Please nerf Jhin.

Jhin can literally 100-0 you at level 1 alone, 0 help from his support. Autos you three times, Qs you, and then kills you on the spot with his fourth shot. The only counterplay to this is blowing all your summs at which point he'll do this again in 5 seconds and this time you wont have your spells so you just die. And this is just WITH NO HELP FROM HIS SUPPORT. His support, in reality, will actually be helping and you'll die immediately.

And when he hits level 6? He can literally 80-0 a squishy with his ult if he has a item 3134.

When he gets duskblade at literally level 8? One auto + W + Fourth shot and you die.

Lategame? Q+Fourth shot will kill you instantly. You have no way of living if you arent a huge tank.

"B.. b.. but hes immobile and squishy himself"

Doesnt matter. He will blow up everything that comes near him, and you can make that argument for half the champions in LoL.

"B... b... but you can CC him."

item 3140>item 3139 item 3814.

Both are common buys for him. No you cant. And once again, you can make that argument for pretty much every champion in LoL.

"B... b... but you can just buy armor."

If youre a carry then 75% of the time buying armor means going out of your build path to do so. Also, now he can penetrate 35% of bonus armor IN ADDITION to 54 flat armor pen from lethality, not even counting the possible runes and masteries he could have. (And for a third time, you can make that argument for half the champions in LoL.)

Seriously. Nerf Jhin. I cant say it in any more ways.

Where in my post did i say i was willing to fight Jhin?

No. Hes going to charge at me with his free ms boosts and bs while i can either trade back and die, or die and not do shit about it.

Yes because jhin has his ms boost at level 1 while having 4 shots

he gets it on the 4th shot. its actually very difficult to trade with jhin 4th shot because 1) does a lot of damage and 2) (this is the kicker) he gets MS per crit and since 4th is guaranteed crit he gets to either continue engaging OR "kite" back. same goes for his W

But op said that level 1 jhin charges you with Ms boost while having 4 shots and q which is impossible

NodirjonSattarov1 votes

i'm sure he's exaggerating. i know for a fact that 4 shots + q is enough to make you back and lose 1 level and 3 waves

And you don't have an excuse to be in a position to be hit by all four of his autos and a Q that kills all 3 minions first that early.

Jhin can literally 100-0 you at level 1 alone, 0 help from his support. Autos you three times, Qs you, and then kills you on the spot with his fourth shot.

So you are stupid and you just let him auto you at level 1? ??????

And when he hits level 6? He can literally 80-0 a squishy with his ult if he has a item 3134.

Learn to dodge. Especially after the nerf like 3-4 months ago which reduced the duration of his slow by 50%, so follow-up shots aren't super easy to hit.

When he gets duskblade at literally level 8? One auto + W + Fourth shot and you die.

Don't stand near brushes so he can't reactivate the damage proc. Or ward said brush. Adjust your playstyle to it.

Lategame? Q+Fourth shot will kill you instantly. You have no way of living if you arent a huge tank.

I mean, if you are stupid enough to fight him like that, you deserve to die. If you let him run up to you and let him Q+4th, it's your fault. That's like trying to run through Caitlyn traps. You will get smashed by those.

"B... b... but you can CC him."; item 3140 item 3139 item 3814.; Both are common buys for him. No you cant. And once again, you can make that argument for pretty much every champion in LoL.

Jhin only buys QSS into Merc Scimitar. And if you caught Jhin and forced him to QSS, chances are he is going to play a lot more safe for the next minute. Again, your fault. You can CC Jhin and it's not that hard.

"B... b... but you can just buy armor."

item 3047 and you almost ignore 2 Lethality items (you lose 6 armor).

Also, now he can penetrate 35% of bonus armor IN ADDITION to 54 flat armor pen from lethality, not even counting the possible runes and masteries he could have. (And for a third time, you can make that argument for half the champions in LoL.)

Again, good Jhin player won't build item 3814, because it's not worth it. Also, that's Jhin's role. He is THE anti-squishy marksman. Put a tank in front of him and he will struggle super hard.

Seriously. Nerf Jhin. I cant say it in any more ways.

Jhin was in the most balanced spot he propably ever was in 7.13. Lethality changes helped him, but tanks showing up in 3 roles (top, jungle, support) make his life quite hard, because he doesn't have sustained damage to deal with armored targets.

TL;DR: You can't play against Jhin. Simple as that. Learn him yourself/ban him.
