Overall, Jhin sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Akali. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN.

This may signal that Akali supports by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that her support also helps increase the round's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Akali.

Is Jhin better when played alongside Akali?

There is no ideal synergy for Jhin that will always be his ideal synergy. However, Akali is a very typical ally for Jhin. By locking into the same team as Jhin, she lowers their win rate by -1.0% to 50.0%. This demonstrates that there is a weak synergy between Jhin and Akali that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Akali has a greater difficulty than Jhin. That means you must be cautious when finding Akali allies to fight alongside, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to do well with you.

Playing on the same side, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to dish out massive AD. Together, these champs should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.

Conversely, by bringing Jhin and Akali together, you will not be giving your side much protection for burst damage. We recommend you have other champs on your team that fills this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Akali ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
