Want to know how to beat Expert Jhin in the Tournament of Souls? In this engaging spin-off of League of Legends, you knock out your grim and heartless foes one by one in Runeterra. If you’ve completed the game’s Story Mode, you’ll deal with tougher versions of these enemies in Expert Mode. Jhin is your next enemy, who will give you a hard time, requiring you to use all of Samira’s capacity. This guide will show you how to beat Jhin in Expert Mode in League of Legends: Tournament of Souls.
Jhin is the enemy you will encounter after Naafiri in Expert Mode. Jhin deals burst damage and can quickly melt your HP bar. The mechanics of beating Jhin are actually very simple and mostly about watching out for Jhin’s 4th shot, just like in League of Legends. The Samira kit you will use for Jhin should be about blocking his hits and dealing heavy damage. So, let’s see what strategies you can use to beat expert Jhin.
The best Samira kit against Jhin is: Q1 | W2 | E3 | R1
- As soon as the match starts, damage Jhin by spamming the E + Q combo. E skill will deal high damage to Jhin and give you 1 style grade. Her Q skill, on the other hand, will add to this damage by taking advantage of the weapon swap. You can harass him this way until Jhin gets to his fourth shot.
- You have to keep an eye out for Jhin’s 4th shot. You can track Jhin’s hits under his HP bar, and his fourth shot appears to be purple. Jhin waits for a short while before shooting before firing the bullet. At this point, you should use your W skill before the bullet hits you by keeping the timing under control.
- Jhin occasionally sets up a trap under you, dealing serious damage. If you have your W skill on hand, you can use it to block the trap damage. Sometimes you can be caught off guard as it is not clear when Jhin will throw this trap. However, the trap damage will not put you in a very difficult situation, unlike Shaco‘s traps.
- You should use your R skill when Q and E are almost off cooldown. This will allow you to make full use of your crit damage. Moreover, you don’t want Jhin to hit the fourth while you’re using your Ultimate. So set the timing well.
- Jhin’s Ultimate also deals extra damage in the fourth, just like his normal attacks. Therefore, save your W skill for Jhin’s 4th Ultimate shot just as you would block normal attacks.
