Who Wins
- You win pre-6 2v2s with Leona's engage tools and your superior DPS in extended trades.
- Post-6 you dominate as your R gives you gap-close potential that Jhin cannot match even with Nautilus peel.
Synergy & Trading
- Follow up immediately when Leona lands E with your E dash and Q poke, then use W for the bleed damage.
- Save your R for when Jhin uses his movement speed from crits to try escaping.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Look to freeze waves near your tower to create longer lanes for all-ins with Leona.
- Push hard when you have kill pressure to deny Jhin CS and force him into dangerous positions.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't use R too early in fights as Nautilus can interrupt it with Q, wait for him to use his hook first.
- Never chase too deep without vision as Jhin's W can root you for jungle ganks.
