- Corner Jhin on the back line and put Rammus in front of it.
- Split Jhin and Karma across the back line so a single area spell can't hit both.

When to play Voyager Jhin
Strengths
- Big power spike once Gnar hit 3 stars
- Two damage threats (Jhin and Karma) make itemizing flexible
- Rarely played, so its units are usually free
- Strong mid game once the reroll units are upgraded
Weaknesses
- Needs Jhin and Karma at high cost, which can be hard to hit
- Falls off hard if someone else is rerolling Gnar
Strategic Tips
Economy
Reach 50 gold, then slow roll at level 6 with only the excess until Gnar are 3-starred.
Itemization
Build Infinity Edge, Last Whisper, and Deathblade on Jhin.
When to pivot
Scout at 2-1 and 3-2: if two or more players hold your core units, or you haven't found any by 3-2, move into one of the comps on the Similar Comps tab instead of forcing Voyager Jhin.
