Jhin wasn't what I expected him to be at all

I thought Riot was going to release the most jaw dropping champion to start the 2016 year but as I looked at his skills all I thought of was Ekko Caitlyn Graves Xerath Sona combined together.

I'll still say that he is a pretty cool champion but his kit wasn't what makes him cool.

Visually he is "ok" the only thing that bothers me most is that white cloth he wears around.

In game it looks blocky and awkward but in the splash art it looks smooth and swift.

And if you're wondering how those champions that I mentioned is related to Jhin's kit, I'll go in depth.

Ekko - Similar passive where they get a boost movement speed for a certain amount of hits.

Caitlyn - Traps and long range sniper. ( I was hoping Jhin would be super different from caitlyn's kit :/)

Graves - that little smoke grenade, except Jihn has it bouncing around and inflicting damage.

Xerath - the over exaggerated range from his skills

Sona - The tunes that play during his ult.

All this, into one champion.

Visually he is disappointing tbh.

His kit seems passable because with so many champions in the game there are bound to be similarities with his skills.

He seems like he might be a better Caitlyn, but we're going to have to wait and see his numbers.

Caitlyn seems like she would be a much safer choice though.

He is covering his generator for his gun. When he ults he pulls it off and its quite cool.

It's a poncho, not a cape. And that shoulder generator might look cool during his ult, but it looks stupid af every any other time. Terrible design. And what happened to him being a sniper?

He comes off looking like some scrapped One Piece concept art with those lanky ass limbs. Like, are you all out of ideas Rito?
