• Fan the Hammer and Tap Dancer are a recommended combination for Jhin.³
• Wisdom of Ages is a good early augment for Jhin because his passive gives him a large amount of stats with levels.⁴
• For a Jhin build focused on his ultimate, pair him with tank and fighter allies, and build critical strike and lethality items such as Axiom.⁵
• Energized and autocast builds can work with Jhin; one possible combination pairs Fan the Hammer with Tap Dancer.⁶⁷
• Hellfire Hatchet, Perplexity, and Liandry's Torment follow the first prismatic item in a trap-focused build; Serpent's Fang is a later option if no ally has it.⁸
• A trap-focused build pairs well with an AP Shaco ally.⁸⁹
• Lucidity boots fit a trap-focused build with Duskblade, Prowler, Diamond-Tipped Spear, or Twilight Edge as the first prismatic item; with Twilight Edge, Gunblade is the suggested second item.⁸

• Jhin's fourth shot always critically strikes, which can pair with Go for the Head.¹⁰
• A 100% critical strike chance can be a big power spike for Jhin because it makes him faster.¹¹
