As a former Jinx main, Jhin feels better in every field for me.

It's not asking for buffs/nerfs, it's just my personal view that they're quite similar in their playstyle, yet it feels like Jinx is lacking some currently. Does anyone agree? And don't bother listing Jinx strengths, I know them too well, it's just that she doesn't have as much as Jhin does.

You know what she has? ATTACK SPEED, and a lot of it.

Jhin is pretty trash imo. Think Jinx is stronger.

Does anyone agree?

After playing Jhin and playing against him: not really.

Jinx's wave-clear is better. Jinx's tower shredding potential is substantially better. Jinx's ultimate is also global rather than just long-ranged. Jinx's AA range is longer than 550 (with rockets). Jinx has better late-game scaling. Dem crits, dat AS. Also hurricane rocket death-volleys.

Considering CSing is really important with marksman and shredding towers is one of the major reasons you need a marksman in your team: not seeing Jhin as better in every field. Jinx beats him in a lot of important categories.

Jhin's Traps are pretty dope though, and his trap+Snare combo is surprisingly fluid and easy to pull off. Due to my fail kiting skills I at least don't like a total moron trying to kite with him either, but Jhin's traps are the only thing I'd say he wins hands-down with over Jinx, a lot of his other stuff is debatable, and Jinx wins in a lot of core strengths concerning marksman/ADCs.
