Guide to Synergizing Jhin and Swain

Tips for Playing as Jhin with Swain

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 Swain Will Play

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.
