anywhere

I really started to hate the game and well....dislike it as much as I try to see positives within

BUT when Jhin was announced i tested him and for once Riot managed to make a champion with equal power in balance,health and counterplay

Lets see He has mobility but not one of those BS amounts of mobility creep rather Jhin has a simple ms boost to help him kite(and when reloading)

He has 2 skill shots all with a small delay and decent travel time his E is unreliable and can only be landed if you W someone

His passive is what i love about him,it is the center of most counterplay in his kit simply by exhausting,frozen heart,other kinds of slows and attack speed slows will weaken his passive

But yet he still has great burst and power and just open to assassins that come his way while dealing = dmg to his targets with his Final act(shot)

And manages to fit his theme as this Psychotic artist-criminal with blank clothes ready to be made beautiful

Isn't his passive bugged where AS slows didn't actually affect his AD?

Jhin is supposed to be unique that way. Items like Frozen Heart and Frozen Mallet aren't supposed to decrease his AD because he already has a fixed AS.

Sigh* thats because the slow doesn't apply to the AS IT APPLIES TO HIS AD NOT AS

actually one of the reds said that it was suppose to reduce his AD in the same way that it'd normally lower someone's AS, except his is locked.

Your faith and opinions are irrelevant. If we look at your approach to playing the game, it's really clear that you do not understand it. Your ranked stats are completely ridiculous. You are in bronze and the reason why is really obvious-- absolutely zero clue as to how to play the game. You have like 100 games, but no more than 6 on any one champion. What the fuck are you doing? Do you even understand anything about the game?

Just complete junk. Your opinions are worthless. Jhin is currently garbage. The one person in the pro scene who plays him constantly can't even break a 50% win ratio when he can queue with an LCS level team against randoms. That's how bad Jhin is.

Jhin has many huge problems with his kit and his design. Yes, he is FUN AS FUCK. He is really fun to play. But his kit is complete garbage and he is totally sub-standard and not balanced at all.

But hey, why don't you spend 300 more games clicking random champions and getting bronze and then tell us how you feel about balance?

Anyways I Know what I'm doing by playing this game its probably a phrase you die hard high elo A-holes don't understand its called "fun" don't know if you ever heard of it I like playing many different champions its who i am i can't stick to one role,let alone a fucking champion for to long This means 1.what ever role i get i will appreciate no hate no "i can't play X role" 2.I do understand mechanics,i may not have them but you know practice makes better...thats why i play norms after norms....soon i realised that sticking to role just doesn't work for me 3.I have over 100 games and i don't play ranked a lot,I'm play for fun not tryhard 4.even people who are unranked to silver have a voice on the boards sure they matter less...but still WE HAVE A VOICE

Clicking random champions is half the excitement i don't care if i pick into my own counter...i don't care if i counter pick

People like Vertigal,shaclone and many others enjoy simply 1 champion there heart is into..i can't do that I will spend another 300 games even if it doesn't get me anywhere,because i love league right now ever since Jhin

So fuck of,we all play differently
