I find Jihn's design to be extremely... "Eh".

Disclaimer, I'm talking about the character exclusively in his easthetics, idgaf about his kit at the moment.

I won't lie, I was pretty intrigued at the teasers, little reveals and all that, I wanted to know what was the deal with this guy... And then he gets fully revealed and is yet another guy with a gun, so my reaction isn't good or bad, just... "Eh". It's almost as if someone at Riot was watching Phantom of the Opera while cleaning a BB gun, then said "Eureka!" and went to design it. (hue)

Give us something else, damn it, I dunno, there are MANY little corners in LoL's lore which you can further develop instead of giving guns or bows to ADC's. You could have easily gave him somethingsomething a demonic Violin for his same kit, and instead of 4 bullets it could have been a string breaking with each shot, which would be oddly familiar with Sona's Etwahl, and you could develop what's the deal with these killer string instruments.

I dunno, I'm mostly ranting, I guess I can't fall in love with each character's design (for example, mad props on Kindred), so this is mostly just my opinion and sour grapes.

well its kind of hard to come up with a unique ideas, even that "herath" thingy (I hope I pronounce right) you have to pick up the buff which is not original, it came from dota 2. well League Of Legends" came from dota 2 because a pack of people decide to create a whole new game. but came with an idea is like trying to eat while you full

I'm going to be honest, when I saw that leaked ability I was like "What the fuck, he looks retarded." However, I saw the full animation and honestly, it's pretty dope. He does an extremely overly dramatic twirl and then fires, like my opinion went from "He's Trash" to "Augh, he's so cool." I guess what I meant to say, to each their own.
