Is it just me or does Jhin's Q not feel right?

Like his passive makes everything related to AD make his AD itself go up. Could be better but its fine I see no problems with this passive.

His W makes him shoot everything in a line with his guns. Thematically makes sense as he's a gun-wielding madman who sees beauty when killing.

His E puts down a flower trap that then damages when it explodes. Since everyone (including him) sees flowers as beautiful this also makes sense as its a beautiful way to kill

His R draws out his mega weapon and gives him 4 shots with a rocket launcher.

Then we get to his Q...... His Q is where he throws a bouncing grenade.....How is this related to his kit? There is no beauty in this unless it kills the target (beauty in death), and he's a gun-wielding madman. Not a grenade throwing killer. I don't know his Q just doesn't feel right as he's not using any type of gun and thats not how he kills. He kills with guns and beautiful foliage appears when he kills. The canister is neither of these.

Anyone else feel the same or is it just me?

He's an artist. Why us one tool, when he could use multiple for better effects?

its to give some easier way of last hitting under a tower ; if you haven't played jhin yet you don't know how frustratingly difficult last hitting with him is. his bouncing grenade when maxed is his last hitting tool when combined with lotus trap and or his w; he should be able to clear most waves.

the beauty of the grenade is that it "dances" hence its name and why jhin would use it, its a modified grenade that makes its normal effects perfect by fluttering around like a highly explosive butterfly [slayer-jinx-catface]

it specifically bounces 4 times. Gypsylord confirmed in an interview that Jhin has this obsession with the number 4 because it's the number for death in many cultures: his passive is 4 shots, his q bounces 4 times, his ult shoots 4 times. Jhin isn't so obsessed with beauty as he is with perfection, and he's obsessive about it, which is why it's always the number 4. Not to mention, a sniper would probably carry a grenade in case he needed to make a getaway, just a thought. Plus, he needed good wave clear since there is barely any attack speed of which to speak. So it does make sense, i'll give you that it's a bit of a weird choice but Jhin is a very strange man, a psychopath, so not everything about him should make sense to everyone
