League of Legends (LoL) Question: Why is Jhin bad?

Jhin's been on and off again in terms of how high priority a pick he is. I wouldn't say that he's particularly weak at the moment; the meta just doesn't favor him.

Lethality items aren't in too bad a spot right now, but there are a lot of slow games at the moment, often involving some beefy frontliners like Tahm Kench and Alistar, so Lethality ADCs don't get to push their advantage as hard as in scrappier metas. Fleet Footwork was also buffed, giving scaling ADCs some breathing room in laning phase which makes them stronger picks.

I think Jhin is fine in solo queue and/or in games where the enemy team comp isn't super front-line heavy and safe. He did just get a small buff to his ultimate recently which is pretty nice. He's just not a hypercarry, so he can't fulfill the same role as some of these popular scaling ADCs like Tristana, Xayah and Kog'Maw.

Try Jhin with a Xerath support, both of you running Arcane Comet. It's pretty strong in lane.

I think Jhin isn't weak at all. He might fall off in late game, yes, but his laning phase is awesome. He can farm early with his Q and his W is one of the strongest harass spells in the game. Paired with an aggressive support like Brand you are almost guaranteed to win lane. However, as it was said above, he's not a hypercarry. Jhin is a strong laner, but his late game is weak. That's probably the reason that his winrate is getting lower compared to stronger late-game champs like Twitch Xayah or Ezreal. He's currently off-meta: a small buff and he'll be back at the top.

Not bad at all as for me
