| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Jhin | Jhin's long-range first shot and W threat beat your weak level-1 trade. |
| Level 2 | Jhin | At level 2 his burst and root setup punish any step-up. |
| Level 3 | Jhin | Level 3 gives him full W root + 4th-shot combo pressure over you. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | By level 4 it's even -- you can dodge W and abuse his reloads. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 5 stays skill-based as your Encore threat matures against his ult. |
| First item | Jhin | First item re-spikes his empowered damage and W root over you. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Late game evens out: your AoE peel and CC answer his pick burst. |
Jhin out-trades you levels 1-3: his W root threat, first-shot range, and burst 4th bullet punish you if you step up carelessly, so farm from range, track his reload, and don't stand in W range after taking chip damage.
