How to play Jhin in ARAM Mayhem

Jhin is a solid, middle-of-the-pack pick in ARAM Mayhem on patch 26.21: tier B, #114 of 173 champions, with a 48.2% win rate over 2,754,056 games. It is also one of the most picked champions, showing up in 12% of games, so expect to see it on both sides.

88% of Jhin's damage to champions is physical, so enemy armor is what slows it down.

Most Jhin players go Crit (88% of games), but the Lethality path, lethality items for burst, is ARAMKit's top-ranked build: Hubris, Axiom Arc and The Collector, with a 51.1% win rate. On this build 50% of players skip boots and spend the slot on another item.

The cards that do best on Jhin are Weapon of Destiny, BEES!!! and Clown College. Cards built around attack damage fill most of the top of its list, followed by movement speed. Most of its S-tier cards are prismatic, so a prismatic offer is often the pick that shapes the game. Skip Shrink Ray and Brass Blast when you can: they do worst on Jhin. A pair to look for: The Boom and the Bass with BEES!!!.

Take Flash and Ghost (75% of players). Max Q (Dancing Grenade) first, then W, then E.
