Jhin & Zyra Synergy

Why this duo works

Zyra's plants can tag opponents to open Jhin's long-range root, and her own root can extend that catch into a second layer of crowd control and poke. The effect is +3.0pp across 2,385 High Elo games and +1.8pp across 5,958 Low Elo games.

Measured in High Elo: this duo wins 1.9pp more often than expected over 2,385 games.

Playing the duo

Damage from Zyra's plants counts as allied damage for Jhin's Deadly Flourish, letting him root a champion after a plant shot lands; Zyra's Grasping Roots can then add its own root to the sequence.

Zyra's ranged plant pressure and Jhin's long-range root support a poke-and-pick lane that can also help them contest push and damage opponents under their turret.

How to play as Jhin

Look for the plant hit or Zyra's root as your cue to cast Deadly Flourish; its long range and ability to pass through minions let you extend the catch without walking up first.

How to play as Zyra

Let a plant attack mark the enemy bot laner, then use Grasping Roots as Jhin follows with Deadly Flourish; the extra root makes your slower skillshot easier to land and keeps the target in range for more poke.
