Jhin = Jhinie? (Genie) I'll escort myself out of my room right now. I can make Jhin become Jhinie but GRAVES STILL CAN'T HAVE HIS CIGAR. #ReportRito2k16

I get that Jhin is an artist but, everything he does is in sets of 4. 4 is not a perfect number. 6 is a perfect number. So if you want perfection change all his abilities to 3. 3 passive proc, 3 jump Q, 3 shot R etc. :) But then again he is a psychopath.

I LOVE the detail (this podcast is about Jhin, mainly.. while the last one was about Darshan)put into these podcasts. It's awesome to hear, from an experienced person, how a champion so unique as Jhin was created. Keep it up guys! And, i know this sounds lazy on my part.. however, i would really, really like to have the "highlights" from these podcasts posted somewhere so if myself or someone else misses 1 thing or 2 things, we could just click on a button that says, "Missed Episode X or Y? Click here and check out the highlights for that specific episode!"

Riot, that would be awesome.

Nonetheless, these podcasts are awesome. A bit long IMO (40ish minutes would be easier to get through when you juggle work and school, while having young children.
