Stop picking DFT on Jhin, pick Thunderlords instead

yet the mastery set up with a win % of 61.37% has Jhin taking DFT

Thats based on 145 games lol. Dont use champion.gg for masteries. Make any change to one of the less important masteries and it registers as a completely new setup

ok even on the other majority used mastery ... they still take DFT

the only difference in the two is taking lifesteal vs scaling ad/ap

why don't you try something new first, than blindly sheep-follow on beaten track?

Why waste time doing something already known to be worse than your current way?

It is far more efficient to go DFT over TLD because procing TLD is much harder to do on Jhin with his slow attack speed and his abilities are not easy for hitting targets consistently enough. Q is random, W is thin and easily dodged, E will never hit unless target is under hard CC on top of it, Ult maybe, but can be blocked by multiple champions thus denying TLD.

DFT however, massive scaling damage with Jhin. That alone is worth it. All of your abilities now have a strong DOT. 60% bonus AD is massive since Jhin can reach 700 AD or more sometimes. TLD only has a 30% scaling and a somewhat long CD timer.

You'll wait at least 40 minutes in the game before you start doing more damage with DFT than Thunderlords.

And it's also about flat penetrations too now.

LOL nope. Leathality (old flat AR Pen) scales with enemy level so it too is not as effective at early levels. TLD is an alternative, but DFT is superior in most, if not all, situations.
