I know im late for the Jhin Q&A, but riot something is bugging me about this champion and I love this champion but I really just have a few questions about him and his lore. If you would so kindly answer these or even some of them I would love it!

_1. Does Jhin love anyone? Like his family or did he just give up on them? 2. Does Jhin kill anyone he sees or does he try to find someone that meets the requirements for his art? 3. How would he feel about teaching his art? Kinda like having a sidekick? 4. If he did have a sidekick would he picture killing him one day or hope that his student would kill him in a beautiful way? (like surpassing him) 5. What does Jhin think of Syndra and Irelia? 6. zooms in on Jhin's boots WHAT ARE THOSE?!?! _

I am really happy with Jhin and I love the concept you guys have gave him! Keep up the good work!

2.I doubt he simply kills anyone he sees.He is an artist and where would be the art in killing just random bystanders?He probably kills people that he finds interesting,where he sees the potential for a dramatic "act". Also keep in mind that he currently works for ionia,so his superiors choose his victims(though it was said that he always kills 4 people,so I guess some additional deaths always happen as well).

3.Given his character I'd assume he'd love teaching his art,I mean one of his lines talks about how others will appreciate his art eventually.The question would be rather if he'd find someone who sees killing the same way he does...

4.I guess that getting killed by his student in a beautiful way would make him proud(and kinda reliefed,given that he is more or less addicted to killing),can't say if he'd kill him or not though.

6.They are special boots meant to protect him from the recoil of his rifle.

I feel like he'd actually be quite sociable if you met him in a coffee shop and wanted to chat. He's polite and friendly and overall harmless... unless you inspire him. Then you're toast.
