Jhin Attack Speed Abuse

Hey there Riot. Why would you make a champ scale AD off of attack/move speed? There are so many runes and items that give this guy extra AD that no other champ can access? Even if it isn't OP (I think it is), it must make balancing a bitch. Oh let's buff zeal/hail of blades/ berserker greaves... Oh wait Jhin would abuse it, nvm.

Because he sacrifices dps for the shot. He isn’t a tank shredder so he loses out there too. And it’s crit and attack speed that feed into his ad, not movement speed.

It creates interesting strategic interactions. Like this is a champ who can power up his abilities with things that only affect autoattacks for most champs.

he's pretty bad, but at least he has to work for it. have you ever seen a caitlyn afk farm for 10 minutes, get a stormrazer (and she's killer with it) and set a trap under you so that every time you step on it you take 70% of your health in one auto because her passive scalings and stormrazer synnergy are so ridiculous?

that's true cancer.

with how slow jhin attacks? he actually has lower dps than other carries even with all that ad. now look at yi, who does jhin's fourth bullet damage every auto, on all of his autos, he crits for 1500+, without critting, because fuck you free base damages and steroids upon steroids.
