Infinity Edge Stacking

Most Jhin builds I see tend to look exactly like this...

Like... Why is this allowed to work so flawlessly? He gains nothing extra but raw stats and gives nothing extra. Runes make up for all of the lifesteal and survivability he misses out on by not buying other items. And no other build gives him as much damage as the IE stacking.

My Suggestion? Make Infinity Edge's 25% crit chance a UNIQUE Passive. This will still leave it viable for every adc, but remove Jhin's abuse of the item.

No, I like building 5 IEs on Garen. It makes for a quality meme.

Wouldnt it be smartest to build item 3031 item 3094 item 3508 item 3072 item 3009 ? you only need 100% crit so bloodthirster > ie nr 3. The reason i pick er is mainly cdr. two ie for lots of ad and crit. as is almost unnecessary on jhin so rapid should be enough

In all honesty, I love playing Caitlyn like an actual sniper. She's a SNIPER, I hate building attack speed on her. If they keep her obvious playstyle with this kind of damage, I'm okay with them nerfing IE for everyone else.

I’m pretty sure IE unique passive is 25% more Crit Damage.

For jhin it makes sense cause he doesn't really get too many bonuses from attack speed. He is better off with the bonus AD from crit and Infinity edge is the only item with offers both AD and Crit.

It's not really flawless you get jumped and your pretty much dead. All this build does is it allows Jhin to get more damage early on into the game. But you end up sacrificing a lot of MS that you'd get from your passive since your not building AS.
