Is Jhin sh*tty or is everyone just awful at using him?

Rico Nasty··3 votes·492 views

I have not seen a Jhin do well at all, every time someone picks Jhin I just groan because I know they'll do bad. I don't think there's anything objectively wrong with his kit. However he just seems so subpar. Or does he just suffer from Syndra syndrome (Syndrame? I'll see myself to the door) where he has potential to be great, but everyone doesn't know how to use him? Legitimate question.

jhin has very strong damage but people have difficulty with the 4 shot mechanic

Jhin is terrifying when played correctly, but in the wrong hands he can be useless and insta-bursted.

Yeah people still don't know how to play him. I cringe every time I see someone start rush IE instead of ER.

Plus, he can suffer a lot if communication is lacking, which in Solo Q, is most of the goddamn time.

Jhin gets really scary late game. Like you force Baron and he sets traps in the jungle pathways and the enemy gets caught easily. Then his autos at full build pretty much 1 shot the enemy squishies.

He seems pretty straightforward to play (i bought him a couple days ago and did a couple bot Games), but there are definitely some unique mechanics and learning curves. His ultimate was a lot harder to hit than i expected. His q seemed delayed. His reloading can make or break a fight.

I wouldn't say he's useless. Pretty sure he saw pro play recently. He's also got decent stats in solo, actuality dynamic, queue.

jhin is team dependent, whenever I see a jhin do good his support isnt some shitter
