Could Jhin possibly craft a wind infused bullet with his magic?

Are you perhaps trying to imply that he is the true culprit of Yasuo's lore instead of Riven? Wind or not, a bullet wound would of course be distinct from a blade wound, BUT its only revealed that it was merely a wind technique that did it without disclosing the actual type of wound that was made so it could be possible :D Though Yasuo doesn't use a gun so he couldn't be mistaken as a killer with a weapon he doesnt use unless it was similar to his own.

Of course one must remember what Jhin's primary weapons were before he had Whisper to rely on.

Hm...

As far as i recall it was never mentioned in the story about what weapon(s) he was using before Zed and company apprehended him, but feel free to correct me on that. Regardless, ifi do remember correctly though Jhin was incarcerated at the time of the Ionia-Noxus clash and was released afterwards to help trim the rising power struggles and imbalances that were after effects of the war. Blade or not he was in jail at the time the elder was killed during the war supposedly.

WAAARGHbobo, Jhin's principle writer, already confirmed it, but here's a passage from Jhin's lore that also does:

The scale and precision of the new device made his previous work with blades seem insignificant by comparison. Understanding firearm mechanics had taken him weeks of study, but evolving his chi techniques from blades had taken months.

High Noon Yasuo uses a gun. Maybe Yasuo used a gun so it didn't look like him.

Jhin's been noted as extremely talented with magic and blacksmithing (psychopaths tend to be talented in various areas), so if magic in Runeterra/LoL lore allows it then why not? He infuses his last shot with magic for that extra damage.

This talk of magical munitions reminds me of RWBY...

But in thoery, but we dont know how the magic works so we wouldnt even know what it would do. How do you get a bullet to do a specific thing you want while infusing it?

Magic is strange.

His gun is magic. He also crafts his own bullets, the magic he puts in them transforms the victims flesh. Thats how his magic works. He also implied hi put his ki techniques in his shots also. Surely he can make one that mimics wind.

Right but how does he know what effect it will form?

He can do it I know, just how would be the interesting bit to me.

I do remember reading somewere that he craft many bullets, all with different effects, so he probably has crafted one with wind effect already.

I think the question is related to Yasuo's elder, but even when it would be cool, the times don't match so it shouldnt be a posibility

Maybe I'm a little confused at the timings behind things, but wasn't Jhin captured pre-Noxian Invasion and released post-Noxian Invasion? I don't think he could have gone around killing people if he was in prison.

Jhin was in prison, while the war happened... they ddnt release him til after...

The question is if this really adds up in terms of timeline.

Jhins lore doesn't mention the noxian invasion,which makes it sound like he was captured before it even began. And it seems likely that he was released pretty late in the invasion.

So the question is if Jhin was still in prison when the elder was killed or if he was already out.

GenoXxJun 6, 20161 votes

It does mention the invasion. It happened outside his prison

GreenLoreJun 6, 20161 votes

Ah forgot about that.

Still the question remains if Jhin was released before or after the elder got killed,as his lore doesn't say that the invasion ended yet,though it says that they released him to counter the growing power of the ninja and wuju swordsmen,implying that the noxian invasion wasn't ionias biggest problem anymore.
