Predictions on how "Jihn, The Deadeye" works and kind of what he is lore wise.
So with Jihn's arrival all but confirmed and me not seeing any posts on these forums on this topic (I don't look through Reddit), I would like to take the time to make predictions on what he does and a bit on what he IS.
What is he? Despite popular opinion and what his name suggests I don't think he's based on Arabic mythology's Djinn and he doesn't shoot magic bullets or lightning or whatever out of his fingers like I've been seeing. Why you ask? Because shooting like that screams mage not adc, also it would be kinda boring and plain to see another magic being shooting crap out of their appendages. Unless of course, they made him or an academy skin that looks exactly like this guy. Now what I think he is, is a Zaun-connected sniper rifle expert with hex-tech augments (his eye(s) specifically being one of the augments he has, hence the title "Deadeye" ). I justify this because in all the teasers we've had we hear a thunderous gunshot that takes out everyone and all the bullet wounds turning into light shows. Now this could just be colorful censoring and that would be completely understandable, however I would like to think it's because all the attacks are done by laser-like attacks that do different things based on the color of energy/ammo/etc. This leads me to my main purpose of this post:
What does he do? IMO his description would be a long range immobile caster marksmen that has a lot of CC and/or debuffs. Again the justification of this comes from the teasers and how everyone is shot. Now you could say that Jihn is just able to find weak spots on a champion and do more damage when he does but that would be boring and wouldn't offer anything new. So assuming the teasers are canon he has a blind, a silence.... either armor shred or armor pen.... and a disarming debuff.... all while being long ranged... Someone insert a "mother of god" meme here please. But I might have figured out how this could work.
How does he work?
Starting off with the auto-attacks I HIGHLY doubt they want to make a 
2.0 I believe he will shoot differently then her.
- He will run on an ammo mechanic similar to
but with a bit more ammo and the ammo being tied to some or all of his abilities. - His auto attack pattern will be something similar
Q or 
R and go through multiple targets in a line.
Abilities Going back to the ammo mechanic I theorize that each time you proc one of the debuffs it will augment or swap out the next bullet for a special bullet that corresponds to said debuff (possibly causing your auto attacks to fire differently). Now I'm not sure whether or not each debuff depicted on all the teasers represent a different skill. If this IS the case then Jihn could feasibly shut down 4 people almost at the same time so I'm hoping there is some kind of restriction or all the debuffs are thrown into one or two skills that you have to choose in some way.
Anyway that's all I have gathered, how wrong do you guys think I am? We'll see in the next couple of days I imagine.
EDIT: While I say Jihn is likely a sniper rifle expert he could also be using this as a weapon and most of my theory would work.
