Week 1 vs the eagles last year was Monday night <| sep |> i like the design , however , $ 35 is outrageous <| sep |> Remember no Russian . <| sep |> There are a couple of things that can be improvedFirst , you should definitely remove the marks of crit . In the current meta , winning lane early is super important and being able to punish the hyper carries twitch , Tristana , Vayne , etc . is more important than ever . Jhin needs as much AD early as possible for this reason . Second , the more meta build is to get essence reaver , into swiftys , into RFC . From there is situational . The questions to ask yourself are do they have a lot of armor ? then get LDR or mortal reminder if they have any hyper healers like Vladimir or Dr . Mundo . Am I being blown up by an AP threat ? get hexdrinker . Do they have a CC ability that is consistently leading to my death ? Get QSS but usually don ' t upgrade to Mercurial until later . If you answered no to all of these questions , then get IE . Third , you usually don ' t need to get a lifesteal item if you didn ' t need QSS on Jhin . Because of the way he should be played in team fights , if you are taking a lot of damage and need life steal , then you are probably not definitely playing him wrong . There are certainly cases to buy BT or Mercurial , but it shouldn ' t be a guaranteed part of your build . Fourth , one of the most important things about getting better with jhin is knowing which items you need to get and WHY . If you are always always always building the same 5 items first , then you are not rarely doing the optimal build for a certain game . Sorry for the long post , hopefully it ' s helpful . Edit Also for masteries it is almost always better to take bounty hunter in the current meta . It ' s honestly broken it ' s a free fire drag if you get all 5 kills . Edit 2 the reason essence reaver is more optimal as a first AD item is because the CDR allows for more ults which is one of the best ults in the game for getting picks . Jhin is a utility ADC , not a hyper carry this is the same reason Ashe goes ER first .
