He needs a valentine's day skin entitled "NaughtyLust". This needs to happen. I am sure you all will agree.

What is the connection Between Sona,Vi,Zed,Garen and Jhin? we know he detests sona for being an artist like him and he hates zed for locking him up but what about Garen and Vi?

Will Jhin be OP on release then nerfed to a little bit less op next patch like every other recent champ?

gafratt2 votes

Except illaoi

Myrkrvaldyr3 votes

Jhin ain't op, he's full of weaknesses, for once, I'm glad that riot actually released a balanced champ. The only thing I could mildly complain about is the numbers in his passive might be a bit high, but other than that he's fine.

Tahm Kench was balanced when they released him on the game.

Cryptic MrChimes2 votes

In fact, if memory serves me correctly he was getting buffs after his release.

Just fought a Jihn and had Jihn on my team... he's probably the first released champion that isn't OP on release. He's got a lot of flaws especially if no one has his back in team fights. An easy guy to target, but if well surrounded- he's powerful and can stun you for days.

how did you manage to make it that jhin crashes the entire NA server

Myrkrvaldyr1 votes

I'm wondering the same, everything froze, everyone kicked out, I even had a 20 mins q for logging in xD.

leaguewut2 votes

funny enough, living close to the servers meant that I wasn't kicked out during the whole exchange

didn't even ping spike, just watched 3 of my teammates walk back and only 2 on the other team :-/

Is Jhin very old, or he's a young man, why is his right arm robot arm, and why is he wearing a mask over the mask inside (btw why is he not revealing his face?)?

Why is one of jhin shoulder is higher than his other shoulder?

Tyliron5 votes

The big shoulder is where Jhin has his ammo for his Gauss rifle. (the ultimate)

So i have a question about Jhin's bundle price up in store right now... In the Illaoi relase, her bundle contained both the champ (975 RP) and skin(1350 RP), but the price for the bundle was at 1450-ish... why is it that JHIN'S BUNDLE IS AT 1837?!?!?! honestly, that's just so unfair...

BottleCapster5 votes

Its due to a change in sale policy. 1350 skins no longer go on sale the week of their release, but instead a few weeks down the line. Because of this, his bundle is factoring in the full 1350, and not a discounted 975 like usual

Can we please agree to NOT make any more on-hit kits. It's literally killing the game at this point. Let's try something more original, like "On unit kill", "On enem(y/ies) afflicted by these status effects (slow/snare/stun/blind/knock-up), "While under the status effect of___", "When at (full/70%/less than XX%) health", "When at (Full/50%/30%) mana"

There's so many possibilities that haven't been touched, yet Riot is continually recycling kits and calling it "New" champions.

I'd like to start off by saying thanks a bunch Riot for such an intriguing champion! Here are some questions I've had...

What happened to Jhin that caused him to receive his cybernetic body parts? Who outfitted him with these?

Why specific were the three champions (other than Zed) chosen specifically? Will Jhin have any future reaction with them?

Why wasn't Shen included in Jhin's teasers along with Zed?

HylianH2002 votes

Hi! You guys said in the insights page that you had planned for Jhin to be a serial killer from the beginning, but when did the "theatre" aspects of his personality come into play? Who suggested it? Why?

NightmareBeyond2 votes

Jhin's thing has 4 bullets, and the champion spotlight says that his favorite number is 4. I remember from TV that 4 is unlucky in asian (I wanna say japanese, but I don't remember if it was maybe china or somewhere else) culture, the number 4 is unlucky because its pronunciation is similar to their word for death. I can't think of a way to phrase this as a question, but I guess I'm trying to ask, "did you do all that stuff on purpose?"... cuz his 4th bullet kills things... and 4 is like death... Am I overexplaining this? I'll shut up now
