Samira vs Jhin Matchup Summary

The Samira vs Jhin matchup is a very close matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 342 recent matches analyzed, Samira wins with a 51.5% win rate compared to Jhin's 48.5%, giving Samira a 2.9 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Samira controls the early laning stage, but Jhin outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Samira needs to press advantages before Jhin reaches their power spikes, while Jhin 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. Samira has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Jhin's strengths is important. Trade when cooldowns are favorable, track the enemy jungler, and build toward your strongest item spikes to convert the slight advantage into a decisive lead. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Farming
6.2Samira
6.2Jhin

Damage

Utility
0.1Samira
1.0Jhin
Jhin brings significantly more crowd control than Samira, with 0.9 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Jhin far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Samira should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
907Samira
521Jhin
Samira vastly out-sustains Jhin, healing and mitigating 386 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Samira can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Jhin is forced to recall.
