Jhin vs Twitch

Confidence highUpdated Jun 7, 2026

Overview

This lane turns on punishing Twitch's last-hit attempts with fourth shot and (Q) bounce angles.
Jhin wins short trades with burst and roots, but struggles in extended DPS fights against Twitch.
Hold wave thin to maximize fourth-shot pressure and avoid giving Twitch stealth windows to engage.

Trading pattern

Punish Twitch's last-hit animations when fourth shot is ready and enemy support cannot zone.
Use (Q) bounce through low-health minions to harass Twitch stepping forward for CS.
Hold (W) root for marked targets after support CC, trap damage, or poke to secure trades.

Danger windows

(Q) stealth with support follow-up creates kill threat if you overstep without vision.
Avoid trading when Twitch's poison stacks enable (E) burst damage after prolonged poke.
Do not step forward for CS if enemy support controls brush or engage zone, especially during your reload.

Early game

Use first three waves to keep wave thin and punish Twitch stepping up for caster minions.
Prioritize level 2 poke with (W) after support CC or trap damage to root Twitch.
Avoid pushing without trap or support coverage to deny Twitch safe stealth re-entry angles.

Power spikes

Fourth shot ready: punish Twitch's CS attempts and force him to give up farm or use autos on minions.
Level 6 (R): use long-range execute to punish low-health Twitch retreating through river or choke points.
First completed damage item: increase burst threat, making one fourth-shot punish lead to recalls or plates.

Win conditions

Convert fourth-shot lane pressure into recalls and plate gold to gain item advantage.
Use traps and (R) to zone Twitch during dragon setups and force predictable movement.
Leverage support-root follow-ups on (W) to create picks and snowball lane control into objectives.
