The genius behind Jhin's kit / theme

TheDevice··6 votes·1,000 views

I think people really miss the hidden genius behind Jhin's theme/kit design.

He's sortof putting on a show. When they show his ult he's hitting somebody who's in the fog of war but your team has vision of them. Its like the enemy is on a stage with a spotlight on them while both teams are the audience. So killing them from that distance while your team is watching is supper fitting to his theme. This is also why true sight is such a major part of his kit.

His traps are meant to be set near objectives and areas where your team is not normally frequenting. This means when an enemy springs a trap they are then visible to your team, and when jhin starts his "show"., firing his long range snare and then ulting them.

I don't think he is springing into his ult after a simple E>W is he? I haven't played him or seen him played yet, but if he packs that much punch then we might have an issue lol.

E>W >Ult will almost kill anyone lol, his damage is insane.

Yes, an average Jhin (late game) will kill an enemy with E, W, and R. A note that every single one of these abilities can miss, especially the E.

ohhhh boy. Kinda makes sense though. His kit looks pretty shitty so you gotta make him hit hard I guess.

Cass can kill someone late game with two Es.

Your move.

You are on your own little island with that thinking.

Yeah Jhin seems cool, it just sucks they had to take such a thematic dump all over Caitlyn.
