There is no ideal synergy for Jhin that will always be his top ally. Yet, Caitlyn is a very bad companion for Jhin. By locking into the same team as Jhin, she lowers their win rate by -5.1% to 45.9%. This signals that there is an easy to overcome and exploit bond between Jhin and Caitlyn that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.
Caitlyn has a lower difficulty than Jhin. That means Jhin players don't need to be very careful when finding Caitlyn comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.
Playing alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
Conversely, by bringing Jhin and Caitlyn together, you will not be providing your other teammates much engage potential. We recommend you pick other champions on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's abilities.
