The explosion, which they're now guaranteed to be caught inside, chunks them down further, setting the stage for Jhin's fourth and final bullet. Once they trigger, Jhin can follow up immediately with Deadly Flourish, damaging his target and rooting them inside the trap's slow zone as it ticks down toward zero. As the gank starts, Jhin and his allies work best initiating the attack and corralling their targets towards their pre-set traps.

Here's the thing, though: when Jhin correctly plans for this, when he places a few of his Captive Audience traps as he falls back, he'll be perfectly placed to call on his jungler and slowly close the noose around his hapless opponents' necks. Still, Jhin's low attack speed will often see him pushed under tower, and having to fire off his shots to last hit instead of harass. That's where the Virtuoso can turn to Dancing Grenade, using the bouncing canister to secure last hits from relative safety, and even apply effective harassment if his opponents stick too close to their minion waves. Jhin's basic attack range is distinctly average at best, making him relatively easy to harass in lane. In lane, he's best off saving his valuable bullets for last-hitting, keeping track of his ammo count and looking for moments when he can expend his fourth bullet - his deadliest - on his lane opponent. While most look to whittle their opponents down with a constant barrage of sapping attacks, Jhin's fastidious to the extreme, and thrives when he handpicks his opportunities to strike.
