I'm really scared of Jhin's position in the game, but i can't wait to try out

Pros

  • Absurd burst damage (750 AD)
  • Badass long range skillshots (true sniper)
  • Teemo's shrooms (with less hate)

Cons

  • He has no mobility (favorite kitty toy)
  • Most of his spells roots him (long animations)
  • He can't scale with atk speed (masteries/runes only)

With this in mind, i can't take him botlane because i'll get destroyed by fast peaced adcs like Vayne or Lucian. On late game, if Rengar is still at this state when Jhin comes out, he will need as much protection as Kog would need, but have yet to see the numbers of his kit. I somehow hope that he has some AP ratios so that he can scale on magic damage and go mid (AP Kog !). I don't know if he would scale well with lifesteal, but what about Death's Dance ?

Can't wait to try out this on him, because with his crazy AD ratios, he might regen like a retard on this while ultying. I've yet to see what pros think about his kit in tournaments, what is your guess on that ? This champion makes me really want to have a sandbox mode for tests !

Based on the reveal he's actually very short ranged outside his abilities.

Yeah but as an assassin you kinda have to get close to kill him anyway.

As an assassin you'll probably have time to kill him before he gets that fourth auto off (the one that really hurts). The others will mostly feel like low damage crits based on his numbers.

Which stats?

Things like "750 AD" and "Crazy AD ratios".

Ah yes that's been stated by the creator Gypsylord on reddit. He even stated he got to 1000 AD with AP Janna shielding him !

They always overtune champs on purpose for the sake of $$. So real balance will come in the patch after or two. (Maybe)
