Hello summoners, and welcome to another SenpAI’s quick guide. This time, we will examine the best Jhin skins in League of Legends. As a marksman with a unique playstyle, Jhin packs a lot of burst power and can completely dominate opponents given the right conditions.
The Virtuoso has a total of 7 skins in League of Legends, including two World Championship skins. Of these 7, Dark Cosmic Jhin is the best Jhin skin but also the most expensive. Since all his other skins cost the same amount (1350 RP), you can pick any one of them based on our quick points.
7. SKT T1 Jhin (Legacy)
Price
1350 RP
Release Date
27-Jun-2017
Skin Bio
Honouring Bang’s winning performance as Jhin during the 2016 World Championship. This is Bang’s second World Champion skin, following his win with SKT at the 2015 World Championship.
Skin Attributes
SKT T1 Jhin uses the team’s logo and theme for its effects and appearance. This skin is most notable for its recall animation that features the champion dancing, unlike his other skins.
On the other hand, SKT T1 Jhin’s effects can be underwhelming when compared to the other options.
6. PROJECT: Jhin
Price
1350 RP
Release Date
22-Nov-2017
Skin Bio
After a botched surgery, Jhin went from being a black-market augment hacker to a notorious mechanized killer for hire. Still programmed with a taste for high-clearance upgrades, the tech Jhin takes from his victims has left him with a severe personality fragmentation and a dark vision for the future of PROJECT… and humanity.
Skin Attributes
PROJECT: Jhin amplifies the champion’s use of superb firearms effects through its animations, textures, and even SFX. It adds a voice filter to the champion to better portray his augmented nature.
However, this skin sometimes feels like it is missing something. It could be deliberate since its bio indicates a lack of a single personality.
5. High Noon Jhin
Price
1350 RP
Release Date
01-Feb-2016
Skin Bio
Need a man dead? Hire any sun-baked lunatic looking to make a name for themselves in the Old West. Need to set an example? Then you should seek out the mechanical assassin known as Jhin-and no one will ever forget what happens at the crossroads of murder and art.
Skin Attributes
Despite being the oldest Jhin skin in League of Legends, High Noon Jhin has some of the smoothest animation and effects on the champion. Most veteran League of Legends players still hold a preference for this skin because it lacks flashy particles that can disturb a player’s focus.
4. Blood Moon Jhin
Price
1350 RP
Release Date
09-Feb-2017
Skin Bio
Ink-mage, trained assassin, master of ceremonies: Jhin is all this and more, a grandiose figure whose encyclopedic knowledge of centuries-old rituals fuels the Blood Moon’s hellish summoning rites. He knows the name of every demon and how to direct them into a still-living vessel.
Skin Attribute
Blood Moon Jhin adds a mythical element to the champion’s abilities and animations through its VFX and SFX. The skin also has the best icon for Jhin’s E -Captive Audience among all his skins.
However, its recall animation is quite underwhelming compared to the skin’s bio.
3. Shan Hai Scrolls Jhin
Price
1350 RP
Release Date
28-Jan-2021
Skin Bio
A mad god who resides within a mysterious painting older than creation, Jhin has grown bored of the canvas in which he dwells and wishes to bring his art to new, fresh eyes. He has begun weaving the edges of the painting into the fabric of the multiverse, hoping to escape his confinement.
Skin Attributes
Shan Hai Scrolls Jhin does a better job of portraying the champion in a mythic light than Blood Moon did. It also has smoother textures and particles on all his abilities compared to the other skin.
With an impressive recall animation, this skin is a worthy alternative for anyone who does not want a championship Jhin skin.
2. DWG Jhin (Legacy)
Price
1350 RP
Release Date
29-Apr-2021
Skin Bio
Honouring Ghost’s winning performance as Jhin during the 2020 World Championship.
Skin Attributes
DWG Jhin has the softest and coolest effects you will find on any current Jhin skin. Its weapons and bullets effects have a crit texture that indicates when you crit. This skin also manages to blend flashiness and smoothness into one.
However, you can only purchase it during international League of Legends championships when the vaults open. Also, some Jhin mains find its recall animation underwhelming.
1. Dark Cosmic Jhin
Price
1820 RP
Release Date
13-Jun-2019
Skin Bio
Jhin was an interstellar entity, consumed by the Dark Star and given new purpose. Now, his ageless mind is infected by visions of omnipotence and consumed by an insatiable hunger. He scours entire regions of space seemingly on a whim, using the remnants to create bizarre, silent objects d’art.
Skin Attributes
Dark Cosmic Jhin takes first place because it features a completely new set of effects and animations for the champion. It also does a great job of portraying the champion as a celestial entity.
It is important to note that this skin allows Jhin to fire his pistol without touching it and reload with four hands (2 tangible hands, 2 spectral hands). Cool right?!
On the downside, Dark Cosmic Jhin is also the most expensive Jhin skin.
