I like how when Jhin was FOTM everybody wanted him nerfed into the ground

Yet this guy Twitch has hovered at 53% win rate for 5 patches straight and no one gives a fuck.

And don't get me started on Lucian.

So I have to ask, what IS a balanced win rate to you guys? Did you just hate Jhin cause everyone was playing him?

Everyone just dislikes Jhin because of Lethality.

Jhin can still be a great late game carry but takes awhile now to get items especially in a game where late game doesn't exist anymore.

because jhin nerfs were huge right? the slow on his ult was reduced. big deal. it was about time. he had the highest playrate/winrate combination and also high pickrate in pro play for a straight year

jhin felt more urgent to address to more players thats all

people still want twitch and lucian nerfs

even kog maw needs nerfs TBH he goes under the radar because late game hurrdurrcarry but you will claw ur eyeballs out once he gets 3 items

Honestly id rather Lee and Ahri get nerfs first they been overpowered for seasons already

It's not so much the win rate as it was that he was keeping a 53% win rate while also getting picked in half of ALL games.

The only reason Ahri has stayed strong for so long is cause every other strong midlane character got nerfed continuously or was more viable as a mage support. She doesn't even really hard counter anything and it's just cool to bitch about Ahri right now.

No, it was because of her Q and E change long ago

Jhin was chosen by the evil force of Circle Jerk, That's it. Barely you'll see anything that makes sense on ''Gameplay'' section of the boards, It's for QQ now only.

Twitch has been OP for months now. He's been the best crit adc for months as well, and no one talks about it for some reason. He doesn't even have a weakness, his early game isn't Lucian level, but its far better than Jinx. Yet his late game is still better than hers with his Invisibility and ult range.

Play rate, my friend. If you don't see a champion in your games, you don't ask for nerfs on them. I don't even remember the last non-ARAM game I played where there was a Twitch.

The boards gives 0 fucks about what's actually balanced and what's actually unbalanced. Still fun to point it out though amirite?

It's all because of psychological "fairness".

A Jhin one-shotting half your health just because you walked in range for a split second, then not being able to retaliate because he zooms away with his incredible movement speed buff often times feels less fair than Twitch's power scenario where he will sneak up next to you, throw down his poison and slam 3-5 arrows in your chest then blow you up. Why? Because Twitch actually has to sit there to deal the damage, and you think to yourself "damn if I was more attentive I could have come out alive from that" or "if I just had a stun I would have been able to walk away!" The counterplay scenarios you can make in your head are a lot feasible than in Jhin's scenario, in which you would essentially just have to all-in him really hard and kill him before he can deal serious damage to you.

Feels real fair getting melted from 800 range away with my tank in front of me.

If that's how you feel, then that's fine.

Just trying to explain why people complain.

It's the same reason why people complain or complained about all these champs throughout the years

Jhin was a problem because he could engage a teamfight from the FoW even when behind thanks to his ridiculous amounts of utility while also being a massive lane bully
