Who counters Jhin and who Jhin beats

Jhin hits like a cannon, but the cannon has rules. He fires only four shots before a long, helpless reload, and he has no dash and no escape beyond the move speed his crits hand him. His long range Deadly Flourish only roots targets that are already marked, recently hit by an ally, or caught in one of his lotus traps, so on its own it is just damage and his lockdown can be denied. To beat Jhin, catch him mid reload, dive him while he is stuck on the ground, or simply out sustain and out scale the patient sniper who needs a clean window to do work. Mobile threats that close the gap, enchanters who peel and shield his burst, and carries who out range him in the late game all give him real trouble. When you pick Jhin, you are committing to a fragile artillery carry, so you want a team that screens for you and a lane that lets you shoot in peace.
