How it works
General
- You build Attack Damage and Lethality to boost damage from your abilities.
- You rush Axiom Arc to reduce cooldown of your ultimate, so you can use it more often.
- You try to make the most of your First Strike procs to earn gold and deal damage.
- The easier version of this build is to take Dark Harvest instead of First Strike.
How to play
General
- This is a specialization of regular Lethality Jhin build that is all about big ults and ulting very often, thanks to Axiom Arc.
- Build Axiom Arc first, follow up with Mythic Item, then with Lethality/AD items.
- It is okay to not buy boots, or to sell them in the late game. Use 6th slot for more Lethality! You are covered with Ghost.
- Since 14.1 Boots become even more optional, since you can get Youmuu's Ghostblade!
- Wait for First Strike and proc it with your combo, to deal damage and earn gold.
- Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
- With this build, your primary source of damage is going to be abilities. Use Q and W!
- Auto attack and count! Even with AD and Lethality items, your autoattacks are quite powerful. Every 4th shot is basically execute, that scales off with enemy missing health.
- You can rush Axiom Arc if you want to make this build ult-centric!
Tips and Tricks
General
- Your fourth shot is powerful execute. Early on, save Jhin 4th shot for harass or even kill.
- Before using Ultimate, you can place traps before you, so enemies will have a hard time getting to you in time.
- Simple combo: place trap and wait for the enemy to come, then W him, this way he takes tons of damage.
- Harder combo: traps stack, you can place multiple in one spot and wait for an enemy with W.
- You can use traps for bush control. You can also use them to annoy enemy team - when enemies are under turret, put traps in minions weaves to trigger them, or behind turret.
- Slow enemy push by placing traps on the minions' path.
- Do not wait for 'special moment' and just use R on the enemy team when possible!
Riot
- Deadly Flourish has incredible range. When approaching a fight be sure to look ahead for enemies that could be rooted.
- Your ultimate deals significantly less damage to enemies with full health. Look to pick off weakened targets as they run away.
- You can still cast your spells while reloading. Use them to fill the down time.
