Guide to Synergizing Jhin and Malphite

Tips for Playing as Jhin with Malphite

Your ultimate deals significantly less damage to enemies with full health. Look to pick off weakened targets as they run away.

Deadly Flourish has incredible range. When approaching a fight be sure to look ahead for enemies that could be rooted.

You can still cast your spells while reloading. Use them to fill the down time.

Advice to Understand How Malphite Will Play

Despite his abilities scaling on Armor, some games require Malphite to get Magic Resist. When those games occur, try getting Aegis of the Legion, Mercury's Treads, and Guardian Angel.

Armor naturally reduces the rate that attacks go through Granite Shield, so Brutal Strikes will strengthen the shield against physical damage.
