The Samira vs Jhin matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 265 recent matches analyzed, Jhin wins with a 51.7% win rate compared to Samira's 48.3%, giving Jhin a 3.4 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Jhin controls the early laning stage, but Samira outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Jhin needs to press advantages before Samira reaches their power spikes, while Samira should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Jhin leads by 0.9s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. While Jhin is slightly favored, Samira can absolutely win this lane through smart trading patterns and wave management. Focus on playing around your cooldowns, conceding CS only when necessary, and capitalizing on Jhin's mistakes. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
