Why didn't you do Unranked to Masters with Jhin Mid? Well, I was enjoying Jhin Mid and people wanted to learn how to play it too because they're sick of Jhin ADC in this meta. The end result was that Jhin Mid is certainly more impactful than ADC Jhin because you've got more freedom and opportunities. So, I decided to do Unranked to Diamond to see how well Jhin Mid would do in the challenge, as well as learning all the different match-ups. The higher in elo you go, the smaller champion pools become four several roles. I decided I'd start maining him in the Mid lane now and would like to gain extensive knowledge on match-ups. I started having fun when I played Jhin Mid on any of my Diamond accounts. However, I've never truly mained it, so I never got around to learning every and all match-ups. I've always played Jhin Mid as a secondary role. I've always played Mid Jhin as my secondary role and until now have acknowledged ADC as the better role four him. So, I thought to myself, " Lucian, Ezreal, Corki, Graves and Quinn have found success in other roles away from ADC, maybe Jhin can as well?". I don’t get the chance to pop off myself and be impactful as often, in part due to the Ardent Censer meta. Either a teammate gets fed and carries me, or I'm 0-0 till minute 15 and the enemy does something incredibly questJhinable which leads to us winning. Winning games in Diamond as ADC Jhin, to me, has been a coin flip. People now only want to play Ardent Censer supports and will refuse to play anything else. Unlike an Ardent Censer-buffed Twitch or Kog'Maw, Jhin needs an aggressive support to all-in. Everyone now has heals and shields in lane, and thus Jhin cannot all-in by himself. Jhin cannot outscale Ardent Censer abusers. The current Ardent Censer meta is incompatible with "The Virtuoso".
