Tips for Playing as Zilean with Jhin
Time Warp is an effective way to enable allies to finish off enemies, or escape from a losing battle.
Chronoshift is a powerful deterrent to attacking your carries, but casting Chronoshift too early in a fight can cause the enemy to switch targets too soon, making it less effective.
You can combine the use of Time Bomb and Rewind to place two Time Bombs on a target quickly. Placing the second bomb will detonate the first and stun all nearby enemies.
Advice to Understand How Jhin Will Play

Deadly Flourish has incredible range. When approaching a fight be sure to look ahead for enemies that could be rooted.
You can still cast your spells while reloading. Use them to fill the down time.
