Jhin is banned in about 3.8% of games at this tier, one figure for the whole champion since bans happen before roles are picked. What ban rate measures.
Jhin's ADC win rate is 0.1 percentage points above an even 50% — Should I Dodge's win-probability model varies by about 4.8 percentage points of standard deviation from lobby to lobby across all ranks, purely from which champions get drawn, so this gap is smaller than that noise, not solid evidence the champion is unusually strong or weak right now.
Jhin is tracked in exactly one role at this tier scope, ADC — so there's no ambiguity below about which lane the rest of this page's per-tier, threat, and counters reporting describes.

Our Read on Jhin
Reading the Numbers
Positioning and setup matter more than raw stats for Jhin, which is why beating him usually comes down to respecting his traps and staying out of his four-shot rhythm rather than needing to deny him in draft -- his ban rate stays low relative to how often he's picked. His fixed attack speed means he never scales the way a normal marksman does, trading that ceiling for a kit built around burst on the fourth shot and a long-range execute ultimate that rewards patience over reaction speed.
When a Teammate Locks Jhin
A Jhin teammate's damage builds toward a guaranteed critical on his fourth shot, so a trade that ends before he reaches it leaves most of his output on the table. Give him lane control to build that rhythm uninterrupted, and once his ultimate comes online, ask him to hold an angle on fights instead of stepping into the middle of one -- four long-range execute shots from a safe position are worth more than anything he does up close.
When the Enemy Has Jhin
Watch your footing around an enemy Jhin more than his aggression: his traps reveal and slow anyone who steps on one, and his ultimate can pick off a low-health ally from well outside normal engage range. Keep track of his shot count in fights, since the fourth is the one that hurts, and avoid grouping predictably once his ultimate is ready -- all four shots travel in a straight line and can only hit what's standing in it.
