So, both these champs,
and
are pretty good, but aren't being noticed that much by the pros. (Except with sneaky and Jhin.) Please post your thoughts on this, I'm curious to see what the community thinks!

Illaoi is a fun syphoner. I don't play league to play soul wack-a-mole for 30 seconds.
I have no impression of Jhin yet except that his ult is the sexiest thing I've seen come from Riot in ages.
Jhin needs too much protection to really queue solo and is too severely gated by his general slowness.
Illaoi punishes and excels against idiots and is worthless against anyone who is smart enough to kill tentacles and disengage when she ults instead of standing there fighting in the middle of the tentacles like a nubile anime schoolgirl.
Illaoi is not 'pretty good', I'd say she's closer to 'kinda bad' and bad in a way that especially hurts her in high level and organized play.
Jhin has a good toolkit but suffers from the fact he is very easy to get ontop of and kill, his reload time is also very punishing and a nuisance, unlike graves who can scale his reload with attack speed. His traps also have a laughable slow that arguably does nothing.
Illaoi suffers from how easy she is to counter play in top lane and in team fights, if she ults, you walk out of it, no problem, her ult is only effective if you can cc the team to stay inside it, personally I believe Jarvan + Illaoi can do some pretty insane wombo combos, and I look forward to seeing someone attempt it.
Suport Illaoi is also really good for lane bullying and is arguebly better then Illaoi top, but now you just lost a lot of cc, as your top laner mandatory has to play utility.
I like illaoi. it's fun smashing people to bits. and being able to 2v1 with chances being in your favor.
Funny thing is, I just wanted some people to talk to while I waited for league to load. Your all good guys. GLHF out there.
What the pros do never effects me.
If a pro tells me that Jhin or Illoai are trash tier, Imma still play them, because they're fun as shit.
Honestly, I feel like is under power. don't fit in hardly any team comps. is a tank that does damage. The Pro's can easily counter illaoi by items. That why illaoi isnt play much in higher elo. Jhin on the other hand, People are still learning him. Honestly I feel like is under powered till he get BF
