Is it just me, or is Jhin too good?

Played Jhin the other day, was my second game Jhin and went 9/3 or something like that, I thought it was pretty stupid.

Anyways, just finished up a game where my bot lane was winning, got some 3 kills before 5 minutes. But suddenly, Jhin goes unstoppable about 4 minutes later...what?

Jhin's damage gets really scary, but he is super weak to the 100-0 assassins.

IF only the 100-0 assassins were not perma banned.

Honestly I am very conflicted on what to think of Jhin and so is the pro scene

Jhins Strengths

-Super strong laneing -Has a toolkit to allow him to do fancy out plays -Super good scaling -Never feels week because of his passive (basically hes strong even when he has no items for his passive allows him to always do damage on the 4th hit)

Weakness -Low mobility -Poor tank stats -No displacement or reliable instant cc abilities (fuse these three together and you have a champ who is easy to target and kill) -A very forced build path for 100 percent crit so you can abuse your passive

Honestly Jhin is this adc who can completely snow ball and take over the game, but if he makes a minor miss play, or if a assasin or someone with lots of burst or hell even some with good dps for example a udyr jumps onto him, hes simply dead. No way to defend himself besides he can ult then snare and hope that is enough to allow him to run away.

Very mixed thoughts on him at the current moment.

Agreed with Flying Buntcake.

Jhin is very strong. The fact that he lacks mobility balances him out. It's really hard to get away from the assassins, especially if the team doesn't do a very good job in protecting him.

Jhin's powerful, but he's flat out immobile and has his reload timer and fixed attack speed. His damage is very inconsistent, but does require a watchful eye. Go in the very moment he unloads his last bullet and he will be defenseless if you can eliminate him.

He has stupid high two item powerspike. He seems a lot more fun and fair if you dont go IE ER. But you do go IE ER. And you wreck.

His ult damage seems a bit out of control.

I cant remember exactly what game it was in the Fnatic vs Vitality series, but Fnatic followed Jihn around the map and wherever he would go they would turret dive him over and over and over, that's how you keep him irrelavent I guess
