Sheen items on Jhin?

LeBoosted·Sep 4, 2016·1 votes·1,530 views

Jhin scales very well with ad and uses his q in a lot of his combos, so why not build sheen on him? any reasons why this isnt good? Thanks ^.^

It's because Jhin blows his skills in about 1 second.

So like imagine this

Jhin is fighting someone. Jhins combo is Auto-q-auto-w Or Auto-q-w-Auto

In the time it takes to do his whole combo, you will only proc sheen once for an extra 80 ad ( if you built iceborn ) If you went triforce you'd have an extra (200 ish? )

So instead of having ( lets take the best case scenario and say triforce ) a ghostblade which with ONLY the armor pen ( the 20 armor pen passive ) will add more damage to that Auto-q-w-auto then one sheen proc

get it?

Also how would you proc sheen on jhins ult? Hes better off with raw damage instead for his ult since the sheen wont do anything.

Now if you're talking Lucian. It can work on him because his dash and Q have virtually no CD and hes always up close to auto you

It also works on draven if you have item 3508 due to his W resetting on catching axes. and getting the bonus movement from Passive - Rage is nice.

Sheen items are only good on champs that can proc it over and over basically on cooldown. Jhin does not have an ability that is spammable enough for it to synergize with his kit very well.
