A Simple Solution to Jhin's Overbearing Movement Speed.

Limit the movement speed bonus from attack speed to permanent increases only.

Put simply, he wouldn't gain additional movement speed from having hail of blades or lethal tempo active, without nerfing movement speed rewards from building attack speed items.

but is it honestly a problem?

In my opinion, it is.

Hail of blades gives him attack speed bonus of 2-4 attack speed items, and is available from level 1. His passive was previously balanced without him having access to such high attack speed with runes/masteries.

He should be rewarded for building attack speed, not picking a keystone.

Fair enough.

Yes it is lmao.

You can't engage on jhin because he shoots you and runs away with sonic movespeed,and you can't run from him because he guns you down with sonic movespeed. Stormrazor and hail of blades break jhin

that would hurt other jhin builds too much. the problem is stormrazor and hail of blades synergy. Stormrazor gives ms when u crit, jihn gains ms when he crits, stormrazor and hail of blades increase his AS so his scaling is so high just at 1 item. Then he could get swift boots and be slow immune, while increasing all the %movespeed.

Or, we could just lower his attack speed to movement speed conversion scaling a bit?

That would certainly fix the interaction but I think Hail of Blades just needs to be removed as a whole. It's only good on Jhin and bad on everyone else. There's no sense keeping it around.
