Who Wins
- Pre-6: You win through superior poke range and burst potential with E+Q combos.
- Post-6: You maintain advantage with R true damage and better pick potential than Soraka's defensive ultimate.
Synergy & Trading
- Use E to zone and set up Jhin W roots, then follow with Q for guaranteed damage.
- Poke consistently with Q while maintaining distance from Jinx rocket range and Soraka Q silence.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam when you have lane priority after successful poke sequences force enemies to recall.
- Best timing is after level 6 when your R can secure kills in skirmishes with jungle or mid.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught in Jinx rocket range without E available for self-peel.
- Avoid using E aggressively when Soraka has Q available as the silence will prevent your follow-up damage.
